Subject: MTV show called BUZZ info?
Written By: yippee on 01/31/03 at 08:48 a.m.
Anyone have any info on a very cool but short lived show that MTV ran in the 80s called BUZZ.
It was NOT a music show. (not Buzz-Bin or Buzz-Clips related)
Each episode had a theme (word or phrase) that people interviewed from all over the globe would comment on. It was very artsy, with fast paced animated iconographic images with industrial/world music under, as well as superimposed text quotes, interspersed between the head-shot interview-ees.
I'm pretty sure that few people saw it, but it was my favorite show at the time, and I'm trying to hunt down anything I can find on it.
Buzz, and later Liquid Television, were proof that the little guy, which MTV was at the time, could indeed sneak greatness onto the tube. Any info would be appreciated.
