For some reason, I was watching "Made" today on TV. It was the episode where the late-teenager wanted to learn to ball-room dance. He had shoulderblade length hair, which looked great may I add.
His trainer tried to get him to cut it, and the woman he was dancing with got really bitchy saying "Cut it, I am not going to lose this because of your hair, I am not dancing with a man who has longer hair than me."
The good thing is that the man stood his ground and didn't let them cut it short like they wanted, but he got about 5 inches chopped off, but his hair was still shoulderlength at least after.
I felt really annoyed about the comments they made to him, stupid prats.

I never took anything seriously on MTV. Most if not all of the programming on that channel is crap in my opinion.
My 2 Cents. :-)
I remember when MTV RULED in the 80's. "Headbangers Ball" with Adam Curry (before Riki) was the highlight for me. 1987-1988 was an EXCELLENT time to be a rocker and I was absolutely steeped in metal at that time. But, I haven't watched TV on a regular basis in over 7 years but I'm told by some friends that MTV has hit an all-time low....the decline of the Roman Empire, it appears.
well it appears they took the M(music) outta Mtv now its just tv,filled with scripted reality shows, i miss headbangers ball too \m/ (i liked riki better though)
Definitely. It's now eMpTyV. I remember the original HB, too, and I agree that was a great, great time in both music and MTV. I only have basic cable so I don't get the other MTV or VH1 channels that supposedly play a lot more h/r or metal, but that's ok. I can't get into a lot of the nu metal these days, especially the grindcore stuff. There's no melody to me there. Classic or traditional-based metal is my cup of beer. :-)

"Viva La Bam" is the funniest show ever!
LOL I've still never seen that show. Bam Magera looks almost exactly like my brother so I find it creepy to see him on TV for some reason. Probably since I don't like my brother very much.
Yeah, Viva La Bam is a great show.

Bragi was being sarcastic!
MTV is pure garbage. Trendy Cookie cutter crap 24/7. Beh!
I didnt watch MTV anymore because they started playing whatever BET played... and I am sick of hip pop or R and B...
M-TV hasn't been worth a damn since they got rid of the VJ's and stopped playing videos! It was one of the most awesome things around when it first started, but went down the toilet when they started their own "programming".
Hello there!
about that in mtv, Im so sick of seeing stuff like that in tv! All programas like made or the ones that change people styles always cut man's hair! God why do people only like what the society says its right?
I remember there being another episode of Made where a guy with shoulder length hair wanted to be prom king'
when it came to giving him a new look he refused to cut his hair short
he ended up getting it cut to like chin length but when they showed an update of how he is doing now his hair was back to his shoulders. So at least he grew it back
It's MTV. Also known as "la crap de la crap". So why are you so surprised? It's a channel made by chavs for chavs, so don't watch it. Ignorance is addictive. A lot of people in my school are getting dumber over the years :(
Once upon a time I used to watch Beavis and Butthead on MTV. That was alright. But then they started to play more videos for music I didn't like, and sometimes it seemed like there were more commercials than programming. About the only thing I've watched on MTV over the past year or so has been "Pimp My Ride." I can't stand any of the other programs they have on.

Much as the comments from others MTV was great in the beginning (early to late 80's) then went to hell as evidenced by what you saw. At least he didn't cut it all off.
