No.  I knew this day would come when Rhett and Link, the popular YouTube channel, would go to far for me.

The new GMM shirt is a total rip off (or damn similar) of the MTV type logo.

The 80's are an institution that I Love.  (That might explain why I belong in one)

Everyone knows the price of being successful is always producing merch items. 

However, MTV type shirts just hits too close to home.

Most of their younger fan base might not remember the life changing impact seeing the flag being planted on the moon back on MTV's first day, August 1, 1981 by the Moon Man.




Or have to survive in the knowledge that it's the  “Video Killed The Radio Star” by The Buggles as the first aired video on MTV.

How about just stop sending out shirts just to let many seem hip and come up with something fresh?

How about posting GMM on the back of the shirts or just change the shirts into various colors?

      Of course I won't stop watching the videos because it's been part of my morning routine for so long I can't imagine not having them. Support doesn't co-inside with difference of opinion for me. #GMM will always have my Support. <3

  6. 5 Stars. U think w/12 million subscribers they wouldn't need to use a classic to make more money. Sad.

  8. Why are you watching those fakers? They only in it for the money and if they weren't pretty they wouldn't have made it this far.

  12. Rhett and Link have been doing STUPID stuff for so long so I am not surprised that they try to grab the MTV kids to line their pockets.
