How does anyone watch AMP?  I made the effort several times in the past 
for 2:00 am Sunday (right?) and instead got MTVs retarded Spring Break 
Mission or a Road Rules marathon or some crap like that.

When I have caught it, it's been decent, but there are only so many 
nights that I will go through the trouble only to have Carson Daley 
cracking jokes for 12 and 13 year olds.

MTV really sucks these days, maybe because I've grown up (I'm 23) but 
really, who wants to watch Karaoke?  What about "video cliche"?  What 
type of programming is that?

I guess their target market is early teenage (13 or so) though, so maybe 
I'm just an OG.  It's too bad MTV is watering down kids brains though...
