VH1 Classic just played four consecutive videos that feature lame dialogue-based preambles to the songs: Van Halen's "Hot for Teacher," Twisted Sister's "I Wanna Rock," Poison's "Fallen Angel," and Huey Lewis & the News' "Power of Love." "Fallen Angel" is by far the worst offender:

(Family sits at a dinner table, eating)
Son: Great meal, mom!
(Mom nods)
Daughter: (poking at her food) Dad, I need to talk to you.
Dad: Sure, honey.
Daughter: I've decided to move.
Dad: (takes another bite of food) Move? Where?
Daughter: California
(Dad looks like he's about to have a heart attack)

I miss the 80s so much!
