re: I’m this old (M/TV related)

This will blow you mind. Kurt Loder is 80 years old.

I remember when they first launched. Like, most of my childhood was spent in a world where MTV did not yet exist.

Exactly. I graduated HS in 1979. Right as MTV and ESPN were being born.

Carmen Electra on MTV Spring Break is GOAT.

At the time MTV launched, I remember hearing about it on the news and at school. But we lived out in the country and didn’t have cable yet. We had the old-school antenna on a pole outside. Turn it one way and you pick up ABC and NBC, turn it another and you pick up CBS and Public TV, though CBS was never all that clear.

I remember it being the late 70s going to my cousin’s house in Huntsville and they had cable. HBO blew my mind. Totally uncensored and no commercial breaks. I remember we watched Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park…



If you’ve never seen it, be thankful.

I’m way older. Haven’t watched MTV in 15 years.

I watched MTV when they had actual videos, Carson Daly, beavis and butthead, MTV spring break, etc…..


Way before road rules, jersey shore, etc…

Real World and Road Rules was before Carson Daly on MTV. Road rules started in 1995. Jersey Shore 2009 little different

You are old and so am I, but it was cool back in the 80's.
