The first signs of the new look MTV today - they played out some of the new breakbumpers (by mistake I think because they played the old one again afterwards). They were basically the same as the Christmas ones, but, umm, not Christmassy. You guessed it - they've gone for crappy people idents. People doing stuff before an MTV logo appears on top. Dreadful.

Anyway, they still look set to relaunch on the 20th January. Well, saying that, I wouldn't be surprised if they put it back again, it *was* due at the end of October after all.

You know, one of these days, a channel might have a decent relaunch with a good, well thought out image. Or would that be unfashionable?!?!

MTV UK is probably the only channel that has kept basically the same presentation since about 1998. Everybody else alters their almost every 2 years or less on average. It would'nt bother me if MTV kept the same presentation but had a go at making more of it's own programs instead of showing some many programs from the US. Also VH-1 has become a bit tacky lately, it shows the same stuff quite a lot, I've lost count of how many times they've shown 100 Greatest Videos or Number 1's.

The only decent people idents I have seen are those on MTV2 -- and in particular those ones where they've ripped off interviews with twunts like Justin Timberlake and edited the whole thing so he looks like an ass. Splendid. More please!
