#12: Total Request Live (TRL)
If Total Request Live doesn’t sound familiar, I’m sure TRL does. The most MTV-appropriate show on our list, TRL, ran for 20 seasons from 1998 to 2008 (and then again from 2017 to 2019) with over 2200 episodes(!). Here, the stars of the show were the string of music videos in between riffs from hosts. Viewers watched as the music videos counted down to the most popular. Caron Daly was the first and best host of the series who stayed with it until 2003.
