Every time I turn on BET, they are showing BET Now on repeat from 2006. They did it twice in a row last night including videos like prince's fury, cassie's me and you, ne yo's sexy love, some lil jon song and so forth, in the same order!

why does this surprise you? It's BET!!!!

but why not do that with current videos and why a show from 3 years ago? It makes no sense, BET makes no sense.

there you go, you answered your own question.

Fuck Viacom

you blame viacom for 2006?

First off, BET has not been good since Bob Johnson sold it to Viacom, and ever since then all they show is stereotypical bullshit and constant reruns and shit like that. I have lost respect for BET when I found out how they had a list of banned videos and artist deemed as "too intelligent". WTF???!!!

Why is EBT STILL on tv?

ViintageJunkiie said:

Because Black people are watching it, that's why!!!!!

It should have been off air years ago .. they have no substance

ViintageJunkiie said:

Of course they don't. It hasn't been good in years, but if there is still people watching it, it will always exist. Complaining to viacom is not going to do it at this point. I'm black and I barely watched BET as a kid and even when I was watching it religiously when I was 14 it was beginning to suck, no thanks to Bob Johnson!!! BEt is a modern day mistrel, difference is that black people are doing this to themselves!

NastradumasKid said:

Yes, BET has went to the dogs, now. BTW, I haven't seen you post here in a while, I post sometimes. How are you

I'm pretty good I'm pretty busy with school but I'm cool!!! BET is going to hell in a damn handbasket!!! And what the hell is up with this show called "The Deal"? Its supposedly replacing "Rap City" but it fails miserably if you ask me. Its almost like "106 N Park" but even more talnetless and boring.

bet

Thank you but the destruction of the black race is not going stop with hugs!!!!

it isn't just BET. turn on TLC, ironically titled "The Learning Channel," and all it is is home makeover shows and reality shows about shrews and their litters of offspring.

NastradumasKid said:

Wish I could tell you what's up, but . Thank God I don't watch too much TV. Good luck in your studies. My daughter is struggling as a freshman in high school, but she'll make it. You will too

angel345 said:

LOL I remember being a freshman, that was four years ago, I'm in college and I'm trying my best. I hope you're doing well. Anyway, BET sucks in fact I can go all talking about how bad it it.

They think they had to the honor to be the first video outlet to play Alicia Keys new video I was like "yall the only damn video outlet left" thats why. She would've went to TRL first.

NastradumasKid said:

Thanks

Harlepolis said:

DITTO! Seems like all of the EBT shows are degrading towards black folks, making us look bad. I even get embarrassed when I'm at someones house and they're watching it.

NastradumasKid said:

ive been saying this for YEARS

PurpleDiamond2009 said:

Better question is why does BET still function.

NastradumasKid said:

You're crazy if you think black people are the ones keeping BET on the air.

NastradumasKid said:

Is BET that serious to make you question your identity??? Ummmmm, okay.
