Nine months ago I said goodbye to some good friends. I saw them every weekday, sometimes on the
holidays. (4/20 is holiday isn’t?) I was
told that they had to go to a nice farm in the country. Ok.
Not Really. I’m talking about G4
being acquired by Esquire and telling Attack of the Show to vamoose. I, along with many, many geeks, was
rightfully upset. I have had nine
months, however, to understand and try to come to terms with this terrible loss
to geekdom. I have now found out that
Esquire, in addition to acquiring the rights to G4’s signal, have acquired an
additional signal. They now have TWO
channels on my TV. One is still called
G4 and is running reruns of COPS CAMPUS PD HEROS LOST AIRWOLF and various
infomercials. The one called ESQUIRE has
a few new programs and has filled the rest of its time with various movies,
reruns and you guessed it, INFOMERCIALS.
For this we gave up our channel of geekdom? Our Nerdtopia? Please someone out there start a fundrazr to
buy back G4 with Kevin and Olivia and Chris.
Chris can run it. I’m sure he
wants his own tv network. Pretty
Please? With a cherry on top?
