Total Request Live (1998–2019)
OK, but the music isn't really my type
24 August 2000
On this show people vote on MTV.com for their favorite songs, and they're all put on a countdown. My synopsis on this show is that it's not bad for what it is, and I do think that Carson Daly is a pretty good host, he seems like a really nice guy and I like how he interacts with his audience. It does pander to the teeny bopper crowd as acts like N'Sync, and 68 degrees pretty much dominate the countdown. Actually I think that if they concentrated solely on the teeny bopper stuff it would be an improvement. What totally kills this show is dirtbag bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit, Blink 182, Papa Roach and Green Day. The pop music is fine, but the rock music completely sucks. I guess that's because I'm an old-school 80's heavy metal fan. I'd like to see some videos from Judas Priest, White Lion, Queensryche, Stryper, and Def Leppard. Here are some of my picks for the TRL countdown that you probably wont ever see on there

White Lion: Tell Me

Judas Priest: Hot Rockin

Queensryche: Jet City Woman

Dokken: In My Dreams

Stryper: Free

Kix: Don't Close Your Eyes

I could probably think of some more, but I'll stop here. In closing, this show would be good it only concentrated on pop music and give the sucky alternative garbage the old heave ho
