Wonder if they're hiring... 
Funny you should say that because G4Tv.Com IS basically a radio show. Its streamed on Fridays as a Radio Show and Aired on Sundays as a TV Show. They are pretty cool, alot better than those other idiots on G4. X-Plays hosts are still way better.
I have comcast digial cable and I got both channels, now i get the same channel on 136 and 294.

We had TechTV on Channel 62 [Basic, about everything above 69 or so is Digital..] and ... well... ... they removed it to put on another fucking spanish channel [normally I wouldn't complain, but there's at LEAST 10 now... all on basic, haha] 
I don`t think we get G4 either... I'll have to check next time I go to my grandma's; they have digital, at least... here we don't even have fucking cable... |

Yeah, back when I had satellite I had TechTV. Now I don't and I really don't care. |

G4 was gaming, TechTV was general technology. We got TechTV via digital cable... I think some places may have it on basic, but I'm betting most have to go digital/DirecTV. |

G4.. TechTV.. are these channels you have to purchase? I get cable. 
I know they're gaming channels, but what goes on them exactly? How do you get away with a gaming channel?  |

I think the way they treated the TechTV staff, from what I read, was pretty disgraceful. (Basically canning the lot and hiring back whoever was willing to move to G4's HQ.)
Dunno what the Canadian version's like... They'd better watch it with the programming because they have a license for certain programs with the CRTC.  |

G4 is definatly corny.....as a whole I thought TechTV was better. But not everyone on G4 is an idiot....the cast of G4TV.Com are pretty funny and they know what they are talking about. Still, the best thing on both channels is still X-Play. That show freakin owns! |

(hangs self)
No wonder the only reason G4's still around is that they bought out TechTV. I saw a couple of G4's shows on the previews, and good LORD do their production values suck. They also treated TechTV's staffers like crap, too. The only good thing I could say about them is that at least the host of Sweat sounds like he kinda knows about sports.
Then again, my opinion might be tainted because they killed the only rerun of the Screen Savers that I can watch. ;P |

G4 and TechTV have finally combined and Im liking the results. For now its both channels fused together with less reruns, but soon they are gonna make new shows and stuff. The best part for me is that I get to watch Video Games and Anime and the same channel..
