Ouchy. Looks like that network is getting a major makeover. What a bummer. I really liked some of their shows. I can\'t say I was an avid viewer, but I did tune in every once and a while.
I wonder what they are going to do to change the network up.
To fire everyone is pretty drastic.
-
Never understood all the love for the show. Any tech talk I get from the net anyway. Heard the women anchors are pretty.
-
Martin and Swish better be trekking their asses to LA as we speak.
If the new channel has G4TV.com, Unscrewed, Filter, Pulse, and X-Play then I don\'t care what else it has.
Never really understood the appeal of those real techie type shows. I personally find no entertainment from watching someone install a printer and according to the ratings not many other people do either.

Agreed.
I just finished watching X play about an hour or so ago (i think 12:30 am? Its 2:30 now). Well that and before that i was watching anime unleashed (Silent Mobius and Gene Shaft).
THere are times when i love tech tv and then there are times where i hate it. Either way, i hope the good shows stay.

Looking at Leo\'s site, it doesn\'t look like they are keeping anybody.
-
Someone post a link?
Keeping ScreenSavers,etc?
What?
You can\'t just post a thread and give no information what so ever . It\'s ignorant.
And X-Play, Unscrewed, Call for Help, Body Hits and Anime unleashed all suck. Only \'The ScreenSavers\' is worth watching and only because of Patrick Norton well and the hot Sarah Lane.
-
Thats nice :p
The ScreenSavers sucks fat arse ;) ZzzZzZz...
-
Tech TV was to mainstrem, meaning they talked allot of BS. Then again if tech TV were a real Tech show it would have failed.

Agree\'d, but the crew on \'The ScreenSavers\' was mostly entertaining.

In a purely non-entertaining way. :D

well since someone closed my thread (I didnt see this one) could they just merge the 2 threads???
I need my fill of Cat, and Jessica, and Morgan!!!!!!!! my post has a link to Leo\'s webpage.
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:
-
Just saw the an ad for the merger and it will begin on may 28th. the link on techTV\'s site doesnt work to see what shows etc.......
Earlier than expected!
:hat:ScottyJ:hat:

One of you mods hate me. I brought up a topic about TechTV being bought out by Comcast and the thread was deleted. It wasn\'t LIC. He doesn\'t care what I post as long as it\'s not praising piracy (he did say I should post more about butt piracy instead ;) ).
-
ScreenSaver and X-Play are my two favs.
-
G4 already has a pretty popular review show(Judgement Day) so I wonder if they\'ll be able to work in X-Play (which I\'m told was the highest rated show on TechTV).
-
Which I don\'t understand. The problem with TechTV is shows like Xplay and Unscrewed... Xplay\'s problem is the fact the hosts are simply annoying and the reviews are anything but informative..Unscrewed has nothing to do with technology and once again, the hosts are complete idiots..

THANK YOU!
I hated that show.
-
Thank casual gamers.

So is Time Warner Cable here in Lincoln perhaps the ONLY Cable station that doesn\'t have either Tech TV or G4? If so...I believe it.
The only ****ing station that absolutley will NOT give us Baseball games on any Fox Sports Net station they put on. I swear, they show the same Best Damn Sports Show Period about 5 times a day for days on end. It\'s awful.
I just have to move to my mom\'s house if I want to get over 130 Royals games, and also if I want to get Tech TV, which I watch sometimes...never really gotten to know any of the shows, though.
Only show I remember would be the show where they give you tips to do stuff with very complicated segments, like how to fix your playstation 2 from killing itself (scratching the disks), etc.
See Yuz.

And it\'s the only show I was hoping to make it, but count me out of Pactrick Norton doesn\'t sign on and move to LA - he makes the show.
With that said, TechTV and G4 all suffer from something called..."lack of decent viewing material".

I actually only said that to piss you off. :D
BTW, Did they even cut any shows? I can\'t think of anything besides "Call for help(?)" that was cut.
-
And thank God \'Call for Help\' is gone.
