This shouldn’t be surprising - they cut music years ago.

Maybe they should adopt M from the Finnish MTV, where it stands for "Mainos" that is add... Or at least did when it started.

This joke's getting tired. Jersey Shore did just fine, and that was a decade after The Real World showed MTV they should downplay the music. They just didn't have the next big thing, and now kids are into TikTok dances.

Next you're going to tell me "why's it called Coca Cola when there's no cocaine in it."

It still has extracts from the Coca plant though so there is no issue with the "coca" part.

Coca-Cola is still a cola drink, however.
