The Death Of The TV Presenter

We love you RB we watch you everyday on MTV

Although you probably didn't know, that was a line from a song Richard Blackwood (a presenter on MTV) released back when he and MTV and importantly to this post TV presenters were at their peak. Reality TV has killed most TV presenters off, it's a crying shame (for wannabe presenters anyhoo). Somewhere between Michael Barrymore finding a dead man in his pool after a cocaine bender and John Leslie having a 3 way sex romp, TV presenting has become less called for. Most reality TV shows basically present themselves thus taking away the need for some muppett to present them, of course Big Brother and Space Cadets were two exceptions to the rule. MTV still has it's
TRL with the very likeable Dave Berry and Alex Zane, but as my post so clearly points out (and since when was I ever wrong? Apart from all the time) they are a dying breed, and by dying I mean they just aren't as popular.
