Can you actually find Music Videos on TV anymore?

I don't know about you guys, but it seems to me like it's impossible to actually find a music video on MTV or VH1 anymore. Especially VH1. That station seems to be all 'behind the music' type shows anymore. But even MTV has too much other junk on; even TRL the videos are talked over or have running bars on the bottom.

When are there ACTUAL music videos on?

Well, some of us like the videos more than the babbling of VJs or stories about the lives of rich singers. Doesn't it bother anyone else? Seems to me like these stations have gone far far away from what they were originally made for.

According to my gf, MTV2 isn't even safe. They're playing other crap on there now too.

Fuse plays plenty of videos from what I've seen. I usually stick to TLC, Discovery Channel, or one of the ESPN channels.

what he meant is that people complain about exactly the same thing all the time, and they've been doing it for a long time. we're all perfectly aware that MTV doesn't play videos anymore, and most of us don't like it either.

True. They do have vids there, but they like to play their lifestyle entertainment for corrupting the 15 year olds.

IIRC, Fuse is formerly the MUCH Music channel. MUCH Music was awesome...they blew MTV out of the water. I was watching it when i was in chicago.
