Major bummer!

      MTV has sucked for at least 10 years now.



    4. 4

      Hopefully this is the beginning to the end of MTV. It was good back in the day but now it's pure crap. Good riddance MTV!

      MTV f%^kin sucks, I would never work for them unless they played more music videos, good ones.

      Its a piece of shit station now anyway….they show nothing but crap. If the recession rids cable of MTV, wouldn't hurt my feelings. There was a time when it was relevant….now its a breeding ground for bad reality shows.

      Maybe if they had a great award show like the MMVAs they'd get more viewers and advertisers.



    8. 8

      maybe they'd make more money and wouldn't have to lay people off if they played more music videos……i thought MTV stood for music television……wonder if they fired Kim, the girl from top model…….



    9. 9

      Good news since they never play music anyway. they suck.



    10. 10

      I hope they fired all who are involved with the shitty casting for The Real World. It has been so boring lately and where is all of the music they use to have??



    11. 11

      About time, mtv has been failing for years…

      FUCK 'EM! MTV sucks. Nothing but garbage on that channel. The last time MTV was cool was somewhere in the mid 90's. As a matter of fact, that whole channel needs to be done away with so more airtime can be given to quality programs.



    16. 16

      i FUCKEN HATE mtv.

      there shows are like ass.
      and the hill have to go.
      wen they gona fire them.



    17. 17

      Maybe they should try playing some videos



    18. 18

      Maybe if they went back the formtat of, you know, PLAYING MUSUC VIDEOS instead of crappy reality shows, viewership would return.



    19. 19

      Well maybe if they took all those damn crappy reality shows off, those poor people laid off might have stood a chance to keep their jobs.



    20. 20

      Take a cue and give yourself a pink slip fat ass!

      "Major bummer"? It's the BEST news I have heard all day! MTV has sucked ass for WAY too long! It was a great network when they started and VERY successful, but they started playing primarily Britney Spears style pop crap, then the way over-done reality shows. It looks like a slow, painful death, but hopefully they will be put out of their misery (and ours) soon.



    22. 22

      And we care why???? MTV is nothing but a pile of garbage that makes stars out of worthless, undeserving cretins like Ceiling Eyes, Speidi, etc.
