120 Minutes Returns to MTV!

I don't know about you, but I was a HUGE fan of 120 minutes in the 1990s.  Every Sunday at midnight, I could look forward to watching the best in alternative videos.  120 Minutes aired videos no one else was showing.  If you wanted to see a band before anyone else even knew about them, you watched 120 Minutes.  In high school, I was the first person to know about Nirvana.  Life was good.

For many years, there has been an empty space in my life.  My once "cool" existence ended around the same time the show ended.  It has been outright difficult to listen to good music and know who is the next up-and-coming artist without 120 Minutes. 

Now for the good news - 120 Minutes is coming back!  If you have MTV2 (and most of you now do because of the digital cable upgrade) you can watch 120 Minutes again.  And yes, Matt Pinfield is hosting it again.  I know, I know, I feel like I am going back in time.  The show will start airing new episodes again on this weekend.  If you are on the east coast, it is on at 1 am (Saturday night into Sunday morning) on July 31, 2011.  Oh, happy days!

Even if you can't stay up for it, be like me and tape it.  Honestly, I am not as young and spunky as I once was when it originally aired.  If you have a DVR or you are still kicking it 90's style with your VCR, make sure to tape it.  Thank you, MTV, for finally giving your fans what they want!

Get Off the Couch and Celebrate the '90s!

I believe the time has come.  The 1980s parties have come and gone.  It is time to bring the '90s back.  Let's start having some 1990s parties.  We can break out the hypercolor t-shirts, flatten our bangs like Brenda and Kelly on 90210, and dance to Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer!  What could be more fun than that?

Even if you are into something a little less "pop" - why not break out the flannel shirts and let's listen to Nirvana and Pearl Jam?  Even better, we do not even have to get off the couch to watch Beavis & Butt-head reruns.  So what are you waiting for?  Check out some more ideas: It's Time for a 1990s Comeback!
