MTV's newest cartoon, "Spy Groove" (9:30 tonight), poses the pop-culture question: Does Generation Y need its own Bond spoof? Does the world need another spy show, period? This bubblegum-colored series offers one up anyway. Our heroes are the ultra-generic Agent No. 1 and Agent No. 2 (their actual names). This week their job is to save Miami from imminent doom. But like nearly every animated show these days, "Spy Groove" is less story line than pop-culture mural. There are tributes to Charlie's Angels, the "Batman" TV series and director John Waters (he's the obvious inspiration for tonight's villain). This thing has the shelf life of strawberries - jokes about Ricky Martin and Steven Seagal, for starters - which means five years from now we'll still be watching reruns of "Daria" and "Beavis and Butt-Head," but not this. @ART CAPTION:Kickin' a groove with Agent No. 1 (left) and Agent No. 2. @ART:Photo (color) >>>
