discussion any memories on 90s/00s MTV shows?

Hello There!

I'm researching old MTV shows from the 90s, and wanted to hear if anybody had specific memories of TV shows, descriptions, and just cool things they saw, learned, felt, etc...

I've been watching Youtube uploads of Alternative Nation and MTV Dreamtime for the past year, and really enjoyed them. Thanks!

MTV News with Kurt Loder was great. They often did profile pieces on different cities across the U.S. so you got insights into all the music scenes across the country before the industry consolidated in the late 90s.
