As a kid growing up in the 80s MTV was just always there and always referenced after say '85 in tv and movies as everyone knows it. But I am Canadian we only had Much Music after we moved and couldn't take our satellite dish (never watched much anyways to be honest I was under 10). Similar but definitely the budget version.

Always remember the music video with puppet Reagan hitting the nuke button. Though I did watch many videos back in the day....prefer electronica style music though so was never my thing back then even.
