This review is from: Mtv Sports: Longer Harder Faster [VHS] (VHS Tape)

In the summer of 1996, MTV aired a regularly programmed show called "MTV Sports". Recently, I had unearthed a video tape that had some of the episodes recorded sequentially onto it. For example, one episode featured freefall photographer Joe Jennings training to BASE jump off of Angel Falls. A skating episode featured some hot venues across the country for skateboarding and agressive in-line skating. A snowboarding episode featured 5 people on a to-die-for road trip across the Rockies in an RV. Then, there was the Warped Tour '96 episode, and so on. I was hoping that those elements and their spirit would be the center piece of this video. Instead, all this extreme aficianado got were snippets of these sports (much like an orphan being fed charitable crumbs). The most prominent feature of this tape was Dan "The Ham" Cortese's skit audition for a movie career. If anyone from MTV should happen upon this review, I recommend that you check your archives and re-release the 1996 episodes of "MTV Sports" onto video. If they'll put the f-cking "Real World" on DVD, then surely they can do the same for "MTV Sports". If anything, let Redline Sports Entertainment have the rights to distribute it onto video and DVD. It's just such a waste for that show to go into obscurity. I'm fervently of the view that it could compete on the shelves with all of the extreme sports videos that are being released even today.
