the “G” stands for garbage

Slashdot | G4 Drops TechTV Name

No longer a channel I’d sit and watch with my family each evening. I’m assuming gamers are happy?

speaking of, given this and my previous “gaming” post you may think i hate games. in fact, i really like playing games (slightly upset i didn’t get the Gameboy Advance i was pining for recently :). i’m not a “gamer” by any stretch of the imagination, however (obviously :)

i guess i just cannot figure out who their intended demographic is, with all day gaming shows?

i loved having a tech channel that my *wife* enjoyed, and found informative, entertaining and sometimes helpful.

when it degenerated into a 14 year old male friendly channel, they lost us, and i’m sure many others.

i knew it was the beginning of the end way back when megan left.

    that sucks…. i used to love TechTV when it first came on the air… Call for Help & the Screensavers were my joints… I can’t even watch the Screensavers anymore cuz it’s so corny & not a lot of tech talk… i’m highly disappointed. what are computer geeks to do?!

    the people that bought tech tv are IDIOTS!!!

    Okay not really but we used to watch 2-3 hours of techtv in the evening, we both enjoyed it, and it was interesting….I’m always about learning new things, and NOW? now we never ever turn it on…..the ALWAYS interesting Screen Savers isn’t even turned on for more than about 10 minutes at a time now…..they lost all the interesting people starting with megan!
