But I ask you this: who killed the video star?

I got to go home early today, so I have been kicking back watching a little tube. The channel somehow found its way to MTV, for “Music Television,” as it was known in back in the day. I tell you friends, there was no music to be had … and as I continued to watch, I could feel the chunks rising in my throat. Yes, it was that bad.

Gone are the music videos of yesterday … they have been replaced with a nauseating shows. Granted, these are the people that gave us Laguna Beach and Cribs. And I have to admit, watching the really cute Greek girl learn how to skateboard was an intriguing story. But once you mix in the cheesiness of a dude dating three moms and a girl who has to let her parents choose her boyfriend, you realize you can only take so much.

I watch MTV now and then … but seriously, what happened to the tunes?

That is all.
