Poll question: Gamers and Computer geeks: Do you like G4-TechTv?
I hate G4-TechTv. I liked TechTv, but G4 killed it. And don't get me started on G4's horrible line-up and bad scripting...

So, do you like G4-TechTv?

They got rid of Leo (The Screen Savers/Call for Help) and he owned half the station!

On edit: yes, I know they parade him out every so often, but still...

G4 can go to hell as far as I'm concerned.

9. I miss Call for Help and Leo too
I just never knew how much until now. I use to be a huge Screensavers fan but now I really don't watch it anymore after Leo left. I do watch X-play though.

At first, I didn't really watch Anime Unleashed but I got really into Crest of the Stars after watching a few episodes. On the G4 side of things, I really only watch G4TV.com for the most obvious and superficial of reasons to those who watch the show and know what I'm talking about. Overall, I'm not happy with the merger. They got rid of shows like Big Thinkers which profiled people in different fields like Physics, Future of Computing, etc, and another show I liked which was Spy School.

4. Voted Yes, as I was watching it at the time.
But I agree with you. I really liked Tech-TV, but the modifications of shows/schedules since incorporating G4 has been a big down turn.

7. I like their late night anime show, but that's all I watch
I never had Tech TV so I can't compare.

11. Tech TV was awesome. G4 completely ruined it.
G4 has set gamer culture back at least 20 years with its stupidity. I wrote a really long rant about it, and specifically X-Play, on my LJ a while ago.

I used to watch Tech TV every day. G4 Tech TV I've sat down and watched maybe three times since the merger.
