G4 here doesn't have anime. The reason for that is because originally the channel came here as TechTV Canada, and their license didn't mention anime. Therefore they have to black it out and replace it with other programming.

Channels are pretty much the same aside from the anime thing and the fact that Call For Help still airs in Canada.

I'm pretty sure that a single company already owned both channels, and decided to merge them because of low ratings.

That's where you're wrong.

It was no "merger" at all, obviously. How long did the "G4TechTV" banner last? Maybe a month? It's just G4 now, Tech TV is gone.

Possible reasons to watch the show: Hal Sparks and Seanbaby.

And maybe that, I guess.

Seriously, though. G4 ate TechTV. Then, after they shit it out, they shit ON it. All that remains is X-Play. AOTS does not count.

X-Play is the only reason to watch that channel anymore.

Once the old shows started getting worse, then I stopped watching it altogether.

I mean, come on! Screensavers was awesome when they actually HELPED a lot more than they just showed stuff. AOTS just isn't good compared to the Screensavers.

And this show: desparate attempt for ratings that won't exist.

Sorry to say, but gamers would rather play games then watch TV about playing games

Watched about two minutes of it either yesterday or the day before.

I won't make that mistake again.

=D

But yeah, X-Play is the last stand. Adam Sessler almost got fired when TechTV was getting bought out .. that would have been horrible.

I hate how they got rid of the original disembodied voice though, the new ones suck. =\
