Well, I'm super glad you reshared it, as I missed it the first time, and it is hi-larious. It's also sad, because it tells a really sensible account (somewhere under layers of bombastic sarcasm) of why music videos died, or rather, went elsewhere. And it also reminds me that since all tv invariably degrades its product to fill the demands of the loudest least common denominator, the best and only response is shutting it off, and moving on to better alternatives. There should be an update of that buggles tune, I'm thinking.
