I really don't know about you all, but I think that MTV has had brain cancer for quite some time now. It's been going on for years actually, and every so often it goes through some sort of chemotherapy and other kinds of hopeless ways to try and save itself and prolong the agonising death-throes. Strangely enough, the annual Video Music Awards have always seemed to help boost the terminally ill channel somewhat, but it's plain to see that there's just no cure for this type of cancer.
The entire Britney Spears comeback on VMA was a total, complete and utter joke. Britney isn't Britney anymore, you can see it in her eyes, the drive and focus is gone, the youth and sweetness (if there ever was) is gone. She seemed to be out of place, confused even, on stage. She couldn't even lip-sync correctly, her hair looked like a hurricane-hit mess. Her overall performance was completely and sadly lame and worse of all, she's fat (at least too fat for her outfit). On top of that, it seems like its a whole bunch of college interns running MTV let alone the VMA's.
Five minutes into the show and they had technical difficulties. Sarah Silverman isn't funny and it was clear the audience didn't like her, she's a dingbat and a complete moron! And the whole Vegas party idea for the show is plain dumb. It's suppose to be an Awards show - not a hotel-room party. You can't advertise "performances by so and so" and only show clips of the performances because they're taking place in some hotel suite upstairs, and not in the main show hall.
They cut to commercials in the middle of a Maroon 5 performance like it was some Tonight Show Band, I was really pissed over that! MTV really shouldn't be on the air anymore. The only MTV series I actually loved was Celebrity Death-match. Those plasticine models were simply hilarious, throw in a murderous celebrity, a cat-fight, and the death match really takes off! I wish they would get those out on DVD soon, I would love to buy those for keepsake.
MTV hasn't been branching out, they've been concentrating a lot (and I mean a lot) to promote hip-hop artistes. Hip-hop isn't the only music in the world, or perhaps that's the way MTV wants to picture themselves. No wonder they're stuck in a cesspool.
Yes, people are allowed to make mistakes, but when you're already sick beyond help or hope, you really can't afford to do anything to help them. It's time for MTV to turn over and die. Perhaps they would consider euthanasia as a more discreet method of killing off.
Somewhere, Kevin Federline is rolling on the floor and laughing his @$$ off...
