Spike (film series)

Spike/Butch was a short-lived animation cartoon series by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. The title character was also a recurring antagonist in the Droopy shorts. His name was changed to Butch to avoid confusion with Spike from the Tom and Jerry cartoons. All of the original, 1940s-50s shorts were directed by Tex Avery.

    Precursors

    The Nashville Network era (1983–2000)

    Spike was launched on March 7, 1983 as The Nashville Network, a country living and country music-themed television channel that originally operated as a joint venture of WSM, Inc. (a subsidiary of National Life and Accident Insurance Company) and Group W Satellite Communications. TNN operated from the now-defunct Opryland USA theme park near Nashville, Tennessee. Country Music Television (CMT), founded by Glenn D. Daniels, beat TNN's launch by two days, robbing them of the claim of the "first country music cable television network." TNN's flagship shows included Nashville Now, The Statler Brothers Show, American Sports Cavalcade and Grand Ole Opry Live. Nashville Now and the Grand Ole Opry were broadcast live from Opryland USA.

    by: The Network

    Hey this Brandon but my friends call me Spike now.
    I just moved out my parents' house in Danville
    to this wicked warehouse in Oakland.
    Anyway I spent most of the day spare-changing on the avenue.
    I started out infront of the Med
    but everyone kept saying I looked too young and healthy
    so I went up the street to the Gap where all the
    yuppie college kids shop
    I was there until about 5:30 or 6
    I scored about 10 bucks
    so me and my girlfriend, you met her, she's from La Jolla
    anyway, we got some money from her parents
    so we're gonna stop by because
    I need a fix
    What's that?
    Now's not a good time?
    What do you mean there's none left?
    Well what the fuck dude?
    If I would have known that I would have gone to Concord.
    What do you mean go back to Concord then?
    Dude you don't even know who you're talking to.
    Don't make me get all blackhawk on your ass.
    wait man I didn't mean that.
    C'mon dude, please?
    Alright man.
    wait wait wait wait
    Do you know anyone that's got any?
    Do you got a number?

    I called because
    I need a fix
    Man I got it rough
    when drinking cough syrup
    just ain't enough
    On and on
    I'm a teenage rebel
    I'm fucking bored

    I need a fix
    I'm a teenage rebel
