[...] enough not to tolerate any slick bullshit in the name of appealing to a broader demographic (couFiveDollarCovergh). For the first time in their career, Lucero will have more than just raving critics and word of [...]

Its a kind of bug.

Memphis-ites have six legs. Memphians have two.

I’m offended, I’m a Memphian and not a Memphis-ite. What ever the fuck that is!

Although I haven’t seen any of the episodes, judging by the number of “I JUST SAW YOU ON MTV!” texts I got after the Lucero episode began airing it seems be be drawing a decent number of normally non-Mtv viewers. Standing around waiting during the filming I got the feeling it was going to be a little too drama-rama for my tastes but it was fun anyway. Who’d turn down a free Lucero show at the Deli?!

you’re a better man than me.
I prefer my “reality” television to be of the VH1 ilk.

First off, let me say that I agree with you 100%, AIV.

However, I will continue to watch the show for one simple reason – MTV at least TRIED to do something with music that is off the beaten path, so I will try to support it.

I can’t imagine the same guy who created Hustle and Flow is the one who decided to do it this way – but maybe what he had to give up to actually get the show on the air is the same thing that makes it hard to watch.

I honestly couldn’t tell you the last time I watched MTV before $5 Cover, but it has been a while…a long while…and after this series, I doubt that I will watch it again anytime soon.
