Remember when MTV used to be awesome? I barely do, since it stopped being awesome soon after the first time I ever had cable (1996 -- my childhood was robbed). Well, you (and I) are in luck. MTV2 is airing something called MTV2 Legit, which, according to the commercials, is a celebration of all things great about MTV in the '90s: Ren & Stimpy, Jimmy the Cab Driver commercials (starring a young and greasy Donal Logue), and probably some other stuff. Even better, after MTV2 Legit, they are airing reruns of The State -- one of my favorite sketch comedy shows of all-time, featuring several comedians who are now on Reno 911. My only hope is that MTV2 re-airs the famed Sex in the '90s documentary featuring the Dog Brothers. Beggin'.
MTV2 Legit premieres this Friday at 10E/9C on, well, MTV2. That's Channel 333 for you DirecTV subscribers.
the state is soon available on DVD as well.
ReplyDeletei will only watch if they play daria. that was the funniest show.
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome that it will be on DVD soon. I can only hope that it comes with $240 worth of pudding. Aww yeah. Or maybe a chocodile.
ReplyDeleteAh, the Dog Brothers:

By the way...when did the 90s suddenly become much lamer and more embarrassing than the 80s?
Greg, the answer is January 1, 1990.
