Hahahaha I love how that title on G4.com has the word "Bogus" on it. Excellent timing!

To say that G4 failed would imply that at one point, they were successful

Sure... making it a part of the E! network won't change G4 at all... in fact, it'll be better, guys!

Don't they know how nerdy their viewers are? My geek friends who watch G4 would refuse to watch simply because it had anything to do with the E! network.

I used to like it when it first came out, maybe just for the novelty of it. They only had about seven shows and Starcade and pretty much nothing but reruns, but it was still a pretty entertaining channel for whatever reason. You'd keep flipping back to see if there was another one on, it kept you interested.

With new stuff like The Whip Set, Man Show, Cheaters, Fastlane, stuff that doesn't belong, the channel has just almost become a joke.

Some of the old shows really were pretty good. Starcade was always good for a laugh and I really liked Filter. I never saw the point of Cheat! though.

I like X-Play, which comes on too often, and Cinematech, which isn't on enough.

The rest is pure crap.

What the hell did they expect? Running shows that didn't garner significant ratings the first time around will not garner ratings the second time around. Geez, did anyone even watch the Jamie Kennedy Experiment when it was originally on? Or Fastlane for that matter?

i assume by 'this generation', he is referring to people too young to understand the concepts of television or language.

Come on guys even I dont' like G4 :rolleyes

They only have liek 9 shows on anyway

X-play, Attack of the Show, Call for Help, Reviews on the run, Electric playground, Cheat, cinematech, beat the geeks reruns, and then Icons (wich was recently split into 2 seperate filler shows)

Seriously they should sell "Call for Help" and X-Play to other networks and kill the channel. X-play's only redeeming quality is the "Splinter Cell Co-Op theater" shorts.

I wanted nothing to do with G4 until I was flipping channels and caught Arrested Development on it. >:

If the channel is about video games then this must have been a fluke. >:
