Tech TV and G4

[Kaydigi]

How is it going to work out for Dish, will we be losing the new merged channel after the contract is up?

 

[AppliedAggression]

No, that's what Comcast essentially bought, the rights of the spot of TechTV.

These are the TechTV shows that will be kept on:

Anime Unleashed
Body Hits
Eye Drops
Fresh Gear
Future Fighting Machines
Invent This
Nerd Nation
Robot Wars
The Screen Savers
Thunderbirds
Unscrewed
X-Play

The obvious ones missing are TechLive and Call for Help. Check out their merger site at www.G4techtv.com for a list of all G4 and TechTV shows that will be on the new network lauching May 28th.

Wow, Chris, Jessica, Kat, Leo, and Roger are out of jobs??

 

[John W]

Leo is gone? He's the best thing that ever happened to that channel

 

[Peter Parker]

Actually everyone wass fired. But approximately 100 people will be rehired if they are willing to relocate to LA.

Cinematech
Icons
Pulse

are the only good G4 shows.


Will the G4 shows do more than 1 new show a week now?

Well, of course. You know it's simply not possible to have a TV Studio that's not in the same city as the stick-ass that's running the place.
