I want my MTV!

My "culture critic"!

It's a bit sad to look at a blog that hasn't got any articles since it's creation. So I thought maybe if I start, you others will be be more motivated. (even if it's just to say I'm wrong).
My comment isn't about politics, but MTV. I always thought about it, as the channel that diffuses primarily musical videos. At the beginning this was it's purpose. (Giving a chance to musicians to enlarge their audience.) But since about a month, I'm able to observe this phenomen ( a thing that I couldn't do a long time ago). The channel metamorphosed into something, that has nothing to do with music. (You can watch more music videos even on Arte.) Instead, you have reality shows from "dusk till dawn". From the "My super sweet sixteen" (a show where the spoiled child of a rich family throws his 16th Birthday, naturally like a superstar, and repeating about a hundred times: "I deserve this!!!!!" ) to "Pimp my Ride" (where MTV chooses the car of a candidate, and tunes it). Even if it's really amusing, to watch this piece of the culture Americain, because it has to be a part of their culture, if it's the favorite channel of the americain youth, Personally, I miss the old Mtv, with Beavis & Butthead, and the music. Of course if you have the cable, you can have 32 other music channels, but neither of them gives you the real, original feeling...

So thats it for my first "culture critic". I hope someone will have something to say about my little writing. If I have other things to say, I'm going to let you know!! :D
