Why the MTV bumpers so fucking scary, were they part of some MKUltra type of shit?https://youtube.com/watch?v=DdQdF0560Uc
>>215529955Stuff like that was considered edgy back then.
>>215529955>MKUltra100%
I was one of those kids with a queasy stomach. My cousin showed me the grossest of gross Garbage Pail Kids cards and turned me into an ultra-barfer. Recently I found out the entire series was Jewed from top to bottom. Imagine my surprise.
>>21552995590s was the gross out decade.
>>215530092>>215531628Yeah it was fucking everywhere for a while.
>>215530092>back then.I just watched a bit of OP's video and it still would be. What's edgy to you? Posting a big black johnson?
>>215529955youre a limpwristed faggot desu
>>215532475I remember the smell
>>215529955Probably to freak out the people who would watch the channel high
>>215532475I remember that ad. It was like three pages long and it came with a gross scratch and sniff panel.Good stuff.
>>215529955Zoomers and a lot of millennials don't understand that back in the day when you got high you watched mtv, like this anon >>215533371 said.Comedy central was in its infancy, there was no adult swim, hbo was only recently starting to get popular, there was literally nothing else on.So that's what you did, you smoked your shitty weed and watched mtv.And these bumps are explicitly designed for those people, because that's also the sort of people in the editor's booth.
>>215529955I always loved when creatives back then said fuck it and commissioned work to upstarting artists. Similar to liquid television.I am too casual to know the names but several art styles are familiar, some I recognize from [AS] bumpers later on.
>>215533619>And these bumps are explicitly designed for those people, because that's also the sort of people in the editor's booth.Well the image of the channel, much like fox at the time, is that they wanted to be totally different from what you could see on regular tv so all these new channels began to be edgier and capitalize on unexplored segments.Also that is the kind of shit you get when you let creatives do whatever they want, you end with weird stuff, I have made some myself when I am allowed to have some creative input. I have been accused of being weird because I was too inspired by bumpers and art like this which still exists in the back of my head.Even in my 30s I think this stuff is totally cool.Then I met MTV crews from the 2010s, complete fucking homos and tumblr tier retards and faggots with a stick up their holes 24/7. MTV died when SJWs were allowed on the crew and only seek to destroy the channel to have more of them on board. Total body snatchers type situation.And all of that was enabled when we stopped thinking about the people we wanted to cater to and started using social media as metrics.Bogus.
>>215533619Yeah, this is also why music videos were so fucking wild in the early 90s. It was basically THE programming, and bands like Primus got so big in part of that. There were others too that got a lot of replay but were basically one hit wonders like Green Jellyhttps://youtu.be/Gtffv9bpB-U?si=3ByU8Ob9ehHJ-z5v
>>215529955When did this board become a bunch of pussy ass faggots?
