106 & Park

106 & Park is the BET music video show that counts down the top videos of the day with hosts Terrence J and Rocsi. Getting its name from the streets where the show originally filmed in Harlem, New York, the show got its start in September of 2000. When the network was bought by Viacom, they moved to Hell's Kitchen in Manhattan. 106 & Park shows the hottest rap, hip hop, and r&b videos of the day, hosting celebrity guests, studio performances, and segments like freestyle Fridays. Videos are voted onto the countdown, and if a video is voted on 60 times, it gets retired and placed into the '106 & Park Hall of Fame', with artists like Bow Wow and Alliyah having the most videos in the hall. Featuring a lively studio audience, the show is full of fun, excitement, and surprises. The show started as a one hour countdown, then became 90 minutes in 2001. In 2008 most episodes moved to a two hour format. The show began with hosts A.J. Calloway and Free, who hosted until 2005's tearjerking announcement that they would both be leaving. After a BET New Faces contest, Rosci and Terrence J took over the hosting duties. In August 2008, the show celebrated it's 2,000th episode, and the show's 10-year anniversary special is slated for October 6, 2010 and is sure to be a star-studded event. MORE
