‘Death Valley’ Show on MTV Proves Two Things: 1) MTV Has No Interest in Music, and 2) MTV Hates the Differently Animated

Here’s something that came to us via the grapevine recently: MTV, which for the younger out there once stood for ‘Music Television’, has a new Anti-Differently Animated show in the works, which slams Vampires, Werewolves and Zombies in order to stage some wacky COPS-style sitcom.

Seriously:

Holy shit! Check out the trailer for “DEATH VALLEY,” the MTV series about cops that chase zombies, vampires and werewolves. I kicked it all off back in January and directed the first two episodes.

There’s some history to shows dealing with the Differently Animated or somewhat similar characters in the context of police work; ‘Special Unit 2′ dealt with many Non-Conventionally Human characters, both villains and protagonists. ‘Angel’, the spinoff from Joss Whedon’s ‘Buffy the Vampire Slayer’, also featured a number of the Differently Animated, though rarely Zombies, and not in a particularly flattering light when they did appear.

Still, whereas ‘Angel’ tried to address the topic of the plight of the DA as a class seriously, and ‘Special Unit 2′ did so comedically, this new show ‘Dead Valley’ is just crass, ugly and defamatory, if the trailer is any indication.

Look at that! Teaching a kindergarten (or so) aged class how to kill Zombies? The casual, wanton violence? The obvious hatred? The police brutality?

This is a very, very ugly show by all appearances. The trailer by itself would easily earn a Living Supremacist rating; one imagines the actual episodes could only be worse still.

Tragic and shocking.

Why couldn’t MTV stick to programming at least tangentially related to music? Even ‘Beavis and Butthead’ was a music video satire at first. Why do we have to have violent, Anti-Zombie sludge like ‘Death Valley’ shoved down our throats instead?

Is MTV just that Anti-Zombie?
