MTV Classic brand in Poland closed in 2005 and replaced with a Polish version of VH1 because the MTV Classic brand had low brand awareness and possible language difficulties, for the first time worldwide, the name MTV was used for the channel—which broadcast past music videos and documentaries about music stars. It also aired old MTV shows such as Beavis and Butt-head.
