Retro MTV Channel

[brannon86]

Who here would love to see a retro MTV channel that played everything from the beginning thru, say the early 90's. MTV SUCKS now....

Last time I saw MTV in 2004 it sucked big time. Since then I've been pay TV free.

I hear they used to play music video's!

VH1 Classic is an OK alternative but sometimes I questione their programming as well...

[fallensaviour]

I get one here from Much Music called "Much more retro" All late sevinties and eighties a couple in the nineties...
Sweet,sweet music.

I watch VH1 a lot more,atleast there reality shows are fun and have something to do with people who were in Music or Hollywood.Mtv sucks now,I'd like to see it go back to the way it use to be

VH1 Classic is starting to show the same crap on regular vh1. Bummer.

Remember Friday Night Videos?

I've been missing the all-video format of MTV for well over ten years now. I would absolutely LOVE a Retro or Classic MTV that played all my old faves from the 80s! With all the radio play 80s hits get these days, it's a wonder MTV hasn't jumped on the bandwagon. Imagine sitting down and watching all these videos from back in the day, one after the other:

* Joan Jett and the Blackhearts - I Love Rock 'n' Roll / Crimson and Clover
* Men at Work - I Come from the Land Down Under / Who Can it Be Now?
* Chess - One Night in Bangkok
* Thomas Dolby - She Blinded ME with Science
* Adam & the Ants - Prince Charming / Stand & Deliver / Goody Two Shoes
* Van Halen - Jump / Hot for Teacher
* Michael Jackson - Billie Jean / Beat It / Thriller!
* Madonna - Like a Virgin, etc.
* ???? - Come On Eileen
* ??? - Dar Commisar
* Talking Heads - Burning Down the House / "Days Go By (?title?)"

etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.!

MTV2 doesn't show as many as they use to. They've sadly gone the MTV route and air the shows that use to air on MTV like Beavis and Butt-Head,Celebrity Death Match,Viva La Bam and so on.

And sadly, even Beavis and Butthead seem to be the same few episodes over and over, at least any time i turn it on to watch them...

I've got a nice 6 hr. video compilation I put together on VHS a few years back that I pop in every now and again...old 80s videos that used to be shown on stuff like VH1's "The Big 80s" and whatnot...Nothing like watching the whole thing on a Saturday afternoon!

[jwyblejr]

I haven't watched VH-1 Classic in awhile. Do they still air We Are The 80s?

* ???? - Come On Eileen

Come on Eileen was by Dexy's midnight runners..other hits included Jackie Wilson Said and Geno
