Running MTV VMAs thread

[Oz]

Just watched the intro, simply because I wanted to see the buzz about Britney Spears leading in the show. Lousy lip-syncing, hardly any choreography ... absolutely atrocious. She's done.

And then Sarah Silverman rips into Britney for the first two minutes of the monologue.

That's probably about as good as this show is going to get. Back to Jints-Cowboys.

What are these VMAs of which you speak?

 

[Inky_Wretch]

How can MTV still show the Video Music Awards when it doesn't show music videos?

 

[Claws for Concern]

This is supposed to be shown once and only once instead of constant repeats. Sounds like that's a really good thing for those of us without Tivo

Edit: and for those of us who weren't going to watch it in the first place!

 

[Inky_Wretch]

Of course they can't repeat the awards show, it would get in the way of all those scripted teen dramas that claim to be reality shows.

Could JT win BYH over?

He just accepted an award and said he challenged MTV to play more videos!

If JT gets MTV to show videos for 12 hours per day, I'll personally learn the words to every song on his latest album.

I hate to admit it, but it's not a bad CD.

britney's performance was just completely uninspired. thanks for putting down your gin and tonic long enough to grace us with your presence.


thank god for silverman--that was great. definitely takes balls to make fun of people who are actually in attendance.

Britney was AWFUL. I feel like they could have picked a random person out of the audience and he or she would have danced better.

I was stupid to have changed the channel after the "performance." I missed Sarah Silverman ripping her.

 

[Eagles1 in London]

this entire production is sloppy and confusing. might want to stick to cleaning it up in post production and showing it taped later in the week.

 

[cougargirl]

So far the only good "performance" has been Adam Levine and Maroon 5 ... which was cut away to a commercial.

There is nothing dynamic about this show.

Honestly whoever came up with this production format should have his resume updated and an account to Jobing.com

I miss my VMAs that were big, gaudy productions and dare I say treated with some self-proclaimed level of importance. It's like they are just running this show because they forgot to send a press release that it's been canceled.

Timbaland was the producer this year.

Was Britney that bad?

"Thank you, MTV, but play more damn videos. We don't want to see no Simpsons on reality TV."

Some might not like his music, but J-Timberlake spoke the truth there.

Hopefully it was a one-shot deal

great move when justin timberlake told mtv to play more videos and less reality shows for second time, but the fact that he said it right next to the girls from the hills was priceless.

 

[Starman]

Every day, I am prouder and prouder to say I haven't watched 15 minutes of MTV in 15 years. (And this from someone who had it on close to 24/7 for the best part of a decade.)

Can somebody start a grassroots campaign to get this piece-of-**** channel OFF our cable systems?

"I Want My MTV."

"Gone."

 

[Oz]

MTV needs Pacman Jones to make it rain in Vegas again. That would hold my interest.
