Comedy shows that poked fun at politics (Yes Minister) and highlighted the absurdities of government.<br /><br />Then there were the SF shows that asked questions about humanity such as Star Trek and Blakes 7. Even films such as ET and Star Wars can start discussions about good and evil and whether we all have courage when the need arises.<br /><br />The problem with literature doesn't lie in the books, or the plays, but the narrow way they are interpreted by academics. Instead of allowing people, mostly children, to discover meanings for themselves, they are told what they should mean. How many children,teenagers expecially want to be told?Martin Willoughbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05605554706836638988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196908370614674789.post-6247831051922637912011-07-27T06:44:18.538-04:002011-07-27T06:44:18.538-04:00MTV was something pretty cool for a while.
Althou...MTV was something pretty cool for a while.<br /><br />Although I am happy Beavis and Butthead are coming back.<br /><br />Nothing like two teenage cartoon guys rifting about the current pop culture state of America.......France Rantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16123046765053719069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196908370614674789.post-41746575556041405382011-07-27T00:48:50.618-04:002011-07-27T00:48:50.618-04:00First MTV started playing all rap, and shoved all ...First MTV started playing all rap, and shoved all the white bands to VH1. Then they quit playing music at all. MTV hasn't been relevant since the turn of the century. <br /><br />When you mention these songs and you talk about them being meaningful, it makes me laugh. But that's just because they don't mean anything to me. Except Billy Joel, and that's only because his lyrics are more of a history lesson than most kids get in school these days. I think they skip Korea and Vietnam entirely these days, don't they?Marvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651926840296438477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3196908370614674789.post-3914531914814050282011-07-26T23:38:27.446-04:002011-07-26T23:38:27.446-04:00Made me think about Def Leppard's "Animal...Made me think about Def Leppard's "Animal" video which was shot mostly at an old European circus. The series of Poison videos which were shot in and around the same LA cafe, telling the story of the songs in caricature. The video for Metallica's "One," which haunts me as much as the song itself does. And so many more... MTV, 1986 - 1992, RIPC. N.
