MTV takes over Palladia

I've been watching the Palladia channel for some time now and lately they were running teases about MTV Music taking over the channel. I watch it for the few shows like Live from Darryl's House and Later w/ Jools Holland and the occasional concert. Monday was the take over day and it did happen w/MTV still using the Epic,Awesome, Music tag line with the MTV logo on the lower right. What does this mean, maybe nothing and the programming stays the same. It does make me wonder how MTV went away from music to become a teen oriented channel with very poor programming leaning to the reality show genre with sparse great ideas like MTV Unplugged in the 90s.

I agree. leave it alone.

have to admit, when I first saw this, I thought - Doom Gloom, beginning of the end for Palladia. It's either old age, or I'm hanging around here with you crotchety dudes too much.
Who knows who's responsible for MTV's "decline", but apparently it seems to be doing well enough that no one cares. Their market is obviously people who have no knowledge or experience with how good it once was.I disabled signatures. -
I hear the format will be changed as the new name suggests. It will be renamed Rapalladia and the host will be Kayne West.The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
It is imperative that we recognize that an opinion is not a fact. -
And it will just be a bunch of shows with people walking around in bad moods making mean faces at everyone.I disabled signatures.

I loved Palladia and was really bummed to hear it was changing to MTV Live today. Palladia was one of the best channels on cable - great concerts, festivals, and series like Live from Daryl's House. Maybe nothing will change but I fear that the corporate giant MTV will water things down. I hope not. Time will tell.

MTV has always owned Palladia.If you can't hear a difference, don't waste your money.

MTV has always owned Palladia.
Yeah that's true. That's why Palladia showed MTV videos too.
It's basically appears to be just a name change but I question the strategy. I love Palladia but rarely watch MTV. The Palladia name helped differentiate the two. Now it has the appearance of being just more of the same MTV garbage (even if it actually isn't).
