Because we all want to talk about “Teen Mom 2”

Recently, MTV has created a future which accompanies their online TV shows. The feature allows viewers to interact and “chat” to each other via Facebook. If you are already singed into Facebook, it recognizes this fact and instantly logs you into the discussion. Therefore, you can add your comments and questions to the forum while watching the show and communicate with other fans.

Personally, I have never used this forum but I do see the appeal of gossiping with people from around the world and adding comments like “She really should get child support payment from him.”

Another great benefit is that the producers and executives at MTV can review the comments and get instant feedback on the show. This feature demonstrates the true power of social media by locking consumers into the MTV website while still giving them the comfort of their facebook and a medium to voice their opinions. The fact that it also provides exact feedback about the programs simply adds to the overall brilliance of the application.
