MTV: more than just a music channel

I'm a music lover but i personally think that music doesn't love me... so what do i do... i just watch MTV so i can appreciate some kind of music... to watch my favorite music video... to hear my favorite song... and to see my favorite music artists... so, what makes me think that MTV is more than just a music channel...

Indeed 95% of the shows that are being aired everyday at MTV are pure music related stuff but whats interesting is the other 5%... I personally think that MTV Pilipinas still remains the number one music channel in the Philippines contrary to what MYX say... No doubt MYX was a breakthrough, introducing a music video with lyrics flashing so that audience or viewers could sing along with the music... but the only problem is, checking the list of their program, you will notice that some of their programs are being repeated twice a day... The only program that i could remember that are being repeated thrice a week is MYX Live... In short, anybody could easily get bored in watching this Channel... good thing that they only air MYX via Studio 23 every morning ranging from 8 am-12 nn because it creates MYX fans who are non-cable subscribers a little excitement plus they only air MYX HIT CHART, OPM Countdown, MYX DAILY TOP TEN as well as MYX Live and... and... and nothing more...

This what's make MTV Pilipinas much more fun to watch... it is true that most of their shows came from MTV in the US but still, the shows that are originally made in the Philippines are much better than of MYX... Shows like MTV Diyes as compared to MYX HIT CHART... And other shows that are not purely related to music like MTV Lokal, MTV Loveline, MTV MicMoTo, MTV Fashionista, Be Seen on MTV, part of MTV Most Wanted, MTV Bolahan, MTV Get Spotted, MTV Supahstar and the annual MTV Pilipinas Music Awards...

But this are only some of the shows why MTV Pilipinas is much more fun than MYX... probably you're wondering why i'm just comparing MTV and MYX... simply because they are the only channels that are pretty much competitive... In fact, the only channel that i know who airs music video besides this two is Channel 5 and i think Net 25 airs UN TV... i don't think that Channel V is still being aired here in the Philippines through local television.

The other shows that made MTV a real fun to watch are the shows coming from the US...
If you want to see stupid people doing stupid things... then i recommend watching this stupid shows... Number 1 on my list of recommend is the WILD BOYZ... hosted by former Jackasses Steve-O and Chris Pontious, this show is the best animal show i've ever seen... watch for their newest season... showing i think this week... 2nd show on my list of recommend is PUNK'D... hosted by Ashton Kutcher, this show was the one imitated by VICTIM... 3rd is MTV Pimp My Ride... hosted by US famous rap artist X-zibit... although it's not really a stupid show i still included this to my top list because of its unique concept, want to see cars turned from junk to a dream car? 4th is MTV's own reality based show THE ASSISTANT... hosted and produced by Hollywood actor Andy Dick... the most stupid reality show on the planet... imagine being fired right after you are introduced as an aplicant... and last on my list is One Bad Trip... a reality show wherein people are set-uped by MTV for their loved ones to see the truth behind this people... most of them are nasty stuff... check out also the other shows like MTV Cribs, Globally Dismissed, MTV Springbreak, Roomraiders and their newest Rouge...

And i think MTV was successful because they have much more resources compared to MYX... hehehe...

Some people might agree with me others might not... i just want to express my opinion... nothing more...
