Is MTV Going To Air It's Spring Break Programming?
It was supposed to have started yesterday, but it looks like it was pulled because of the war. Anyone know if they are going to air it?

They probably will postpone it. I also noticed that they just stopped promoting it and went on "somber" mode, resorting to reruns of some shows, news updates, and then giant blocks of videos, played in the same order over and over again (They did that after 9/11 and every year towards New Year's they also do that.)
It does seem inapproriate to show a bunch of drunk college students embarass themselves on national television while troops are fighting overseas.
They may air it next week, but I guess it would all depend on how events turn out. If Saddam decides to surrender tomorrow and the war ends by Tuesday, then we may be back to normal. Nothing's for sure, though.

MTV Spring Break is entertaining stuff, but has been going downhill the past couple years. Knowing MTV, they will most definately air this sometime, and will play the hell out of it.

Where does MTV do their taping now for Spring Break? I have heard that they get run out of every town they pull into after a year or two.
