'Dirty Girls'
A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
And then there is the practically music video - less MTV and VH1
Grrrr....
Not that there are many videos I want to see these days as popular music and I parted company a long time ago. I'm sure the expensive cable package has channels that show the '80s videos, but I only pay 23 bucks a month for cable and I'm keeping it that way.

VH-1 Classic. ijs. All kinds of cool videos, neatly lumped by your preferred era and/or genre from Metal to Alternative.
When I was at the theatre at the Grove, I think last weekend?, there was a costume in the lobby from some movie where Alan Cumming plays Loki. It was pretty cool.
VH-1 Classic.
Which does not appear as one of my cable choices. Grr ....
I have the expensive cable, and as far as I can tell VH1 Classic, MTV en Espanol, and MTV Hits are the only channnels that actually play videos most of the time. Even MTV2, which was supposed to be cool when it launched, is all reruns of MTV programming from the '90's now.
It's sad. Do Real World reruns really get great ratings? And whose genius idea was it to cut the few videos they DO show into 90-second clips and have people talking over them, more often than not? Argh.

To be fair, there's a goodly amount of music on those I Love the __'s shows that VH1 currently airs on continuous loop.

But just teaser length.
Of a morning, I'll leave TiVo on VH1 or MTV, and then rewind through the saved thirty minutes to see the highlights reel. During prime time I usually want to watch actual narrative TV, so their morning music schedule works perfectly for me. 3am to 10:30 am, if I read the MTV schedule right.
Are you guys, particularly the L.A.istas, familiar with FIDM?
Heh. Reequeen (my Lovely Wife™) went there.
Gandalfe, how is your lovely wife? I've wondered, but I rarely cross paths with either of you.
Ooh! Amazing -- they'll also have Lemony Snicket costumes!
If any of you go, please oh please take photos. Lots and lots and lots of photos.
