    What happened to G4TechTV

    I recently got my Digital cable back (prob only for a month depending on spending and what-not) So I deside to go to G4TechTV... Granted they naver had very good programming to start with but WTF.

    First- Cheaters, Somone took the name and made a show about cheating on wives.

    Second- The Man Show, Technology? No. Video Games? No. WTF...

    Third- Star Trek TNG, Granted I ADORE Star Trek to teh limit but now it's almost all Star Trek. Spike has me covered thank you.

    I never agreed with thier programming anyhow but this is getting rediculous... Wheres my Robot Wars !?!?!?!

    I may switch back to regular pretty soon though...

    G4 has always been pretty crappy. it doesn't represent real gamers, and the people they pick to host their shows reflect that.

      I'm lucky that in Canada I don't need to worry about accidently watching G4TechTV.

        Well G4 is what happened to TechTV. TechTV was pretty good before G4 bought it and decided to turn it into G4. After that it has just turned into to crap. I mean yeah TechTV was still pretty cheesy but at least it was informative, and watchable. And then there is the whole barbed wire biscuit, basically trying to be a raunchier adult swim type show, but failing. Basically G4 is full of poser nerd/geeks, a wierd thing to want to imitate. XPlay is pretty much the only surviving show from TechTV (as the whole cast of screensavers changed basically), and even that lost some of its edge.

          Cheaters and Cheat are two different things. Cheaters as a show has been around for years. It's still around. It's always been a syndicated show, so you can probably catch the new episodes at odd hours on local non-network TV. Some of it can be funny, like the episode the host got knifed in the stomach, or when he got arrested.

          Cheat is kind of still around. It's in the videogame block which is now only from 4-6pm.

          G4 publicly announced that they were moving away from all videogame to a general men's interest channel about 6 months ago.

            Because that's what we need, more channels that appeal to men. There just aren't enough.

              I was reading earlier (VONNEGUT LOL) when the sound of some horrible gnome caterwauling suddenly reaches my ears. I try to ignore it as best I can and keep reading but something in my brain snaps and I invoke the irritation Popeye feels when Bluto's done too much: I've had all I can stands, I CAN'T STANDS NO MORE!!!!

              SO I run into the next room, find the TV on, and WHADDYA KNOW it's Adam Sessler and his giant gnome head! If only he could grow a beard it might actually counter the fantastic weight of his freakish skull. Seriously, he would scare James ****ing Van Der Beek and his skull was photographed by Voyager 1. I think that was in the news yesterday, in fact. Here's a picture of him trying to dock with DS9.



              Anyway, Adam Sessler is about to say "3 out of 5" or something similar THAT WILL MAKE ME WANT TO RUN OUT AND BUY THE GAME AND RUN THROUGH AIRPORTS MAKING LIFE DECISIONS but luckily I rammed my wang so hard into the TV it shattered (the TV, not my doodle, because it is huge like Van Der Beek huge) into seven Chaos emeralds - just the right amount - and I was super-powered enough to fly to Canada/L.A./New York/Abu Dhabi/wherever they film and punch Morgan Webb so hard that her cat-like visage warped into something only coked-up retard 15-year-olds could fantasize to.

              Y'know, G4TechTV's target audience LOLZZZZZZZZZZ

              Yeah, I hate that show.

                That was the stupidest move they made, I LIKED G4 about a year ago or so, when it was still mostly gaming tv, with some other stuff on the side. I liked when they added STTNG, but then it all went downhill from there.

                i mean seriously, DOES ANYONE EVEN LIKE THE MAN SHOW??????????????????????

                    Overly.



                    But I also like Adam Sesslar, Kevin Peralta ( or whatever his last name is ) and Morgan Webb.

                        Actually, I thought when it was TechTV, that it was a piece of ****. When G4 came along, things started to get interesting for me (I only cared about the game related stuff.) I even liked X-Play... didn't take long for the whole channel to revert back to ****. Now G4 is to games as MTV is to music.

                            Yup, I knew, as soon as I get digital cable, my favorite channels would begin to suck.

                            So now you see, why I only watch MythBusters or Conan O'Brien.

                            G4 sucks. I want to kick Kristen Holt in the balls.

                              About the only things I like is Icons (now "Gamemakers"), X-Play, and Cinematech. The rest is garbage.
