You honestly can not expect them to put more popular actors in there. They dont know sh*t about technology.

yea. i expected them to put tom cruise on there to host.

come on man. you know thats what i meant.

I mean they put ppl on there to host that dont know how to act on tv, not some flipin tards that act so fruity.

and BTW, the hosts dont know anything anyway. they simply read what they're supposed to read.

Agreed for both.

I used to love TechTV when I didn't get it at home and could only watch it at cooler houses. But then I got it at home and now never watch it. The only channel worse is G4.

Oh, and anime sucks.

Seriously, though, ScreenSavers and Call for Help were all right, but they weren't compelling TV, more like background TV a la what a lot of people do with ESPN.

I have to go further, Neo. 95% of TV sucks anyway.

Um, I'm totally convinced Leo and Patrick are gay together. Also they're entirely too enthusiastic about kilts? You only see grown men that excited about kilts in Ireland and Scotland? Hmm... I'll miss X-Play, also the anime sucked. I hated most of it. Like one show was good, and I forgot what it was called. Stick with Adult Swin. Trigun...

Most of the time I'm just joking. I really mean it this time though... Super gay. They're at least gay seperately. Martin Sargent on the other hand is the incredibly straight slacker/stoner guy who got his own late night show. Whoa!

Lol, Martin is probably gay in all reality and Leo and Patrick are super straight. One time I saw TSS and Leo hit on the anchor lady for tech news, or whatever it's called. Hmmmm...

Then they were all like "Leo, your wife will divorce you!"

I have a very important question.

I get TechTV, but I dont get G4. hmmm. Will I get the channel it's going to be on?

Either way, I'm really going to miss call for help. *cries*
