confirmed: the new "screen savers" sucks

Permalink: 1/01/2005 09:52:00 PM | << Back Home

A few days ago I blogged about how the new TSS (The Screen Savers) on G4TechTV is a disaster. (if you have no idea what I'm talking about, click-here to read my original post) HOWEVER... thank you, dan huard, for exposing all of the bullshit that's been going on. (he did the live call production, etc.) he also mentioned some of the scandals going on behind the scenes, such as the fake live calls he was instructed to produce. I've linked to his blog post at the bottom of this one.

see, what I love about his post is that he also expressed the fact that Chi-Lan Lieu (one of the new hosts) is an absolute moron. The show's completely ruined... I can't believe they were actually FAKING the live calls!! Yet, that's so G4... watch them cancel the show now due to lack of popularity..

Seriously, what was the point of the G4/TechTV merger... all G4 did was take all of the TechTV programming out of production and expect all of TechTV's viewers to watch their gamer-targeted crap. Now I have G4's old channel number and TechTV's channel number displaying the same crap. Everyone's completely pissed, including me!

I have to admit, I still TiVo the show and quick-skip through it in-case they have something cool on (kevin rose is still producing some segments, as far as I know, so there's bound to be SOMETHING interesting) but other than that the show, and the network (for that matter), completely suck and I really don't think that they're going to make it.
