Does anyone remember when MTV used to stand for Music Television? This channel would actually play music videos. I am sure I am dating myself in saying that I do.
I was up last night because I could not sleep, I turned on MTV to see if maybe by some slim chance there was going to be music videos on, of course not, how silly of me to think that…but what I did see was a commercial for some show called “Bromance” I was thinking great this is a show on gay men and their romances. I was wrong. It simply is a term for guys who are “Best Friends”
Does this “Bromance” creep anyone else out, I don’t know maybe I am wrong but when I think of “Romance” and then “Bro” I don’t get images of best buds just hanging out at the bar or tattoo joint tossing back a beer. It brings images to mind of guys who are maybe in a romantic relationship sitting in front of the fire place with bottles of wine...(omg get out of my head) who am I to judge…to each their own but I don’t want visuals.
So anyway I don’t know what this show “Bromance” is about other than it is some spin off from The Hills and some guys are competing to be some other guy’s best friend. All I want to know is where is the damn music videos?

wtf is right. I don't really want to think about bromantical evenings.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I remember a time when VH1 wasn't the flavor flav channel...
Bromance is gay... Not that there is anything WRONG with that.
ReplyDeleteLiz - omg Liz, i totally forgot about that. Flavvvvvooor Flavvvvvvv...that dude is so ugly, and i watched those girls all over him in one episode... i guess some girls will do ANYTHING for $$$$
ReplyDeleteCandice - I agree, no that there is anything wrong with that. Well MAYBE you are onto something here...MAYBE that is what the show is about, I mean the guy is good looking so he must be married or gay...so he is looking for a bff on the show and then the last episode he turns out being gay. who knows!!!
MTV blows. I haven't watched it since undergrad (>10 years ago).
ReplyDelete120 Minutes, Headbangers' Ball, all the great ones are gone. It's sad now that it's become reality TV. Shouldn't it just be RTV or RATV and I don't mean "Residential Assistant TV" either, although sometimes it is that too.
ReplyDeleteI hate all the stupid reality shows on tv today. MTV is completely ruined. It hasn't been good in at least a decade, maybe almost two. The only show worth watching that has been on there in years is Beavis and Butthead!
ReplyDeleteI don't think I've watched MTV in ten years. I gave up on them for the same reason you did - when crappy, non-music-related reality shows took over the music videos.
ReplyDeleteGuys competing with other guys for another man's friendship?
ReplyDeleteWhen does one of them pull out the "I can't quit you" line to save their ass from being eliminated?
No pun intended.
You know I thought I was the only 1 that was thinking the title didn't sound right. EWWWWWW! Me no like. I mean i'm all for the whole "like who you like" but...... this is a bit much.
