Ten years ago MTV began an afternoon request/countdown video show called TRL for Totally Request Live. On November 16 the show will end its run. When MTV came on the air in the early eighties it was an all music network, but in recent years the network has been scaling back the music programming to virtually nothing. TRL is among the last to go.
On October 14 Beyonce stopped by the show to talk about her latest album and two new singles. It was also revealed that Beyonce will be on TRL for the final show.
Ludacris has also announced that he will stop by the show to help bid the show a fond farewell.
According to MTV officials the show isn't officially being cancelled only taking an extended hiatis and may return at a later date in an abreviated form.
Instead of airing in its usual afternoon slot the final episode of TRL will air in prime time at 8pm.
