Ok, I don't think FIRST could go wrong with being shown on MTV. While we work after school and on weekends building our robots, there are kids whose lives consist of making sure they see every single episode of Real World and Road Rules. Sad as it is, some people take Carson Daly's approval to be like the word of God...so if FIRST was shown in a positive light on MTV, suddenly it'd be 'cool' to build robots. So I think that way, FIRST would get more interest with a huge audience. And as to what particular show it would be on...I have no clue. If I had more time to watch MTV, maybe I'd be more familiar with their shows. Something that airs weekly would be nice though, and not *too* unrealistic.

Just my thoughts.
