Station Zero is an American daily adult animated/live-action hybrid series that aired on MTV for one season in early 1999, airing Monday through Friday at 6:30 pm.[1] The show followed a group of four Bronx teenagers who ran a fictional public-access television show called Live from the Bronx, where they watched hip hop videos and critiqued them in a similar manner as that of Beavis and Butt-head.[2] It was based on A View From Da' Unda'Ground, a comic strip from the same team which ran in The Source from 1991 to 1994.[3]
In the United Kingdom, the show aired on MTV Base in 1999, being among the first shows to air on the newly created network.[4]
The show was eventually canceled after only one season of twenty episodes. While it was primarily canceled for its lower ratings, it's speculated that it was because the producers and writers knew of this show's quick demise because of low ratings, and the animated cast walks off into the sunset in the finale.[5]
