MTV has announced plans to resurrect their seminal alternative music program 120 Minutes. The two-hour show, which originally ran weekly on MTV from 1986 to 2000 and then on MTV2 from 2001 to 2003, will return to MTV2 on a monthly basis. Matt Pinfield, perhaps the program's best known host, will return to host the new show. A weekly online counterpart, 120 Seconds, will air on the website MTV Hive.As much as I want to say, "Yes, it's about time," I'm afraid it's irrelevant except that, assuming you're a bit like me, we'll check the playlist, see if there's anything we we haven't heard yet, skip the stuff we already know is crap, and go to YouTube to see if the new stuff is any good.
