[QUOTE="Fishbone, post: 2907572, member: 40849"] VH1 has hardly any music programming nowadays. I say if you're going to be a music channel at least half of all programming should be music related, with at least a quarter of that being music videos. What used to be a good channel for older music videos and things like metal, hard rock, and old skool/hardcore rap from the 80s and early 90s has been taken over by unwatchable shows like Hogan Knows Best and The Surreal Life. They also show a lot of movies like Showgirls and The Breakfast Club that have nothing to do with music. Put on something like This Is Spinal Tap, Heavy Metal, CB4, Rocky Horror Picture Show, a documentary about music, something, anything, that has the first thing to do with music! The absolute worst is all the countdowns. Who really cares what Hal Sparks or the skinniest fat guy in the Barenaked Ladies thinks of the Godfather movies? I say a boycott is in order! What prompted me to do this is one of their uber lame countdowns yesterday. VH1 spent at least 2 hours doing a countdown on the hundred best toys. Green Army Men weren't even in the top 50. Weeble Wobbles beating out one of the best toys for little kids is ludicrous. All the decisions so far have been awful(Nintendo over Teddy Bears?!?!) and they could have been doing something worthwhile like SHOWING SOME MUSIC RELATED PROGRAMS!!! Its been so fashionable to rip MTV a new one over the exact same issues. I say VH1 is even worse. [/QUOTE]
