This was the thing that got me interested in music. If I never was such a fan I can guarantee you I wouldn't be posting on this board right now. www.youtube.com/watch?v=fEs8LanCuKwI think I've found every single video related to this network on the internet. I haven't found any playlists or tapes or anything though, unless you count the stuff on Google Books. Share your memories here! |

I first remember watching it in early 2000 and laughing at how terrible the quality of the channel was. I think it was on Channel 65 on Time Warner Cable.  Although their top 10 was definitely interesting to watch, it was always a channel more saturated with hip hop more than anything else. |

Weird thing, it seems like the version in my area was the only one to devote about 30% of the playlist to country music.
I especially liked how every weekend they would add a bunch of themed videos to the playlist (but I don't know what RATM's People of the Sun and Green Jelly's Three Little Pigs have to do with Halloween).

lmfao I remember that channel, it was sorta.. ghetto/bootleg? Most of the vids were def. r&b and hip hop but at a certain stage they had all the boy bands on full rotation <3 I couldn't really hang with watching the channel for more like 30 mins a time lol.

There were two of them here. One was on Channel 25 and it was more urban based. I had it in 1999 & 2000. I stopped watching it when every other video played was Country Grammar.
The other was on the basic cable on channel 69. That one was all genres, but I could only watch it when I was at my grandparents cause I didn't have cable at the time.

Yes, they played Toy-Box "Best Friend" over and over and over again. I bought the album because I felt like they had me at gunpoint. (love the album btw)
