'90s Kids Deserve A Fuller Version Of MTV Classic

In the first week of MTV Classic, the network rebrand of VH1 Classic, the channel has gotten off to a bit of a rocky start. Sure, MTV’s unscripted musically-detached forebearers like Punk’d, The Real World, Pimp My Ride, and (the very dated) Cribs are represented, as are cartoon classics like Daria, Beavis And Butthead, and Aeon Flux. There are even a healthy amount music videos, though they’re mostly pushed to the margins of the schedule, filling the screen in genre-specific and free-for-all blocks late at night and in the morning/early afternoon — not unlike VH1 Classic before it.
