Former TechTV Shows and Staff Dropped

Posted by Zonk on from the i-remember-when-it-was-zdtv dept.

Thanks to nikkisaindon for the heads up about some goings on over at G4TechTV. Apparently, Unscrewed with Martin Sargent has been cancelled, and according to Alex Albrecht's blog most of The Screen Savers staff has been let go as well (including Yoshi).

    G4 shows are unbelieveably bad. The even started putting sports in the start of TSS. Lucky they dropped that this week.

    I knew G4 was going to fuck over the shows from TechTV. 3 of my favorite shows are gone, and now they kick Yoshi and Martin! (No more girls gone web?!)

    Main reason I got a Tivo was for Techlive and TSS, techlive is gone, TSS is having issues. WTF is with this Webcam giveaway? You only have 40 minutes for tech news, give up the prizes, its not a damn game show.

    I shouldnt expect a good tv show to last anymore, seems some new president or owner comes along and starts cutting shows, since they know whats best...

    I pay extra each month for G4/TechTV, that might change...

    Also G4 is deleteing threads on its forums, so dont bother posting about how they suck.
