''Subterranean'' was a weekly music show on MTV2 dedicated to alternative, indie, and underground music and artists. The show was made as the modern-day continuation of MTV's ''120 Minutes''. The show was hosted by MTV2 VJ Jim Shearer from its debut in 2003 to 2007. It continued without a host and with sporadic guest appearances by bands from 2007 to 2011. Every week, an alternative artist or band was the show's guest for an interview, and music videos by that band and other indie artists were played. During each one-hour episode, an average of nine music videos were played. == Format == The show was made up of music videos and, if there is a guest, interview segments with a band conducted by an off-camera interviewer. Usually after the first video, MTV2 would play a "shart," which is a short, random video clip, and then play the second music video. Two or three music videos were shown consecutively between commercial breaks. If there is a guest, the show aired five or six separate interview clips with them as well as their current music video. In its previous incarnation, at about ten minutes before ''Subterranean'' began, a short lead with Jim Shearer aired in which he informed viewers about the upcoming special guest and notes some of the videos that were to be shown. When the show started, Shearer repeated most of the information from the lead and then introduced the first music video of the show. After about twenty-five minutes into the show, Shearer would introduce the guest and begin the interview. Following the next segment, the latest music video by the special guest artist or band would play. The remainder of the show would features another segment of the interview, the final video, and the sign-off with Shearer. Occasionally, the guest artist would choose the list of videos for the show. The show has also aired special editions dedicated to awards, musical genres and for the viewer-selected top videos of the year. The show was also broadcast online, via MTV.com. The online version of the show includes more interviews with the featured artist, more commentary by Shearer, and extra videos, sometimes chosen by the guest. In August 2008, MTV.com launched a comprehensive back catalogue of past episodes of ''Subterranean'', making the show viewable online. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Subterranean (TV series)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
