I have had it!!!



My sister always watches MTV...

Where do I start?

[Begin Rant]

How about, "I want a famous face"



This is a show that encourages plastic surgery for young women and men who feel they are not adequate for today's society. In my opinion plastic surgery is not wrong if you have been horribly mutilated in an accident but, just because you want bigger boobs like Pam Anderson is outrageous! (Porn stars do not count) MTV advocates this kind of stuff to young kids and teens!

On one show, a man came in and said he wanted to look like J Lo. MTV thinks that trans-sexuals are fine to show on TV on a regular basis. As Mike Savage says, "perversity is diversity!". In MTV's eyes everyone has to be accepted no matter what the case.




Next is, "Meet the Barkers"!

A skank and a punk rocker marry and have a child. The father has tattoos and piercings covering his WHOLE body! He even spikes his baby child's hair. I went so far as asking why the hell would they raise a child like that? My sister replied that these were "cool" people. Cool people? Why would these "cool" people be dry-humping while they are drunk on NATIONAL TV! That's how MTV spins things and brain-washes normal teens. I wonder why a majority of young people are liberals...





Up next is "The Inferno"!

I am against affirmative action but, to go as far as putting flamers on a TV show to just to have equality... Who next? Neo-nazi midgets have to have a spot on a TV show? Whenever my sister gets the remote I say, "You can watch MTV as long as there are no gay people". I am not a homo-phobe but as soon as she changed the channel to MTV, the camera was in a gay dance club. Three males were grinding on each other. WHY DO PEOPLE WANT TO SEE THIS! My sister is a fag-hag like most females. There has to be a demand for this shit to come on OVER and OVER again...

What the fuck happened to music on MTV? Fuck, I don't remember seeing any good music EVER on MTV.

Now I will rant on rap in another post...



Grammar-nazis can sue me because I don't care!

Agreed. MTV lost it a long time ago. Real world is my favorite rant. They can't just go out and pick some real people to live together......NOOO......you have to have a bunch freaks, maybe a real religious one and then a militant fag or lesbian. I wish they would pull the plug and start over. I want my MTV Back, In Stereo!!!!!!!!

Poll added...

Believe it or not, once upon a time, MTV actually played music videos. Really. Honest.

That's not even the worst of it. They have a show where multimillionaire actors fawn over the quaintness of foreign poverty, because it's environmentally friendly.  They'd probably throw a chair at their personal assistant if they messed up their latte orders, but we're expected to think living in a dirt-poor region is "cool"?

Celebs Ignore Death, Poverty on MTV Enviro Series
By Marc Morano

April 22, 2005

(CNSNews.com) - A new MTV series features Hollywood celebrities praising the developing world's primitive lifestyles as earth-friendly -- despite those poor nations' high infant mortality rates and short life expectancies.

The eco-tourism show, called "Trippin'," premiered on March 28 and was heavily promoted in the runup to Earth Day. The show encourages environmental awareness and lauds traditional tribal lifestyles, which lack running water, electricity and other basic infrastructure.

The MTV series features actress Cameron Diaz and a rotating crew of "her close, personal friends [who] think globally and act globally." They tour developing nations, including Nepal, Bhutan, Tanzania, Honduras and visit remote villages in Chile.

Actress Drew Barrymore, who reportedly earns $15 million a film, told MTV viewers in one episode that after spending time in a primitive, electricity-free Chilean village, "I aspire to be like them more."

Barrymore, apparently enthralled by the lack of a modern sanitary facilities, gleefully bragged, "I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal. It was awesome."

The 32-year-old Diaz, who earns a reported $20-million a movie, boasted that the cow-dung slathered walls of a Nepalese village hut were "beautiful" and "inspiring," and she called the primitive practice of "pounding mud" with sticks to construct a building foundation "the coolest thing."

Diaz also criticized the lifestyles of many Americans after visiting an indigenous village in Chile. "It's kinda gotten out of hand how much convenience we think we need," she said.

Despite the celebrities' praise for the primitive life, "Trippin'" shows them flying on multiple airplanes and chartering at least two helicopters and one boat to reach remote locations over the course of the first four episodes.

The series also showed the celebrities being chauffeured to the airport in a full-size Chevy SUV -- despite several on-screen, anti-SUV factoids noting how environmentally unfriendly SUVs are.

Diaz, who starred in "Charlie's Angel's" and "There's Something About Mary," travels the world "in the name of the Mother Earth" with a host of different celebrities including Barrymore, actresses Eva Mendez and Jessica Alba, rapper Redman, and rocker Kid Rock.

Environmental groups such as the World Wildlife Fund and the Natural Resources Defense Council also are featured in the series, to provide commentary and analysis on environmental issues.

The first four episodes of the MTV series made scant mention of the difficult economic and social conditions of the countries visited. Bhutan, a country that received particular praise from Diaz for its environmental policies, has one of the highest infant mortality rates (103 infant deaths per 1,000 live births) and lowest life expectancies (54 years) in the world.

By comparison, the United States, which Diaz described as having too much "convenience," has an infant mortality rate of only 6.6 per 1000 and an average life expectancy of more than 77 years.

Located between China and India in the Himalayan Mountains, Bhutan was profiled on the second episode of "Trippin'." Diaz described it as the "only country in the world where forest cover is increasing."

According to CIA estimates, Bhutan has one of the world's smallest and least developed economies, with the country's 2-million people surviving mostly on the crops they grow themselves.

"My favorite thing about Bhutan is they measure their country's wealth, not based on dollar amount but on gross national happiness," Diaz said.

Diaz was happy to learn that 72 percent of the country is still covered in forest. "That is so awesome. I like Bhutan," Diaz said, noting that the country has "maintained a careful balance of Old World tradition and modern convenience."

"Life moves at a different pace here in Bhutan," she said. "The fusion of religion, tradition and a genuine respect for the environment give the whole country a peaceful balance."

Actress Eva Mendez, who accompanied Diaz to Nepal and Bhutan, was inspired by the natural beauty of her surroundings: "Nature is so much fun," she said.

'Poo in the woods'

Throughout their travels, the celebrities revel in the fact that they are in the middle of "nowhere," without running water, electricity, television, radio and the Internet.

When Barrymore (star of "E.T." and "Charlie's Angel's," to name a few of her films) bragged about defecating in the forest, Diaz responded she would like to have the same experience.

"I am so jealous right now, I am going -- I am going to the woods tomorrow," Diaz said. A clearly satisfied Barrymore laughed, repeating, "It was awesome."

Diaz lauded the Nepalese villagers' practice of slathering cow dung as a form of wall plaster used to coat the walls: "Nothing goes to waste. It is beautiful. It is inspiring," she said. "It is incredible to see how in tune these people are with the environment; they are completely self-sufficient, Diaz added.

Daily routines of the local citizenry are featured on the series, including pounding mud with large sticks for hours -- for the foundation of a new monastery in Bhutan.

"I am going to go pound some mud, baby! Mmm," Diaz said to the cameras. "It was the coolest thing to be a part of," she added.

As video of mud-pounding filled the TV screen, Diaz explained, "They (Nepalese villagers) continue to live in harmony with the world around them. It's a way of living very different than what we are used to. It seems to work."

But MTV viewers were not informed that Nepal has an infant mortality rate of nearly 69 deaths per 1,000 live births, about ten times the infant death rate in the U.S. Nor did they hear that life expectancy in Nepal is 59 years.

'They teach me so much'

Bhutan was praised by Diaz because she claimed the residents voluntarily rejected electricity in order to save the "endangered black neck crane."

"These people have decided that keeping the cranes in their valley is more important than having the convenience of electricity," Diaz noted.

"It is admirable that they would give up that convenience, because if they were to build power lines here, the birds would lose their habitat here and disappear from the landscape of Bhutan, ending centuries of tradition," she added.

Diaz was less enthusiastic about the modern American lifestyle: "It's kinda gotten out of hand how much convenience we think we need," Diaz said after visiting an indigenous Chilean village in the fourth episode.

Barrymore praised the Chileans living in a remote, electricity-free village as "people who are walking the walk and doing it [environmentalism]; they teach me so much."

The Hollywood celebrities also took time out from sight-seeing to express concern about proposed development projects in the countries they were visiting. Projects ranging from a proposed highway in the Chilean forest to a proposed aluminum smelter were criticized because of their perceived negative environmental and societal impact.

Diaz offered an alternative to the proposed aluminum factory: "Each of us can make a difference. If everyone recycled the aluminum cans they used, there would be no need for new smelters," Diaz told viewers.

"So stop being a f---ng (bleeped by MTV) pig and recycle your aluminum cans," she added with a laugh.

Diaz also explained her opposition to the proposed highway: "They are going to replace something that is truly unique with something that is everywhere."

'Perverse and immoral'

A critic of the environmental movement condemned the new MTV series.

"There's something perverse and immoral when multi-millionaire Hollywood celebrities head off on junkets in the jungle - and then preach to us lesser mortals about the joys of the simple life, and how we should protect the Earth, conserve energy, prevent global warming, and help the poorest people on our planet continue 'enjoying' their poverty, malnutrition and premature death," Paul Dreissen, author of Eco-Imperialism: Green power/Black Death told Cybercast News Service.

"Life in these developing countries is still nasty, brutish and short. And that there is a reason our parents and grandparents worked so hard to create modern homes and hospitals and technologies, so they could leave behind the unsafe water, dung fires, pollution, rotted teeth, infant mortality and life expectancies half or ours," said Driessen.

"This entire MTV series totally glosses over the hardships and premature death that is right before their eyes. Even mentioning these facts would obviously get in the way of their ideological message, and their determination to turn [MTV viewers] into little ventriloquist's dummies for the sustainable development movement," Driessen explained.

'Love our planet all the time'

After her visit to Chile, Barrymore expressed guilt about not always adhering to earth-friendly practices.

"Like I leave the light on all the time in my house because I want to feel safe. I am so spoiled, I am -- I am going to start conserving," Barrymore insisted.

"It is just overwhelming how important it is to like, love our planet all the time and not take advantage of it," Barrymore concluded.

In an effort to explain the celebrities' use of pollution-generating planes and SUVs to get from one remote location to another, "Trippin'" features a program note at the end of each show, stating: "To reduce global warming, "Trippin'" offset all of the energy used to make this show by supporting renewable energy products." According to the environmental publication Grist Magazine, the MTV series "purchased carbon credits to offset pollution," which was generated as part of producing the series.

An MTV spokeswoman declined to provide a representative of "Trippin'" to comment on this article. Diaz's publicist e-mailed Cybercast News Service, writing, "Sorry, she (Diaz) is not available at this time." Barrymore's publicist said the actress was also unavailable.

"Trippin'" airs Monday nights at 10:30 Eastern time.

MTV is helping to flush the toilet on society, no doubt about it.  I can remember when they actually played music videos.

Yea, and they weren't all rap videos

I agree with you tonight HK.
I thought you weren't coming back to GD

I haven't watched it in quite a few years.

I quit paying attention to MTV somewhere in my early 20s.

I am now officially an old fart becuse they were playing OZZY for Muzak at Walgreens the other week. Yeah I know it wasnt Diary of a Madman, it was Goodbye to Romance, but it was still Ozzy. Im old.

+1 Yeah...MTV blows and is adding to the lack of morals our young ones are growing up with.

"The Man ruined the ozone, and he's burning down the Amazon, and he kidnapped Shamu and put her in a chlorine tank! There used to a way to stick it to The Man—it was called rock 'n' roll. But guess what. Oh, no! The Man ruined that, too, with a little thing called MTV!"

How about the many, many "look at me, I'm rich!" shows?

Cribs, My Super Sweet 16, Rich Girls, etc.

that girl is weird looking

Stay away from it as much as I can.

Fuse has music atleast, sure there's some "pop" culture in it. But atleast they show videos between the spam.

[Dire Straits] "The little faggot in the makeup, yeah buddy, that's his own hair.  The little faggot got his own jet airplane, the little faggot is a millionare..." [/Dire Straits]


MTV doesn't play videos anymore as they actually have a higher profit margin by showing crap shows.  They don't have to pay royalties to record companies and artists, so they can put any garbage on and even if ratings drop they still end up making more money in the end!

No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to watch it...

+1. If all God saw of mankind was MTV, he would immediately burn the planet to a cinder you could carry in your watchpocket.

I am a live-and-let-live person, as long as you don't scare the horses or actively damage the neighbors' property values, but MTV is truly hideous. It seems to promote whatever is hurtful to the welfare of humans individually and collectively.  I have no problem being around homosexuals, and have a number of close friends who are homosexual. MTV doesn't promote the idea that homosexuals are human beings like everybody else. It promotes the idea that they are or should be sex-mad mincing stereotypical faggots coupling as promiscuously as possible. The lefties at MTV are doing a better job killing and alienating fags than Fred Phelps ever has. MTV promotes the idea that black men should be murderous money-hungry misogynists and black women should be whores. MTV is way ahead of the Klan in promoting the idea that if you're white, you don't want black people anywhere around you. It is a hateful, hellish, satanic cesspit. I could rant on, but suffice it to say that figuratively, come the revolution, wall space at the MTV building will be at a premium.

TV sux.

I have not watched MTV since Martha Quinn went off the air.

Tell that to the miget with .45 pointed to my head

Quoted: No one is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to watch it...

100% true, but that's not the poster's complaint. The complaint is that his sister along with millions of other impressionable young people are effectively being babysat or indoctrinated or otherwise influenced by MTV. Yeah, people should pay more attention to their kids -- my kids only watched that crap with me, and I taught them (quite effectively, by the way) that it was freak show populated with degenerates.

It is the same old farts' moan: "It's damaging our impressionable youth;" but after 50 years we have the bastardy, crime, and welfare rates to prove the old farts were right all along. That's the poster's complaint, not your fabricated claptrap about anybody being forced to watch. Nobody "forces" you to listen to Muzak or the clip-clop of your tires on a concrete road, but you nod your head in time nonetheless.

Yep, that's my worry.  The generation who view that garbage as "reality" and try to imitate it.  It 's just dumping gas on the fire by encouraging kids to act like the idiots they see on there.  

That chick works the make-up counter at the Dillards of Memorial City Mall  in Houston. Totally not worth looking at.

MTV is total crap. Mindless folly for the youth to focus on while important issues go unnoticed.

Hey fuck all of you MTV bashers

 Umm. there isn't an option in your poll for, "DAMN!"



I haven't watched MTV since that dating show with Pam Anderson.  Even then it sucked.

Yeah I mean the least they could do like I mentioned in the other thread about the "compassionate Hollywood celebrities flying in their private jets to obscure, troubled places of the world and chastising us for being savages for enjoying what we have."  

It's all about:

NOT:
Pimp My Ride
Room Raiders
Real World
Road Rules
Date my Mom

You should include BET along with MTV.  They have all the same type of shows only they are geared towards the black community.  Many of my fellow coworkers pretty much only watch MTV and BET because of those shows.  It's really sad.

Quoted: TV sux. I have not watched MTV since Martha Quinn went off the air.

I hung with it through many seasons of "Beavis & Butthead."

ehhh...cept for white girls...this kinda tv makes *criminalz* seem like sex gods to them. I guess it wouldnt be so bad if the girls werent 13.

I dont watch it anymore.

Video killed the radio star....

Quoted: TV sux. I have not watched MTV since Martha Quinn went off the air.

Damn you're dating yourself.  I think the last VJ I can remember watching was Matt Pinfield.  Even then he wasn't nearly as entertaining as Adam Curry.

MTV was fine when it first came out, and was actually music videos. Unfortunately, it has long since been converted over to asinine programming, geared toward mindless idiots. I haven't watched it since around 1984 or so.

Randy was my man.

You people are clearly insane.

Anyone with any intelligence at all knows that this kind of stuff has no impact on children because parents can apparently just turn all of popular culture off.

Or so some have told me.

"Pimp my ride" makes me cry when the fup up so many lovely old vehicles that would have been perfect had they just renovated them.

Did you see what they did to that lovely old Trans-Am? Even making it into KITT would have been sacrilege, but what they did to it... those guys are incredibly talented but they have NO taste whatsoever...

I'm not even going to ask what "Date my Mom" was.

"Are you threatening me?"

I was just thinking about B+B the other day when my brother referred to a fast food place as "Burger World" (where they worked). On one episode, they showed a commercial for Burger world. An overdramatic male voice hit a crescendo while extolling the virtues of "...food that's pretty good!"
Does anyone remember the rest of the lyrics?

Another rant about MTV or empty-v...is ASHLEE SIMPSON!
Every time I channel surf...her fucking show is on. I can't stand MTV for pumping a talentless, mindless, good for nothing idiot upon the masses and telling them that they like it...because it's on MTV.


I miss Nina Black, Kurt Loder, Adam, Martha and the rest of the "original" VJ's.

MTV was cool in the 80's...marginal in the 90's and totaly sucky in the 2000's

I wonder if Drew Barrymore ever thought about all 19,000,000 people in New York going to Central Park and taking a dump?

"I took a poo in the woods hunched over like an animal. It was awesome."

Damn hollyweird people are stupid.


I do however, miss Beavis and Butthead. Funny show.

MTV is the biggest crock of shit on TV today.  When I become dictator of the U.S. I plan to hold public executions of all MTV executives.  I'm thinking of locking them in a room with a bulletproof TV that plays MTV continuously, a plastic bag, and some duct tape.  We'll see how long they can stand their own shit.  This will be televised on my state-run TV channel, "MTV-Sucks."

The sad thing is, there is no point to MTV even if it only played music videos.  95 percent of all videos are the meaningless ramblings of talentless morons with Attention Deficit Disorder.
