MTV started in New York City in 1981 and became available in most of the United States in the mid 1980s with the nationwide expansion of cable.
MTV started off showing music videos nearly full-time, but as time passed they introduced a variety of other shows, including animated cartoons such as Beavis and Butthead and Daria, "reality" shows such as The Real World and Road Rules, prank/comedic shows such as The Tom Green Show, Buzzkill and Jackass, and sitcoms such as Undressed.
Because of its visibility, MTV comes under scrutiny as an icon of crass commercialism, accused of denigrating the importance of music in the music industry, replacing it with a purely visual aesthetic, bereft of cultural resonance, and critical intelligence.

 After 120 Minutes | Ask MetaFilter
That did have some cool stuff but this show was more like one long form experimental video dealing with a particualr theme such as patriotism, love, apathy, revenge, etc. I fear the wiki's list is incomplete as none of those shows seem to be the one I seek.
