Audience Rating: Unrated Binding: DVD EAN: 9786305879794 Format: Color, Compilation, NTSC ISBN: 6305879796 Label: Sony Languages: Manufacturer: Sony Publisher: Sony Region Code: 1 Release Date: July 18, 2000 Running Time: 46 minutes Studio: Sony Theatrical Release Date: June 27, 2000 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The wildly popular afternoon video request show hosted by Carson Daly on MTV, a modern American bandstand featuring a live audience, appearances by pop stars, and a crowd of onlookers who clog the sidewalks outside the cable network's Times Square studio, is given both a "best of" and "behind the scenes" treatment in this video. Christina Aguilera appears in the studio to wiggle and lip-sync her way through "Genie in a Bottle," and a few boy bands, including 'N Sync and the Backstreet Boys, show up to look serious, croon their tunes, and make the young girls in the audience squeal and squirm. Seemingly as a deliberate counterweight to the carefully packaged entertainment that's a mainstay of the show, production personnel appear in interviews to talk about how the live show is spontaneous and often plagued by mistakes, including guests who don't show up on time and audience members whose behavior or language isn't exactly ideal for afternoon television. A remote segment with Limp Bizkit, whose heavily tattooed frontman Fred Durst ends his performance at a beach resort by literally blowing up a boat, seems to have been tagged on the end to counter the sugary quality of earlier performers. This is an entertaining look at the show, and those who wouldn't miss it every afternoon will no doubt love seeing how the show gets produced. --Robert J. McNamara Average Rating:
 Rating: - The Melting Pot......."Total Request Live" mixes pop with rock, rap,and r&b throughout their hour time slot. Preteens and teens enjoy voting via phone or through the official TRL Website at the MTV.com, then wait for the results to emerge. Totals often are shown, during the earlier years 1998,1999. Kids pack the studio, or the streets below in anticipation of their favorite acts being closeup,unscripted,and in your face! No matter how many times an artist returns,viewers see them in a raw, and open setting. ...

Rating:  - Ugh!This tape could've been so much better. The best parts, in fact they are the only parts you should watch, are the performances by the individual artists and groups. The rest is thoughts from other people and it's very boring. I had to pinch myself to stay awake when I was watching it, and I love TRL. Honestly, even if you love the show, you will probably HATE this video. It is not a masterpiece. It's not a work of art. It's a boring tape that is only redeemed in the performances of the singers ... Read More Rating: - OKThis video was ok, i watched it as soon as i got it, but i have not watched it since, it is not one of those movies where you can watch it over and over again. Rating: - Kind of boringThis video is boring. I love TRL and it just didn't really interest me. The performances were cool, but the whole "behind the scenes" parts were very boring. If you want this video because you love TRL, I would highly recommend not buying it. If you want the performances, then, by all means, get it! |
