On Monday MTV dropped the phrase "Music Television" from their iconic logo. It makes perfect sense to anyone who's tuned in to MTV in the past decade, you know, ever since they stopped showing actual music videos.
But with that big, old M still anchoring their name and logo, we can't help but ask: What's the M stand for anyway?
We took this question to our Facebook fans..And with your help, dear
BuddyTV fans, we've come up with 20 possible replacements for the M in
MTV. Sign in and tell us what your favorite is. Or better yet, add
your own M word.

According to Dictionary.com meretricious is defined as "alluring by a show of flashy or vulgar attractions; tawdry. Based on pretense, deception, or insincerity. Pertaining to or characteristic of a prostitute." If that doesn't define MTV's current programming, I don't know what does.
