MTV Unplugged - what ever happened to it? (1 Viewer)

[avernus]

Listening to Neil Young Unplugged. It's probably my favourite. Maybe Nirvana too. But what the hell ever happened to this series? It was great.

 

[Franco]

They pulled the plug on it.

HAHAHAHAHA.

 

[the departed]

[Denny Oubidoux]

yeah yeah!

I like the way 120 minutes has now almost become the only 120 minutes of music on the channel

 

[Gambra]

120 Minutes is on MTV2.. Not MTV.. Whats the problem with MTV not showing music videos anymore? They have like 6 other channels that show vids non stop and all the alt/indie/whatever is on MTV2 almost constantly

 

[muffin]

yeah but if you dont have digital you only have one music channel that barely shows any music but shows repeats of hogan knows best and newlyweds ad nauseum..

 

[Gambra]

Ah pity. Even if MTV did play vids it'd be the crap like Rihanna or Sugababes, shite like that.

 

[Alan Remorse]

shows repeats of hogan knows best and newlyweds ad nauseum..

you say this like it was a bad thing.

 

[avernus]

MTV really became such misery for a channel. Bring back Beavis & Butthead, and Headbangers Ball, Ray Cokes, that Toby Amies dude who wished he was Thom Yorke/Morrissey or whatever, The Head, MTV Unplugged with bands like that don't exist anymore like Alice in Chains.

 

[muffin]

sorry alan..i mean everytime i hear "is this chicken or fish" it actually gets funnier..i never thought that would be possible

and as if that 70s show isnt on enough channels!

 

[avernus]

To be fair, Hogan does know best.

 

[classic seanc]

I don’t like these shows but still I laughed at the Hulkster interviewing potential body guards for his daughter.
“So, if I’m coming up to you and getting in your face what do you do?”
“I’d, eh, take you down”
“What if I have a gun?”
“..em…..sometimes talking is better, t-t-talking your way out of a situation”
“Talking?? I have a gun, if you talk to me I’ll shoot you”


He wasn’t hired.

Two words: HUGO de CAMPOS.

for whatever reason this made me go read Layne Staley's wikipedia entry. fucking depressing.

 

[nlgbbbblth]

the decline of MTV was inevitable given the death of VHS
