The MTV Generation is a term sometimes used to refer to youth of the late 20th century born between 1975-1986.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The term can mean different things to different people, and is sometimes used synonymously with the terms Generation X or Generation Y.[7]
History
The phrase was featured on The Simpsons in the 1992 episode "Homer's Triple Bypass", with the characters Bart and Lisa referring to themselves as such, describing the MTV Generation as ones that "feel neither highs nor lows". When Homer asks what it's like, Lisa replies "meh."
