People have been saying "MTV sucks because it doesn't play music anymore" for awhile

Now it's "History Channel sucks because it doesn't play history anymore"

Or "TLC sucks because it doesn't have learning anymore."

Or "Discovery Channel sucks because it doesn't play documentaries anymore."

Man, cable is just terrible now.

It is unironically one of my favorite shows.

I just love the low-fi stunts. It was stuff my friends I did back then too, only not on tape, or for internet clout. Just bored teenagers.

My all time favorite stunt is just them chilling in some small town. They decide to just go out in a field nearby with bikes. They setup a dumpy ramp to launch over a creek. You know it won't work, and it doesn't. Just ends in a crash. That's the sort of middle class teenage male stupid that was possible in the pre 9/11 era. No pressure for internet fame or anything. Just garden variety stupid for its own self indulgent sake.

That's why I love the show even now. Very nostalgic.

I liked Jackass and Viva La Bam and Wildboyz, but there wasn't much else about MTV at the time I liked besides Beavis and Butthead re-runs or something like that.

If you want the good shit, there's plenty of respectable channels on YouTube that do it better than they ever did

Yeah, Youtube pretty much replaced all those channels for me. That and streaming services really makes you question how much life support cable TV has left.

Clone High was where it was at. MTV definitively crashed when they cancelled that show.

Irregardless, for all intensive purposes, I could care less.
