Joe's Apartment (Original MTV Short)

This is the original MTV short film "Joe's Apartment" that eventually spawned the full length movie of the same name. The short first aired in 1992 as filler between breaks.

I uploaded this because I thought people who enjoyed the film might want to see where it all started. If MTV insists that I take this down then I won't argue, I just want to preserve some history and share some nostalgia.

I got this film from a torrent site that wishes to remain anonymous - I don't want to take credit for it, it wasn't me that ripped it so I don't deserve any credit.

I forgot how funny this MTV short was. The movie really sucked though!

@8cire I don't understand why so many people hate the film. I think it's fantastic! Well written, funny and some cracking songs. IMO, anyways.

I miss the old MTV when videos were actually played. Everything has changed from the 80's to the 90's. I am going to come up with a petition for MTV to tell them to go back to playing videos again.
