@@m1zxry_tt832 no the writers and journalists are scared because an AI chatbot can gauge what the fans *actually* want and copy paste with far more accuracy than they can. Hence why they're pushing the "they're coming for our jobs" fearongering they're pushing. Maybe they should learn to code?
Depressing fun fact! A lot of these shows came out during a big surge of reality tv, the reason being is because around that time was the last writers strike. So this was networks way of having shows airing with minimal writing because the craziness of the people hired was enough to fill the air time. Thats why they also tend to be...uh...not great
Don't we have a writer's strike happening now as well? Something tells me that we're most certainly seeing it happen again and I'm terrified by that prospect.
Pimp My Ride was my favorite from 2000's MTV. I used to think having TV screens in your car doors was cool. Then I grew up and realized that it was the mid-2000's and that the resolution would be dogshit.
I remember one episode of „next“ where a girl was saying in the first second next to the first 4 guys and gone on a multi hour date with the last person. At the end the guy took the money, because she was so mean to the others guys, ditching them only based on the first look.
As someone who was a teen in the late-90s/early-00s, I wholly agree with the title of this video. While television hasn't gotten any better, this really paved the way for the nonsense we see today.
I would pay serious money to go back in time and be at the writer’s meetings for these ideas. I really would. Because this is so interesting in the worst way possible.
I unironically LOVED Next and Exposed because of how hilarious it was. I totally forgot about Parental Control though. That show was some kind of fever dream type shit 😂
The "chicken cutlets" isn't just for making your boobs look bigger. We also have them in swimwear or sports bras so people won't see our nips poke out through the clothing.
Same. Fucking same. I thought we were going to go through Jackass or Jersey Shore or the Jersey Shore spin-off about Snooki (really hate that she has that name) or Wipe Out but nope, we got...whatever that fucking trash was. Apparently, none of the reality shows I watched were on MTV which is just as well because whenever I would watch MTV, I'd get a set of however many music videos, a commercial break and another set of however many music videos because that was what I thought that channel was for because the full name of the channel is basically: Music TV. But I live in Canada so I guess the USA's MTV is different from Canada's MTV.
3:00 That's genius! They could double as a defense mechanism. The girl could take them out and throw them at an oncoming predator, giving her time for a swift escape.
I'm so envious of the chicken cutlet in the fridge... Girls can put on a spaghetti dress and go to the opera (if the dress is nice enough ofc) and still have this option?! Us, the PP ppl, get frown upon if we don't wear a fckin west under the jacket in 40 °C during stupid pointless business meetings. Thats 104 °F for you my dear world overlords, about 20 °F more than the warmest super bowl recorded (given google told me that those great bowls are served in Feburary, a warm bowl seems pretty nice tho).
my god i was there, mtv was trying not to fade off since all the music swiched to the internet and they saw the writing on the wall they wanted to keep being the young people channel and huge as they where but instead they scared people away whit this cringe trash... we couldnt belive it at the time.
“We’re gunna take you to the dentist” Id haven’t been to the dentist in 15 years. I brush twice a day, but i have 42 teeth, and I keep growing more… if Im going to die like a rat, teeth growing in my brain, Id rather not know about it. Just let it happen, out of sight out of mind.
0:50 attention and validation 4:45 🤣 6:30 yes he did and I had the exact same reaction 8:46 🤣 that was cringe but the good kind of cringe 11:37 well do be fair usually bullies pick fights based on people who know (or more like believe) they can take on so I think it's not cringe, it's justice, they are on the receiving end on what they themselves are doing. but personally I would like to have the satisfaction of mauling them without worry about them playing the victims afterwards (cause seriously, most of them when shit hits the fan they play the victims) of course it would be a scam
ill take Punk'd and Jackass over the cringey fake pranks, or "pranks/crimes" by creators like Mizzy, and dangerous "challenge" videos we have nowadays. stupid "stunts" with shopping carts > stealing cars and crashing them for the Hyundai/ Kia USB hack/prank.
Mouse out here turning everyone into vtubers. She'll never get me! "Did she survive?" No she died. The vtuber called Ironmouse has been a robot replica all along.
Tbh, the chicken cutlet fridge idea...kinda based. Like, imagine having your bra be a little chilled when you're about to go out on a really hot day....but having underwear in the fridge with your _food_ is still way too weird. And oh my god, imagine someone keeping underwear in like, plastic bags in the fridge or freezer??? That feels like something straight out of a super weird comedy movie.
God, I remember a majority of these shows. Same with the "love" shows as well. Looking back, yeah they're pretty cringey but also funny as fuck at the same time. I think Jackass and Scarred were the best ones out of that list. I don't have an opinion on Punk'd because I didn't watch it as much, but I definitely remember Zach Braff's freakout.

They made interesting and compelling TV unlike today. There's a reason Hollywood writers are being replaced by chatgpt xD
@@CavemanCrafts86 interesting and compelling storylines aren't why people are concerned about chatgpt taking jobs

Some of these shows were made during a prominent writers' strike. So, really, there WAS no writers' room.

Your editor is TOP NOTCH.
I feel like people dont compliment the editors enough, so lets give love to the editor.
Trust me, lots of viewers from Ironmouse give editors compliments
notch minecraft
Fr the meme drops are top tier
If I scroll down far enough there's five other comments saying the same thing as you
Pimp My Ride was my favorite from 2000's MTV. I used to think having TV screens in your car doors was cool. Then I grew up and realized that it was the mid-2000's and that the resolution would be dogshit.
plus you would have to give back those tv screens...
A lot of people's cars got literally destroyed by the "improvements"
Holy hell I forgot how bad reality television was... I can only expose myself to this through Mouse.
Peak joke at 8:35 by the way.
It's still, and always will be really bad lol. It's reality tv.
Mouse SHOULD host/have that "Do You Wanna Be A VTuber?" reality TV show.
Have Connor become the Simon Cowell of the show🤣🤣
ah, yes, Mousey dragging content creators into the Vtuber rabbit hole. ya love to see it.
I remember one episode of „next“ where a girl was saying in the first second next to the first 4 guys and gone on a multi hour date with the last person. At the end the guy took the money, because she was so mean to the others guys, ditching them only based on the first look.
Based and dodged a bullet.
10:39- No, she did not survive. Her brain was uploaded to the internet, and now she exists only as her VTuber form.
Turning youtubers into vtubers is the best idea ever. Bonus points if Jordna Fringe is the first guest.
Mousey just downright *snitching* on her refrigerated cutlet friend.
“As if you don’t lie to yourself every fuckin day!” Imma use this quote
how to feel old, step 1: remember when the M in mtv actually stood for music
1: OUCH!!!! WHY YOU CALL ME OUT?!?
2: TRUTH!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Bullies are only bad when they aren't me. Only a REAL loser gets bullied by an imposter.
2:39 I felt that on a spiritual level. My boy is even rocking those hobbit curls.
I remember my older sister watching some of these shows, I would catch them occasionally. There was some real weird s**t.
5:50
We need to revive this show for Conner
As someone who was a teen in the late-90s/early-00s, I wholly agree with the title of this video. While television hasn't gotten any better, this really paved the way for the nonsense we see today.
8:38 fucking dead 💀the editing on this is 1000 IQ
I would pay serious money to go back in time and be at the writer’s meetings for these ideas. I really would. Because this is so interesting in the worst way possible.
The writers were on strike, which is why reality tv even exists.
Punk'd and Jackass were top tier
Don't forget Pimp my Ride......well before the problems occurred.
@@MikeTheEnforcer that one too and Silent Library, what were the problems again?
The only thing wrong with Punk'd is that it's probably the reason why we had to deal with so many TH-cam "prank" channels
Hell yeah.
@@elrick44Punkd had specific targets, those awful prank channels are more like even older shows like Candid Camera that just messed with whoever.
Celebrity Deathmatch was incredible. God bless claymation.
With the amount of absolute dipshit celebrities and influencers today that show has never been needed more.
Oh my gosh you use the Matrix trailer music from my childhood for your intro. This is insane.
23 Years from now this will be considered peak cringe. I will be waiting.
90's MTV was the best era!
Connor would love to be on the show where u date the moms, he would be a returning competitor
Anyone remember when MTV actually had music videos on their channel?
I remember when MTV was just music videos.
I unironically LOVED Next and Exposed because of how hilarious it was. I totally forgot about Parental Control though. That show was some kind of fever dream type shit 😂
Mousey out here educating us about chicken cutlets.
8:12, the church of vtubers trying to convert a heathen
Fanteria deserves a raise for that editing
The "chicken cutlets" isn't just for making your boobs look bigger.
We also have them in swimwear or sports bras so people won't see our nips poke out through the clothing.
That intro sequence has got me feeling nostalgic
Thank you Ironmouse for cushioning the amount of cringe I just witnessed.
7:15 You just gave me the perfect lines to put on my gravestone
5:06 This is the dictionary definition of menace to society!
MTV was better in the 90s when their 80s shows were still going.
Ahhhh, the 2000s, I was born in it, molded by it
Insert “bro that’s cringe” here
Honestly I would love for Ironmouse to turn me into a VTuber SOMEONE GREEN LIGHT THIS SHOW!!!
Welcome to the early 00’s. Where any idea was a good idea 😂
"Oh god, too much cringe"
-Ironmouse, 59 seconds into the video.
This is going well.
Same. Fucking same. I thought we were going to go through Jackass or Jersey Shore or the Jersey Shore spin-off about Snooki (really hate that she has that name) or Wipe Out but nope, we got...whatever that fucking trash was.

@Dr.Kira6437 I loved watching Wipe Out back then, I used to wish that I could be on that show and go through the obstacle course
The "man i love milfs" show💀
My bully broke my shoulder once and my ankle twice so I'd be onboard with them getting beat by a professional fighter, tbh.
Now I want to watch Iron Mouse do a Caso Cerrado episode. LOL
3:00 That's genius! They could double as a defense mechanism. The girl could take them out and throw them at an oncoming predator, giving her time for a swift escape.
Like a lizard losing her tail.
Omg, I watched the Paris Hilton new BFF show live. It was fucking incredible. Just peak cringe.
I miss og Jackass, that was an era long lost and will never come back
Omg I haven't seen half of these in so long man I feel old now
2:03 do comicbook characters count?
I'm so envious of the chicken cutlet in the fridge... Girls can put on a spaghetti dress and go to the opera (if the dress is nice enough ofc) and still have this option?!

There was Viva La Bam, Wildboys, Jackass, Nitro Circus, Fantasy Factory, and my all time favorite, Pimp My Ride.
would love to see/be a part of the vtuber reality show 👌 that stuff can set someone up
my god i was there, mtv was trying not to fade off since all the music swiched to the internet and they saw the writing on the wall they wanted to keep being the young people channel and huge as they where but instead they scared people away whit this cringe trash... we couldnt belive it at the time.
10:19 always nice to see Oompaville in someone else’s videos!
These MTV shows aren’t cringe…
They are the reason why therapists exist
For these competition shows I want that ONE person to get told to do something and they say "No."
Then just walk off the set and out of the building
“We’re gunna take you to the dentist”
Id haven’t been to the dentist in 15 years. I brush twice a day, but i have 42 teeth, and I keep growing more… if Im going to die like a rat, teeth growing in my brain, Id rather not know about it. Just let it happen, out of sight out of mind.
I believe this was the exact time period where MTV lost all significance and credibility
Miss the days of Liquid Television, MTV Oddities, Aeon Flux, The State, and when it was actually about music videos not crappy reality tv.
0:50 attention and validation
4:45 🤣
6:30 yes he did and I had the exact same reaction
8:46 🤣 that was cringe but the good kind of cringe
11:37 well do be fair usually bullies pick fights based on people who know (or more like believe) they can take on so I think it's not cringe, it's justice, they are on the receiving end on what they themselves are doing.
but personally I would like to have the satisfaction of mauling them without worry about them playing the victims afterwards (cause seriously, most of them when shit hits the fan they play the victims)

your dad being Calli :D Nice touch
8:46 Don’t forget the KY‼️👌🏼🙀😹
Love your editing style
3:57 If I wasn't the person paying they could totally take me to the dentist. Be prepared to pay a few grand lol
Reality TV basically started there, and killed it as well.
Hoisted by their own petard.
MTV to this day has nothing but cringe.
7:10 the way ironmouse screams in cringe
Mouse out here turning everyone into vtubers. She'll never get me!
"Did she survive?" No she died. The vtuber called Ironmouse has been a robot replica all along.

Yeah as cringy as this shows might be perceived today at least they were entertaining, something that can't be said for their current ones.
OMG THE INTRO VIDDDD. OMG I REMEMBER THAT. THAT'S HOW YOU KNOW 😂😂😂
Scar punk’d jackass were top tier
this is a reaction video and a test for your high-pitch hearing!
Oh my god this made me remember 1000 ways to die
“Harassment” would’ve been a much more appropriate title for Punk’d, especially considering the TH-cam genre it spawned.
8:10
i present you: the vtuber initiative
Aside from Punked and Jackass, I never heard of any of the shows and I watched the former but never the latter
Yoooo I love Jordan Fringe, it's so cool that Mouse watched one of his videos.
Bully Beatdown was fucking sick okay
No Music just Reality. BRING BACK THE GODDAMN MUSIC!!
You know what, I don't miss the 2000s anymore. I forgot about this cringe.
Fact. 2000's was the dark days but at the same time the best time of my life.
yes it was. i remember when it used to be a Music T.V. channel.
Does anyone remember that show "Fanatic" where people stalked their favorite celebrities? Definitely cringe
The only thing I would recommend is The Maxx animated series.
Mouse: why would you be on a show like this?
15 minutes of fame
1:53 Yo!
At some point I scrolled the screen down to only show Ironmouse because the cringe got so painful
Watching this reminded me of what Pimp my Ride became.
I feel like that thumb is supposed to be a pinky, but we're gonna act like we didnt see anything.
Viva la Bam was the best show, dont even @ me.
I had to be creative 🥲
@Ezzydesu cheers you did a magnificent job
I forgot how bad some of the ideas were.
She will not rest until the entire world is vtubers.
3:55 oh please tell me Mouse has seen the Hamster dance .
She's a millennial of course she has
People forget about the train wreck that was Wrestling Society X. Even hardcore wrestling fans.
@10:11 is that, young Johnny Knoxville? 😳
Hands down the worst was Chains of Love where 4 people were literally chained together throughout the whole thing
5:57
Thus everyone discovers a new fetish at the time it aired
First Ironmouse....exposure. Great video. I can see why CDawg enjoys her company.
Love of the person who created the original video was actually on the chat !
