It's official:

http://www.g4tv.com/techtvmerger/

As long as they keep the Screensavors, X-Play, and Anime Unleashed from Tech TV...

This will truly kick ass.

This is the first I've heard of G4. Can you please tell me who they are as I do not have the time to find out?

anyways, I've never been much of a TechTV watcher except to see what anime they air. I can give TechTV thanks for showing me there was more of my favorite anime series when I thought there wasn't anymore

They've said they are keeping Screen Savers, X-Play, and Anime Unleashed, so you're happy now, I guess. I'm kinda melancholy, though... I don't know why I am, I just am. It's the end of an era. Or something.

G4's a gaming network. Comcast started it, so that kind of explains why they don't have much market penetration.

The main reason I watch TechTV is for X-Play. I sometimes watch TSS and Robot Wars. But X-Play is the best! The hosts are funny and make the show have humor, espesially when Morgan hits Adam with various objects.

G4 and TechTV merging? That would be cool! TechTV didn't have that many shows and still show reruns of stuff except TSS and X-Play. Besides, most technology is video games, right?

I like the screen savers, x-play, and unscrewed. But I've never heard of G4... are they going to combine to make one chanel or just combine to one company?

EDIT: Very sorry, I really should have read the article before I asked questions

Yeah most shows on G4 aren't that great, and X-Play on Tech TV could just make up for it. But I think this will be a cool thing. Tech TV has some good shows and some bad shows, while G4 does also. Combined, they fit like a perfect puzzle.

I checked G4's site... there's potential there. If they have more resources and can come up with some interesting documentaries/series...

We have TechTV Canada on satellite. Dunno how it will be affected - it's basically TechTV *MINUS* Anime Unleashed. Their CRTC license doesn't cover animation. (To their credit, they REALLY tried to get the stuff on TV, but no dice.)
