Them, apparently. I'm so, so saddened.

The horror.

This show used to be awesome.

What, when the Backstreet Boys were No. 1 for 10 months straight? :)

No.

When Mandy Moore was just getting hot with Candy and Christina was a Genie in a Bottle.

This show used to be awesome.

No.

I think TRL's ascendance pretty much signaled the death knell of MTV.

No.

I always thought it was the, you know, lack of music that signaled MTV's death knell.

Well, that too ... but primarily this:

Geez, to hear you talk, MTV started sucking when the five original VJ's left.

Uh, wait... that's what I thought, too. Never mind... :)

The beginning of the end for MTV was Remote Control.

MTV was great at first, but then it went too far.
