X-Play and AotS canceled?

There goes the only two reasons anyone ever watches G4 anymore. Reruns of Cops and Ninja Warrior are only entertaining for so long.

I'd add a poll for how long you all think G4 will last now considering it was already headed downhill as far as I could tell, but I can't on the app.

I mean, I only watched those shows once in a while anyway since we don't have the channel at the house, but still. Now I'll never have a reason to touch the channel.

I don't particularly understand why certain outlets are reporting this as if it's entirely new, it's been known for a few months now that G4 was going to cancel those shows because of the channel relaunch they're adamant about.

It's stupid either way though but I stopped caring about G4 years ago when they started adopting shows that had absolutely nothing to do with the channel demographic; guess I just wanted it to be more like TechTV.

Ah, I wasn't aware this had been likely for a while. I fell out of the loop during boot camp and never got back into it as far as TV networks and stuff go.

G4 died to me when they cancelled Icons. I used to love that show. The personal pride I felt when they aired the Gran Turismo episode was immense. Filter was a cool show too. But I still liked XPlay. Adam and Morgan are both great personalities. Even though I haven't really watched the show in a few years. I will still miss it when it's gone.

Tech TV was the best.

The blonde guy on X-Play drives me up the wall. Good riddance.

Oh, don't be mean to Tom.







The writing may have been on the wall, but it's nice to know that G4 is fully committed to irrelevance rather than just assuming they are.

I wasn't being mean, I was talking about the article reporting they're being cancelled, not him reporting that they're being cancelled.

And yeah, again, I stopped watching once they started showing shows like Cops. It's like what Cartoon Network is starting to become by showing live action stuff; completely bastardizes the name "Cartoon Network".
