Wednesday, August 3, 2005 at 7:42 PM The closest I have ever gotten to seeing Loveline the TV shows was Lovelines on Dawson's Creek, sad I know. I am interested in how the show ran. I see from IMDB that it was a 60 minute show - which surprised me for an MTV show, I know they had a number of female hosts. Could someone fill me in as to how the show ran, and how it compared to the radio show. Was it more question based or celebrity based? Did they get to many calls? Did the questions come from studio viewers or by other means (phone, fax, email?) - did they show the face of who asked the question? What did the third host do? Did they always have a guest, were they usually musical in nature, or just regular celebs? Basically, can you fill me in on how the show worked? And in general, what do fans of the radio show think of the MTV show? How do the two compare? —Laxdude |

Edited Thursday, August 4, 2005 at 6:10 AM They had a couple of different female hosts over the life of the show, Diane Farr (now on Rescue Me) is the only one I can remember off-hand. The third host was the one roaming the audience and would throw in their opinion t provide a female take. They would take calls and also take questions from the audience (and I believe the occasional fax). Audience members who were too embarrassed could ask their questions from behind a screen where all you'd see was their silhouette. The guests from the handful of episodes I saw, were pretty similar to what they have on the radio show - bands, TV actors and c-list movie actors. Personally, I never liked it but that was partly because I never really gave it a chance to overcome my built-in negative impressions. First off, it was on MTV so I figured it was for idiots like the rest of their programming. Second, most of the people I knew who liked it were idiots. Third, it featured 'televised Adam' - and we all know that ain't his best showcase. I wasn't even aware of the radio show at the time (1996), I came across it a year later one night flipping the dial and after one episode I was hooked. Now I kinda wish the show was still on. —Beat It! |

Thursday, August 4, 2005 at 8:27 AM Chris McGawhaw (that was spelled semi-phonetically) was one of the first female hosts. The show blew big time. I was a huge fan of the radio show so I was biased at the time, but man I hated that show--it seemed like they took all the edge from A & D. I'm sure Adam was probably told not to talk about Hitler, the Holocaust, ect. They had a different set of euphemisms about beating off (it was something like "releasing your chi") that they used for the first couple of seasons because they didn't want Adam saying "jack off". —bguirk |
