Check that. That's the only thing the original MTV has in common with this mess. You remember the days when MTV actually played videos? Current TV and today's MTV also share another common characteristic: they're both unwatchable - for the target audience and anyone else for that matter.
Human Events' Christopher Flickinger reports:
Here’s a little taste of what I had to endure for 90 minutes: a bizarre documentary about a couple and their emotional pregnancy; a story about people in Japan who want to commit suicide with others they meet over the Internet; a video titled “The Perfect Egg” that describes the unusual characteristics people desire in women who donate their eggs to ovum centers; a cultural piece featuring a man in Paris who jumps over fences, on trees, and off staircases, artwork and buildings; a segment on the history of skateboarding; and, a video-essay from a third-world country, which focuses on the tradition of cremation and literally answers the question, “how long does it take for the average human body to burn”.Wow. Great stuff, huh? Pretty def, Al. You're so dang hip it's frightening! Posted by Gary at August 8, 2005 12:20 PM | TrackBack
