The first episode chronicled the aftermath of the rise and fall of infamous musical duo Milli Vanillinote that was updated seven months later after Rob Pilatus' untimely death and it remained one of the network's most popular and longest-running shows, ultimately ending in 2014.The series was rebooted in 2021 and airs exclusively on Paramount+ under the MTV branding.See also MTV's Driven and BIOrhythm and TV One's Unsung, three later shows that would closely follow this show's format. | |

Vanilla Ice's 1994 album, Mind Blowin', was outright stated to be this, making references to drug use and violence, which was reflective of his own real-life mood at the time. | |

Darker and Edgier: Later in his career, MC Hammer became a gangsta rapper, dropped the "M.C." from his name, and his songs were more lewd and sexually suggestive. By the time of the episode's airing though, he went back to his lighter and softer roots. Vanilla Ice's 1994 album, Mind Blowin', was outright stated to be this, making references to drug use and violence, which was reflective of his own real-life mood at the time. | |

Necktie Headband: Mentioned in the Bobby Brown episode where on one of New Edition's album cover, while the gentleman were to wear formal attire (button down shirts, pants, ties, etc.), Bobby instead wore his around his forehead, either as a sign of independence or defiance, which angered the rest of the group. Him wearing it like so made it into the final project. | |

The Cameo | |
Behind the Music / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Fellow musicians and other celebrities sometimes appear the featured artist's episode, such as Lenny Kravitz appearing in Vanilla Ice's episode due to their friendship. Actors Gary Busey and Lou Diamond Phillips, who starred as Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens, respectively, in two well-received films about their lives and untimely deaths, makes appearances in "The Day the Music Died". Infamous Hollywood executive/producer Harvey Weinstein appeared briefly in Madonna's episode as he produced her Truth or Dare documentary. She had wished for him to edit out the part where she said during a game of "truth or dare" that she still had feelings for her former husband Sean, but Weinstein told her the only way that the line would be cut is if she killed him. Talk show host Arsenio Hall makes an appearance in good friend's MC Hammer episode, even expressing sympathy towards him regarding his well-known financial crisis. | |

Cruel to Be Kind: In the Boy George episode, his brother, David, went on the news in the late 80s to admit his brother's drug addiction even after Boy publicly claiming himself in interviews to be clean. While he considered it a betrayal and became estranged from his younger brother for some time, it was only in an effort to save his life. Happily, by the time of the episode's airing, they had reunited, with Boy even proudly showing off pictures displayed in his home of his young nieces, David's children. | |

Stage Mom: Discussed in Leif Garrett's episode. His mother admitted that she wasn't one, giving her son a relatively long leash, but she came to regret this, even mentioning how Brooke Shields' mother Teri was an infamous one (so much that two women were at one point estranged, albeit this was also for things her mother did allow to happen under her watch), but that they "didn't mess with her kid". | |

"Too Young to Die" Lamentation | |
Behind the Music / int_43285966 | comment |
"Too Young to Die" Lamentation: The Andy Gibb episode featured an excerpt from his very last recording, "Arrow Through the Heart", that includes the phrase "I'm too young to die" twice in succession. He would die less than a year after recording the song, which wouldn't see a release until it was included in a 2010 compilation of songs by him and his older brothers, the Bee Gees. | |

Creator Backlash | |
Behind the Music / int_48d94bb8 | comment |
Creator Backlash: Discussed in-universe where an artist has regret over a particular work regardless of its popularity. For instance, Ann and Nancy Wilson disliked the image they portrayed in the 80s although some of their most beloved hits came out at this time and Flea of Red Hot Chili Peppers expressed dislike about "Weird Al" Yankovic's song parody of their song "Give it Away".note the former felt that way due to executives pushing Ann into the background for music videos due to her supposed weight gain and the latter is a fan of Al, but he thought the "Bedrock Anthem" was corny. For what it's worth, in the years since Al has more or less agreed with him. | |

That Syncing Feeling: You know exactly who. When they were in concert and the skip happened, they first tried to play along at first only to then run offstage. After being ordered to go back on, they continued. And while the fans and their friend, music presenter Downtown Julie Brown, didn't care and still enjoyed their music, the critics began to get suspicious and it marked the beginning of the end of their careers. | |

Dysfunction Junction: Often during episodes featuring bands, the professional and personal strife among its members leads to either a breakup or a decline in their popularity/talent, if not both. Notable examples include The Go-Go's (involving drugs, debauchery and fighting/jealousy among its members), The Mamas & the Papas (involving in-band relationships that ended messily, depression and death) and Fleetwood Mac (all of the above). | |

That said, unlike his contemporaries (namely MC Hammer), he has remained well-off. invoked | |

Forgiveness | |
Behind the Music / int_b75b35ac | comment |
Forgiveness: Some episodes explore this theme: The Leif Garrett episode contains a tearful reunion of him and his former best friend, Roland Winkler, who was left a paraplegic following a 1979 DUI crash he caused. Roland said that the crash actually saved his life and that he didn't hold any ill will towards him over it. The two men remained close until the latter's 2017 death. Averted in the case of Vinnie Paul and Phil Anselmo. After the latter told a magazine that the former's brother, Dimebag Darrell, should be beaten severely and his subsequent murder later on that year, several friends of both men knew that it would be impossible for Vinnie to forgive Phil. True to form, the only time the two men ever spoke again was a phone call after Phil had been banned from attending Darrell's funeral. Vinnie died in 2019, leaving their relationship permanently broken. Subverted in the case of Darrell's longtime girlfriend, Rita Haney; at the end of the original episode, she said she would never forgive him, but the Remastered episode's ending had her discuss an encounter she and Phil had years later where he earnestly apologized to her and she forgave him. | |

Behind the Music / int_bee8baee | comment |
Faint in Shock: Discussed plenty of times: In the Ricky Nelson episode, after learning of her father's death, his daughter Tracy said she fainted in response. Defied in Cher's case: when delivering her tearful eulogy of Sonny Bono at his funeral, she admitted to her sister that she had to lock her knees together to keep herself from fainting, which is not recommended, either (as doing so for too long will cause blood to rush to your head and make you more likely to collapse). She also said that she didn't know at the time that the funeral was being broadcast live on CNN; otherwise she would have fainted. | |

Self-Deprecation | |
Behind the Music / int_c9597a03 | comment |
Self-Deprecation: The "Weird Al" Yankovic episode parodies the show's penchant for mining entertainment out of personal drama. Among other things, Yankovic jokingly whines that he could only afford a medium jacuzzi because Polka Party! only went gold instead of platinum, and Mark Mothersbaugh's jealousy towards the Title Track of Dare to Be Stupid is played up as an Amadeus-style rivalry, complete with melodramatic Chiaroscuro lighting during his interview. | |

Breakup Breakout | |
Behind the Music / int_ca49d764 | comment |
Breakup Breakout: Plenty of times, one or several members of a recording group have had a successful career after either leaving the band or its disbandment altogether. invoked Bobby Brown was the most successful, if not infamous, member of New Edition (although Johnny Gill and Bell Biv DeVoe had pretty successful careers themselves minus even a third of the controversy that he generated). Of The Go-Go's, while Jane Wiedlin and Charlotte Caffey have tried their hands at individual careers, with the latter going on to have a respectable career as a songwriter for other artists, the breakout artist of the group was Belinda Carlisle. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
Behind the Music / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: Plenty of people, namely any surviving band members and artists, tend to have earned this by the end of their episodes (such as Vanilla Ice, Boy George, M.C. Hammer, Madonna, etc.) Though unexpected life turns do happen and either undermine or completely ruin this... | |

Darkest Hour: Several artists reach this point, usually in the midst of a career downturn or personal tragedy. | |

How the Mighty Have Fallen | |
Behind the Music / int_f933e594 | comment |
How the Mighty Have Fallen: Another reoccurring theme of the series. One notable lampshading was in Vanilla Ice's episode where his manager stated that after his severe backlash that he went from selling out arenas to not being able to get into Knott's Berry Farm, which was free. | |

Sorrowful Stutter | |
Behind the Music / int_fbdcf28d | comment |
Sorrowful Stutter: Happens often in an episode, especially when talking about a deceased loved one or a traumatic event. Celine Dion displayed one when discussing her husband Rene's cancer battle, which sadly would take his life two decades after her episode aired. | |
