Thanks so much for watching! What other MTV shows or other channels should we look back at next?

i kind of miss how tv was so completely all over the place in the 2000s though. they would make a show about anything for like 5 seasons

This was such an era for MTV. It was great because as soon as you outgrew kid channels like Disney, Nickelodeon, and Cartoon Network, MTV was there to fill the teen tv watching void. There were music videos to watch every morning and a variety of shows to watch throughout the day. Too bad they don't have much content nowadays.

My sister and I used to get baked af and watched Andy Milonakis show all the time. It hit different. 2000’s era of MTV is one of those “you just had to be there” kind of things, y’know

Celebrity Deathmatch definitely deserves a shoutout as it was such a great lead up to all of this insanity

I actually met one of the bullies from bully beat down at a gamestop in Hollywood one time. Went up to him and asked if he was on the show. He said yeah and that he really wasn't a bully at all he was a pretty chill dude, and the so-called victims were actually really good friends. Also, he said they were all actors, but the fight itself was real.

The fact that Xhibit was a nice guy in real life, genuinely does make up the fact that a 12ft Fish Tank in the Trunk is impractical.

I just reorganized my entire closet while watching this video. I’m not even joking I’m just kinda proud of myself.

MTV filmed an episode of MADE at my high school between prom of my junior and homecoming of my senior year. My friend was the contestant and it couldn’t have been more wild. The producer recorded hours of our conversations in class, and used me as one of the “Posse” they wanted to follow. They wanted me to identify every student in every frame of footage so they could get release forms signed and not have to blur people out. I didn’t know all 2500 people at school but was treated like an idiot for not knowing everyone or for not wanting to spend hours going through every still they sent. Not to mention how my friend was treated for “weight loss” even though she wanted to be on the dance team. It was a classic Tracy Turnblad situation where a big girl wanted to dance. Imagine being cast on MADE to become a dancer and your producer shows up and throws you in boot camp to lose weight. She may have mentioned wanting to slim down in her interview but she very much wanted to be a dancer, and wanted to sing the anthem at the homecoming game. The episode is absolutely terrible because my friend didn’t take to the cookie cutter boot camp stuff they did with her. Also, the only clip I’m in after hours of being the producer’s unofficial assistant was one fake-ass take they made me do where they wanted me to “pretend like it’s the first day of school and she’s lost a lot of weight and you’re excited to see her”. They filmed “back to school reveal” moments months later because she didn’t lose the weight they tried to force her to over the summer. I was then in another MADE episode filmed at my college a few years later. I was one of hundreds of students in a flash mob. Don’t know who the MADE person was and never saw the episode.

Wild Boyz, Viva La Bam, and Silent Library were my favorites. Me and my brother would always watch MTV and VH1 together in the 2000’s. Miss those times :)

Kelly Osbourne dating Bert McCracken of the Used was always one of my favorite things to see on TV at that time. Bert was such an insane individual at that time, and I imagine Ozzy was actually similar to him at the time when Sharon met him. So to see her shit talking Bert was just so damn funny to me.

I loved MTV Made so much as a teen. It was so inspiring and raw. I also liked that you could see the US culture and schools as a european.

Jordan, you're making me feel so nostalgic with these latest MTV vids. Great work

A girl in my high school auditioned for, and was chosen for, Made! She never made it on TV though, as she did end up giving up. Her gimmick was that she was a cheerleader who wanted to be a competitive boxer… lol she knew it would get people’s attention, but wasn’t actually up for competitive boxing. I remember they were allowed to come to our school and film for one week, but after one day they were so disruptive they said they couldn’t come back again.

This just proves that the 2000s was the best decade. just look how diverse the lineup was and how much media was experimenting with crazy stuff even if it might fail. media companies today was too safe and just reboot reboot reboot instead of trying anything new.

Beavis and Butt-Head, Celebrity Deathmatch, Jackass, Andy Milonakis, and Viva La Bam were some of the highlights of my teen years 😀

Man the Andy Milonakis show was a defining part of my childhood. My older sisters would watch stuff like Room Raiders and Date My Mom so I would just happen to watch along but Andy Milonakis was a show I would actually tune in to watch because I loved it so much. I really need to find the full series somewhere to revisit it. I feel so nostalgic watching the random clips that have been uploaded to KZfaq but there's so much gold not readily available online. Also crazy that he's a content creator now lol I don't like his new stuff but I'll always love the original show I don't think Wondershozen was ever on regular MTV (just MTV2) but that's another show I loved watching as a kid that made me feel like I was watching something I wasn't supposed to. They really set me up to love internet comedy years down the line

these videos bring me such comfort, i remember watching all these shows after coming home from school. Especially MADE and True Life!

You should cover The Girls Next Door! I was shook when I looked it up and found out it originally aired on E!, I could have sworn it was an MTV show. I remember it in the same arena as Viva La Bam, Pimp My Ride, and Cribs

Forgot how Rev Run would type something inspirational into his blackberry while taking a bubble bath 😭 this video has unlocked many key memories

TV back then was just amazing! I miss those simpler times when people would just watch tv and not think much about what they were watching.

Jordan, awesome video man! Thanks for all the time and energy you put into making these! Would love a "90s MTV" version of this since that was the period of time I grew up with MTV. Really crazy / weird shows I can remember: -MTV Oddities - The Head. -Sifl and Olly (still hilarious!). -Usual suspects (Daria, Beavis and Butthead, etc.). -Clone High. And that's just the semi-animated stuff, I'm sure there was a lot of other random / crazy shows out there. Keep up the awesome job!

MADE is one of those shows that was actually pretty positive and doesn’t get the mainstream love it deserved or currently deserves.

Just want to say thank you for making these kinds of videos! As a media fiend, I love seeing how TV has evolved over the years and how much creativity + variety there was to be found on TV before social media and netflix became a major thing

MTV in the early 2000’s was awesome. Enough said.

Wonder Showzen and Andy Milonakis is definitely part of my favorite shows

Thank you Jordan for another great video, really looking forward to the Nick GaS video. I loved Legends of The Hidden Temple, Double Dare, and especially GUTS. Keep up the amazing work, still finishing up Pt 2 of Ash’s Journey. I know I say it every time but you have been killing it and reaching into the depths of my brain to make videos I want to watch. Thanks Jordan!

Man your narration is absolutely perfect. Sitting here rolling down memory lane with my husband roaring at your commentary 😂 well done 👏👏

Thank you so much for covering the show MTV's Fear. I really loved that show and I wish the show was brought back. If it was possible, I too would be on the show in a heartbeat.

I remember flicking through TV after getting off the bus and seeing MTV's airings, and deciding that watching M*A*S*H on Hallmark was a better use of my time

I remember when that FEAR show came out. The first few episodes were great. They were scary and believable thanks to really good production and editing. The later ones not so much. Sure being in an abandoned and "haunted" location can be scary AF when youre alone. But when youre walking around with 3-4 people, with multiple lights and cameras. It really takes away from that alone and afraid factor. Like the very first episode. The production crew always made sure to force the contests to either leave the safe room alone. Or if they went out in groups. Force them to split up at some point.

i remember most of these so clearly as i grew up with a teen older brother who was one of the kids who recreated stunts from jackass, there is something about 2000s mtv that brings some sort of comfort

The "what's the difference between me & you" Xzibit reference line you made was 🔥🔥🔥

Fantastic video Jordan thanks so much for chronicling the 2000s MTV vibes, which were truly special

The papercut jackass episode traumatized me😭

Please talk about Celebrity Deathmatch in part 3! That show was off the chain!! 😂

6:38 thx for explaining what this show is. I'd never watched a full episode, but I'd always end up watching the selfie cam scenes after hitting my bowl all night after work 😅

I wonder if you'll do a retrospect the Real World, Road Rules, and various competition between the two

Hopefully he mentions Scarred in part 3. I remember being a kid and thinking it was insane that there was a show of nothing but real footage of people breaking bones or somehow seriously damaging their body in another way.

the “whats the difference” reference with xzibit made my day

Great video as always Jordan. REALLY looking forward to the Nickelodeon G&S video whenever it gets done. Keep up the awesome work!

i lost it at “about five bank accounts, three ounces, and two vehicles.” 😂

There’s a show that I remember called “My Own” (I think). It’s people trying to find their own celeb look-alike. That was a fever dream for sure!

“5 bank accounts 3 ounces and 2 vehicles” 😂😂😂

I was briefly in MADE….for 5 seconds in 2010. A friend and classmate of mine in high school was featured in a episode. It was so surreal having MTV at our school for a couple of months.

This brings me back. Been. fascinated with remembering the 2000s recently, just seemed like an infinitely better time than today.

I'm really loving these longer videos, never stop never stopping!

I am very excited to see you cover silent library!

Happy you cameo’d Beyoncé 😭💕

I’m pretty sure I’ve watched every 2000s mtv show at some point in time. Thank you for this nostalgia trip

The minute you mentioned that one moment from Jackass that haunted you, I knew immediately which segment you were about to describe…because it still haunts me to this day as well

The last great era of MTV and i got to grow up during it!

It’s just crazy how far tv has changed. You could put anything on tv in the 90s 😂

Just some show ideas for your next video if you see this 1. Wonder Showzen 2. Celebrity Deathmatch 3.Doggy Fizzle Televizzle (no joke) 4.short circuit (wildn out spinoff) 5.the 70's house Hope you see this these were some of my favorites

Hey, man! I'd like to see a video just about Jackass. I remember replicating their stuns as a kid but can't recall the history or backstory. I'd love to see you expand on that. Love your videos!

Would love to see you cover The Challenge (including its prologue: The Real Word/Road Rules Challenge)!

This is such a primetime program type production dude. Great job

I was obsessed with MTV growing up in the 2000s, but after that, everything went downhill. 16 and pregnant teen mom and worst of all Jersey Shore. It just came too much with all these reality TV shows.

i am so thankful to have had two older brothers because i was allowed to watch all of these shows at like 7 years old and like 2000s MTV is forsure a time capsule. specifically the andy milanokis show…that show’s weird humor shaped me as a human

with these shows you just HAD to be there oh man the nostalgia, i was a kid when most of these aired and i remember watching them in secret lmao good times!!

Wow, the nostalgia. Thanks, Jordan.

Celebrity Deathmatch deserves its own video.

Now it’s just the Rob Dyrdek program. And unfortunately it’s sad to see where bam’s gone

I died when at 11:53 we had a second of Baltics representation and I saw a phrase in my language (Latvian) lol. love your vids

I worked for MTV in London during thus time... The crew and behind camera behaviour was wilder that the output 🤷‍♂️🤣

Love the vid! Would love to hear your take on scare tactics, that wild prank show on sci fi hosted by Tracy Morgan

Hell yeah I’ve been waiting so long for someone to do a Jersey Shore video!!!

Ayo Ironmouse had your video in a recent stream hopefully that gives you some more views on here cause you deserve it

Great video! I'm not sure if you have contemplated doing one on The Real Word/Road Rules/The Challenge universe, wouldn't be a bad idea to get your perspective & analysis from those shows too.

Ah nostalgia...i relate to your channel man keep it up

Really loving these videos. I grew up on these shows lol. 💕

Loved this! The thing with Run's house is that it was in the category of reality shows about musicians families. The Osbourne's, Nick and Jessica, Being Bobby Brown (i know it wasn't on mtv but the trend was everywhere). The popularity of it prolly doesn't make sense without context 😂

i forgot about exposed! i remember robot chicken did a really funny sketch about it that really summed it up, i never really watched Jackass and other shows like that but i grew up with MTV in general during the 90's and early 2000's for sure

"The boundary, the illusion, is gone!" *brick wall falls* perfectly symbolizing the words being spoken

Holy shit… The “five bank accounts, 3 ounces, and 2 vehicles” reference. I couldn’t not subscribe after that out of sheer respect

Thank you for validating my hatred for the Andy Milinakous Show. I remember watching it in high school and thinking it was stupid.

Thank you for giving us more.

Big Fat Liar was a post-modern masterpiece that Fringe should totally review one of these days. In this essay, I will-

That what's the difference reference was next level

I’m 34 with 2 teenagers now and I HAD TO SUBSCRIBE AND LIKE (currently binging your other videos) because the nostalgia is CHEFS KISS. I can’t wait for the 2000’s “real life” video with Bug Juice and “fat camp” and “dance camp” lol what the heck were we doing watching this at 13?!

Yes! Thank you for doing another!

I miss TV like this. Take me back to these days please!

Great video! Brought back memories of the days when I was blissfully ignorant and somewhat happy.

My sister and I were obsessed with fear and fear factor 😂

when are you gonna talk about Silent Library? It's one of the best shows MTV ever had.

Love this video! PLEASE DO HIGH SCHOOL STORIES!

The andy milonakis theme song lives rent free in my head to this day.

Bam being shown to truly be a man child who can't handle anything and going through what he has gone though the last decade makes me so happy 😂😂😂

I got SO EXCITED when you said you were working on a Nick GAS video. Not enough people talk about it and I've been wanting an in depth video about it for YEARS.

So many core memories unlocked from this video. Thank you lol

I was 12 but you better believe I would always extra clean my room just in case I was selected to be on room raiders. 💃 😂

Another fire video keep it up man

"You ready to be punked and bullied?" 😂😂

When MTV FEAR came to the Moundsville Penitentiary in WV, they painted on the walls of the rec area without permission and for awhile after their filming the prison didn’t allow tv filming

My favorite MTV show was Tru Life. I just loved the documentaries about different people

i have sensory issues from my adhd, and just the thought of touching the edge of a piece of paper sends me into a neurological tailspin, so hearing you mention the paper cut scene gave me full ptsd war flashbacks.

The Xzibit "difference between me and you" line was top fucking notch, bravo sir 🎩👌

So much nostalgia! They actually filmed an episode of made at my high school. I remember my friends and I bugging the camera guy everytime we saw him. They also did a casting for parental control at my school, my friend signed me up and I got a call from some production assistant and I was just so confused, lol

Wow you just unlock the memory for me about the whole fear show

That Kenneth Copeland bit hit well lmfaooo
