Why Doesn't MTV Play Music Videos?

It's a burning question from music aficionados: "Why doesn't MTV play music videos anymore?"

Sketch comedy duo Brian Firenzi and Maria Carmen attempt to provide an answer in the above clip in which he plays a MTV executive and she acts as Natalie Jones, a concerned viewer in her mid-20s.

The faux exec rips into Natalie and her generation, blaming them for the downfall of music videos and pointing her to the obvious places -- like YouTube -- to find what she so dearly wants.

One can't help but wonder if there's truth to the biting humor, so Mashable contacted MTV for a comment.

"F**k that," an MTV spokesperson said (for real). "Natalie always has a home at MTV."
