Do you remember when MTV actually played music videos?

MTV this days plays videos less. All they do is chit chat about something they thought of. And afterwards they'll play some crappy videos of someone I don't know that makes me the remote control and change channels to something like Discovery Channel or HBO . . :))

Both MTV and sister station MTV2 have a 3-hour overnight block called "AMTV" which combines music videos with news and artist interviews. MTV2 also has a program called "You Rock The Deuce" where viewers can vote on what songs get played. Otherwise both channels are packed with hours of reality shows and other garbage. I also remember the days of MTV being all (or almost all) videos. I heard the latest pop/rock bands during the day and hard rock/metal bands late at night during the "Headbangers Ball." A few of non-music video programs I liked were rebroadcasts of the British comedy show "The Young Ones," the "Half Hour Comedy Hour" and the game show "Remote Control."
