MTV lived a life in three acts. In its first act, not knowing what to do, it ended up doing what nobody else could: put music on the elision 24/7, with five VJs we still adore, and an uncanny ability to attract visual artists to play with its logo and interstitials. it then subverted your adult entertainment with genre-definint animation, satire, news that we cared about, and became the outlet through which new genres dominated the airwaves. Video, it seemed, had not killed the radio star, but was minting them. Having peaked early in live, its third act lasted most of it. MTV became a mediocre outlet for so-called ”unscripted” television, as complacent and plastic as Michael Grates In Reality Bites And playing second fiddled to online shit. We will miss MTV as much as we have missed what it used to stand for. Here is hoping someone graffitied over this tombstone every week, with multiple colors, and always whispering, “I want my MTV”. Pray it comes back to live and kill the Internet Influencer.
