Boomchild Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 FYI, according to the schedule on www.vh1.com for VH1 Classic they will be airing a "Styx Behind The Music Remastered episode on Jan. 14th at 9:00pm EST. This may be interesting or just more rehash then anything new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Roboto571985 Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 This is cool news, I've seen the original airing, but a while ago on you tube. It will be very interesting to see if anything new will be said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be very interesting to see if anything new will be said. What would be interesting is if anyone has given updated interviews. Neither Dennis' camp nor Styx' has made any comment about this so I don't expect to see new interviews. But, you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladybugking Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 Both camps hated this when it reached its final, heavily-edited-to-create-a-villain-(Dennis), made its way to VH1. I have read/heard that some footage was left out of the original and that may be the "remastered" part of this. I really doubt if anyone contributed new interviews, but VH1 might slot in new footage of Touring Styx to update it a bit. The Journey BTM was originally 1 1/2 hours and was shown maybe only once in that length, then further airings were 1 hour. I would like to see that one again, but I think that band feels the same way that Styx does about their program. Trivia: The Styx BTM was the second most-watched of these shows, behind only the debut program on Milli Vanilli. People had great curiosity about Styx, I think, since so little was out there publicity-wise and what was, to many, a sort of mystery band. This BTM on them contributed a LOT to the polarizing of the fan base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Posted January 9, 2012 Report Share Posted January 9, 2012 From what I understand the "remastered" is more like a "part 2" to the original BTM. We shall see. What does everyone think about doing a "Tweet while you watch" while the episode airs? It could be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What does everyone think about doing a "Tweet while you watch" while the episode airs? It could be interesting. Really? Oh wow. If it is sort an addendum/remake Part 2, we know for sure it will scald Dennis even more and probably present the current band in a bright light of positivity. Ugh! I am on Twitter, but doubt I want to deal with this, Ron. I kinda stick to the feed I have, which seems to suck up way more time than I should allow.

You just hashtag your comments, and do a search for that hashtag (which will update like your regular feed, but not replace your regular feed. It's something common that people have been doing more and more recently, and makes watching tv a bit more interactive. I'll post a separate thread asking for opinions if there is any interest.
