Well G4Tech TV finally ruined my favorite technology show, The Screen Savers. TechTV was bought by G4 network last year, and there had been many changes since then. But last month they unexpectedly sacked most of the hosts. Their replacements pretty much suck, but that is not the worst part. They got rid of the studio audience! I had been planning to go see the show live since they moved from San Francisco to Los Angeles. The show seems empty without the cheering crowds, and the new hosts are neither funny nor knowledgeable about computers. The two only two cast members that were kept, Kevin and Sarah, are worth watching, but I can't believe they fired Yoshi and Dan.
Not a lot of people watch The Screen Savers, but those who do tend to be technically savvy - the type who hack computers. These are not people who you want to annoy, and annoyed they are. The Screen Savers web site was taken down by a so-called denial-of-service attack, and their on-line forums are full of comments by ex-viewers expressing how much they hate the new show. Time to find a new show to watch.

I even had dates to give you for January to go see a taping. Maybe they'll switch back.
