yeah, I watch it. I'm not calling it the greatest art humanity has ever created, but sometimes you gotta watch the bad stuff so you can vent.
I'm actually taking a class on this. the first day of class, we watched Jackass and we regularly watch episodes of the Simposons, South Park, and other "low culture" shows.
I don't have a detonator; its on a timer.
A countdown timer?
No, a count-up timer. It goes from one to explode.
Viva la bam is staged...and very fake. Show has some funny parts but mostly it's pretty stupid. It's just a lame spin off of Jackass.
Also I hardly believe all the good skateboarders watch the show. The posers however probably do, and since skating is the fad right now there are alot of posers out there now.
I skateboard, and the whole fact that Bam is praised as the "Best Skater" ticks me off. The Am's over at Krush are better than him. Otherwise, you can tell the whole show is staged, it's funny at the fact that you cant understand Vito, but I show no liking to Bam.

Damn! I agree. Bam is not all that great at skating. I think people like Geoff Rowley and Jamie Thomas need more credit. Or even Diego Bucchieri. Have you seen his part on Good&Evil!
I don't skateboard but I do play T.H.U.G 2 alot and I know most about skaters. Bam is such a stupid person, most of that is a fake show anywaw.
Aero, you're right, if I ever saw him I too would punch him in his face for stupidity.
I used to rollerblade and Skateboarders that I talked to all hate him. There was a little kid once that had a BAM skateboard and they all started telling him how BAM sucked. So I agree with the people that say that only "posers" like him as a skateboarder. But the show is a completely different thing. I watch it once in awhile if it's on. Even that I think alot of it is fake and that the parents only put up with their crap because they want to get paid, it still is funny.

i happen to like mtv. do you want to know y!!!??!! well, i going to TELL YOU!!! first off, mtv is REAL. not like all those other stupid shows that have mickey mouse running around!! i mean real, doin stuff no one else would do. you got to have some guts to do what they do. All they want is to make people laugh! what the hell is wrong wit that!! I also happen to like Mtv because its cool! not boring like "surviver." and when you say, "Extreme sports idiots" i hope you don't mean me, cause i am one of those people, and damn proud of it!! at least we don't sit on our ass all day like you and do nothing!!! that is all i have to say.

Well excuse me all to hell. I guess I was wrong about MTV; this person makes a good point: MTV truly is real. Where else could I gain as much valuable insight about the real world than from a show titled "The Real World"? Dumbass.
I have a better idea: instead of watching the "real world" on TV, why not live in it? It's easy, all you have to do is turn off the TV and go do something. All sorts of "real" stuff happens in the "real world." You can ride a bike, eat a sandwich and you can even prove to the world that you're a dolt by sending me poorly written hate mail.
I'd have never guessed you watch MTV from the refined writing in your email. You ask what's wrong with MTV? They're the good guys after all, they only want to make people laugh, right? The producers, writers, celebrities, record labels, soda companies, clothing companies, agents, directors and a slew of corporate executives, managers, supervisors and accountants laugh all the way to the bank with the money of all the dumbasses who watch MTV and endorse the products of their juggernaut marketing campaign. Go on, watch their shows, laugh it up... they're doing things nobody else would do. Look everybody! A guy sitting in pig ****! That's good TV, call the kids.
MTV blows. The network claims to be so cutting-edge and anti-censorship, yet they're one of the most heavily censored networks out there. Thumbs down to its parent company Viacom. The people who make the decisions at MTV are cowards with no conviction. Sure, they'll act like they're mean **** when they show a breast or let a cuss word fly here and there, but when it comes to showing something completely uncensored, those pussies back down... why? Heaven forbid advertisers object to their content. Then how will the producers make their Lexus payments? Wake up. MTV is mind-rot bull****, turn it off.
okay, seriously, the end of that post your quoted applies to every TV station and film studio. nobody takes risks out of fear of advertisers. as for the rest of the post, you can get a lot of bad shows anywhere. if a adult chooses to watch a show such as Viva la Bam, what's the harm?
