Since realitly shows are the thing nowdays they should have a new channel or just take off alot of shows on G4 and place gamers and the geeks and the nerds on it talking about games and comics from there houses.
This is so sad. Nice work. I never got to see TechTV on TV but I wish I had. If G4 would just make more shows that are Tech oriented, maybe they would realize that there's a reason X-Play is their highest rated show - It's awesome.
G4 fucking sucks! G4 is a replica of SPIKE's TV with model bitches pretending to be interested with modern technology! They never get 1on1 with an average TECH like they did back then with TECHtv. MY favorite Channel now is CurrentTV but I swear if that network was to ever go down or merge with some stupid ass channel I am getting rid of Cable!
They all went to TWIT and Revison3. This week in Tech site has audio and video podcasts with Leo Laporte running it. Also, revision3 has some goo internet tech shows.
I MISS TechTV!! In Australia we had TechTV for a year on Foxtel Digital (2004) and I used to watch it all the time! The Screen Savers, Call for Help, X-Play, Invent This, etc... It was full of re-runs from 2003 & 2004, but damn it, it was the greatest! My interests of Technology and computers have been diminishing, but I am starting to gain more interest again!
I got rid of ALL TV. No service at all anymore. I got tired of the stations going to garbage. And G4 was the last station to finally have me make up my mind. MTV went to garbage years ago. VH1, Cartoon Network, Spike, FX, TLC, G4TV all garbage. And they just totally did away with Tech TV. So I figured.. You know what? I can stream or rent TV shows from Blockbuster and control what I watch. I hope for TV to get good again.
@texformer Hello, I'm from the future 1 year from today. I'm sure on your time, companies are already greedy. Bad news: they'll get greedier. In the future, ISPs will put a bandwidth cap on the internet, making constant video streaming very difficult for the citizens. It's probably one tactic to force them to keep cable/satellite TV. Another is so they will pay more if they go over the cap. This is a warning from the future: this country is run by greedy corporations. Something must be done.
I wish G4 would put the old shows back on for 1 week and compare the ratings from that week of those shows to the shows they nomaly play, I'm sure more people would watch these shows then what they are showing now
Only thing I do with G4 is record AOTS & it takes me 5 minutes to watch it. Tech TV was THE BEST. Although all the great people from all those shows are on the web it was just so much better seeing them all in one place...TECH TV!
just watch chris pirillo, like many other people of tech tv went on with tech, just google chris pirillo, he has a live show streaming 24/7 from his office.
Chris Pirillo so called web streaming 247 show is a joke. He never stick to a topic no longer then a few minutes. and most of the stuff he does talk about in pointless.
Leo Laporte and the rest of the old TSS crew are doing alot better job then he is.
Tech TV was way better, the people made the difference, just watch some old Tech TV and you'll see what I mean. G4 kept Adam and Morgan, but I think those are the only people they kept. Funny thing is, X-Play is pretty much what inspired the change to G4, away from more "tech-help" stuff to more "tech-cool" stuff. G4 is great in its own right, better than most channels on TV, but the people of Tech TV were the best.
G4 rely dose suck and I am rely sad to see all those great shows gone, the screen savers, call for help, and all the others. I cant stand g4 comcast BRING BACK TECH TV AND THE PEOPLE.
G4 blows ass. Sorry, but its true. Techtv was entertaining AND informative. G4 is mindless slapstick crap that isnt even entertaining (its primary purpose).
You know, if G4 was supposed to be a spinoff of TechTV, and a so-called gaming channel, then why the fuck do they air 'Cops' at night?! Comcast can go fuck themselves!
i fucking hate comcast. they've bought the FSN Bay Area and FSN West channels and turned them into CSNBA and CSNCA respectably and started fucking with shit related to that.
I almost forgot that they ruined TechTV as well. Probably the only good channel i've ever had on TV ever.
Television has not been the same without TechTV. It helped spark my I.T. career interest. Lately I've turned to The Science Channel, as it's the closest I've found to TechTV. Be nice if they hired the TechTV hosts
Sad Rely No TechTV Because of G4. O When will that business go under. No real info,tech and entertainment with this crapy G4. Will never watch this channel again until TechTV is back
I sure miss Tech TV... TSS, The Screen Savers... Those were the days. Good solid tech shows that actually had hosts (Leo, Pat, Chris, Kat) that you could enjoy watching unlike now with Attack Of The SHIT! Fuck you G4!
I was the guy who actually made this when i was in my late teens, it was back when i had my own website. I just got the clips from torrents. I first posted it on Leos site forums and he actually replied saying he teared up. Was awesome, this was just before he started the show in toronto.
LePorte is on MacBreak now Chris has his own website, perhaps they should reunite on the net and get there own youtube channel, heck, we'd have a fun time until they get back on the air.
I guess Tech TV was a little too new tech wave for most. So G4 stepped in and diluted all the tech with games and really no tech information for any applications. Morgan Webb looks like a model now! and thats about all that really improved for G4. They better not get rid of Adam Sessler, he's one of the original members, he was on when it was called Zid Tv instead of Tech Tv!
It's a shame. TechTV was really very cool. But it seems most stations these days have lost their original intent. Look at VH1 which started out as a very cool alternative to MTV but now is nothing more than a trash TV channel.G4 is the same.
FUCK YOU G4. Anime isnt tech! I hate your face.
