Look at the popularity of MTV. They will get all those teeny boppers to unload their parents money for whatever they make. Whatever band is hot they will put them in a "template game." Surprised they haven't done this earlier.

MTV Has the worst shows I've ever watched. They're like sh!tty soap operas for teens... *shivers*. But MTV2 has some good shows that I like, like Pimp my Ride or the Andy Milosomthin' Show, some other "tricked out" car show, Cribs, and maybe some other ones. The other thing I like about MTV2 is that ther are back-to-back episodes almost all the time :)

Too bad it's not Direct TV no more ;P

I remember when all they really played was music and focused on music. I haven't watched mtv since they started making a few different raod rules/real world/look at me while I make a fool out of myself shows. I really liked the videos though.

Is the keyword reach? Or should they have substituted "Grow extra hands so that we can snatch up even more of the almighty dollar from unsuspecting sheeple?"

On another note, can MTV get any farther away from the ideas that originally formed them? Just think, there are probably teeneagers out there who never have knows MTV to actually play "Music."

I would strongly recommend MTV not to...anybody remember that pos Pimp My Ride??? Wow, if that is an indicator of things to come....stay far, far away from game development!

And if you are reading this MTV big wigs...no more dating shows please!
