G4 sucks and this is why

I had a long blog about how I hate TV and blah blah blah, but decided against publishing it… or saving it.

My reasoning being that I simply hate TV commercials… moreover I just hate commercials in general. They are truely dumb anyone watching down to a basic primitive state.

Case and point: G4. Fucking morons on that station, save Adam Sessler (and X-Play). My reasoning:

Attack Of The Show!:
A show that is supposed to appeal to the nerds of the world who actually have the channel (it’s not on basic cable where I’m from). As I have known for a long time, this show does nothing to inform me on anything new. The only advantages of said show are for interviews with Tech-celebs, Comic-Con coverage and for E3 coverage. That’s all. Fuck this show in it’s face. Just because you throw a former nerd turned metrosexual and a girl who is mildly attractive who both talk about news that is a day-and-a-half does not mean that I want to watch. If you’re going to promote a TV show about tech news, I would like some fucking tech news. I don’t want cheap cleavage and inside jokes at your fucking studio. I would much prefer to have this show only available for E3 and Comic-Con, that way all the bull shit that normally comes along with it.

On top of this bull shit called Attack Of The Show!, I have seen promotions for a new show called Hurl! and can you fucking guess what that’s about? You got it! Hurling. Vomiting. Throwing-up. How completely moronic are studio-heads that think that anyone, not just nerds but any living soul on earth, would want to watch an entire reality show about nothing but vomiting? Please, someone take a hammer and bash those who made this show possible in the head/knee/chest.

One more save from this station: Code Monkeys. This is probably the best show on G4 TV right now given that it has nothing to do with technology. I love the comedy of the show and the clever jokes on 1980s celebrities, pop-culture, and video games. I would LOVE to see a show like this moved to [adult swim] rather than have it weighed down by all the other horrendous shit on G4.

I am like all the other nerds I know out there who wish that G4 would move back to fucking TechTV and actually show GOOD TELEVISION again. I mean, honestly, who the hell watches G4 TV and is completely satisfied with a majority of their original programming (not Ninja Warrior–because that shit is awesome–or any other syndicated series).

Please, someone defend this channel for me and give me a view onto the other side of this spectrum.
