Reply to comment by LiveFromNewYork95 in Is Ridiculousness the ONLY thing on MTV now? by emusabe

I was just legitimately curious, really only got the tv part of the package cause it was only like $10 more for like 550 channels or something. The only ones I really even cared about were the sports stuff (finally big ten network!) but I just was confused as hell that mtv literally has one show in its lineup. I read some more about it and it seems like this horse has been beaten to death and back a bajillion times so sorry for posting yeeshhh

I do remember a handful of tv shows from Mtv when I was like middle school to hs age (looking at you, Jackass and whatever the spin off was called about bam and the cky guys) but I do remember really enjoying Daria* later as an adult

Sports is why I kept cable for so long, and I still think streaming isn't prepared to fully take over the task of broadcasting the full slate of major professional and NCAA sports. But honestly I just like the format of cable better than streaming so I'm gonna stick with it until it goes down.

The interesting thing to me is when they aren't showing Ridiculousness, like on Saturday afternoons they have a pretty good mix of movies, especially early and mid-2000's comedies.
