* UnintentionalPeriodPiece: Much like a lot of Creator/{{MTV}}'s reality shows of the day, this one perfectly captures the flashy pop culture of the early 2000s. The pampering and mounds of free gifts each fan gets marks it as a product of something made before the 2008 recession, and many of the gifts include then-state of the art technology - with games consoles from the second generation, a lack of [=iPods=] and analog televisions (one of which is even in the opening sequence). It's a time capsule of what music was popular at the time - when Nick Lachey and Music/JessicaSimpson were still together, and Music/JustinTimberlake was more famous as a member of Music/{{NSync}}.

* TheyJustDidntCare: One rather aggravating example occurred when they re-created the Music/DestinysChild song "Say My Name".

Not sufficient enough


* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: Billed as a family friendly show but quite a few of the music videos chosen certainly blur the lines such as Enrique Iglesisas's "Escape", Eminem's "Without Me" and Britney Spears's "I'm A Slave 4 U". Though they did draw the line with some videos, notably cutting out the end of Jennifer Lopez's "Love Don't Cost A Thing" where Jennifer strips off.
