Attack of the Show and X-Play Cancelled by G4

G4 is freakin terrible, I miss TechTV.

Well, it wouldn't take too much work for her to become a stripper. Not even a downgrade from being an AOTS host really, more of a sidegrade.

Speaking of AOTS, anyone else ever think Kevin Pereira looks kind of like Justin Timberlake?

And last but not least, this is the first news I've heard of Adam Sessler not being on X-Play. This is a sad day for me.

And last but not least, this is the first news I've heard of Adam Sessler not being on X-Play. This is a sad day for me.

He left earlier this year. Apparently the decision to have him leave was not amicable. I wish he and Morgan Webb the best of luck in finding something to do by the end of the year. I don't care about that Blaire fool. As far as I'm concerned, he's the physical embodiment of what made that show start to suck. He can go jump off a bridge, for all I care.

G4 probably started up in the wrong time. Nowadays if it were full blown gaming television it'd probably be a success, but they don't have the balls to do it anymore. I imagine TechTV would still be going strong if the idiot owner/producers or whatever didn't dump all that money into some space program, if those rumors were ever true.

I loved Screensavors and so naturally, I pretty much have always hated Attack of the Show. I'll get my internet humor when I'm on the internet. X-Play was great most of the time, I was watching it back when Adam was trapped in some small tiny room and it was just him and less comedy, good times. But in the end this news isn't surprising at all. Good riddance really, the channel completely sucks balls and deserves to be dropped honestly. Hard to feel sad when it's been crap for years now. The cool people left on it can probably start up some site online and have a little success there like TechTV did and others.

G4 is and has always been a useless waste of television broadcasting potential. I have hated G4 ever since they bought TechTV and systematically ran it into the ground: Taking X-play and Kevin Rose, and leaving everyone/everything else that they uprooted and moved to LA to whither and die.
G4 is one of the single worst things to ever happen to televeision, and the fact that they stay in business despite doing nothing but suck is infuriating.
G4 is kind of like the Mitt Romney of television: They've made some of the most horrible, alienating decisions possible, and I don't understand how they're not worse for the ware.

Sorry, I'm still not over what they did to TechTV....
Honestly, I'm a bit surprised that Adam and Morgan stayed with G4 for as long as they did. I kind of lost a lot of respect for them after seeing them still hosting X-play once Kevin Rose left. Adam's still a pretty funny dude, though. Anyone know if he's up to anything now?

I am ashamed to admit that I got into Sasuke for a while by way of Ninja Warriors on G4.

I remember when it was ZDTV. And I remember when Extended Play was "GameSpot TV." Sessler was in this room playing arcade games and just talked about the games and reviewed them. When it changed to Extended Play, Kate Botello was co-host. WTF? That was the beginning of the downfall. Then when Morgan Webb came in it changed to XPLAY and they had that ridiculous announcer, and they had Adam Sessler act like an ADD retard. That's when I stopped watching.

I do think Webb is still pretty hot though, even with her chin.

I don't get the love for Sessler and Morgan. I've always found them annoying. Maybe it's because I wasn't familiar with either of them before they were co hosting XPlay. It really boggles my mind to hear people say Morgan Webb is hot. I'd rank her a 6 or 7. They've had more attractive hosts on that very same channel

[indecks]

Yeah thats the thing with Sessler. On XPlay, he ended up being an ASS the whole time. Like he had too much sugar.

When he was on GameSpot TV, or even the first edition of Extended Play with Kate Botello, he was very calm and reserved. There weren't any sketches, or jokes, etc. He literally just hosted the show calmly and cool.

Webb has a great body. She's _pretty_, but not beautiful. She just has a great body. She's a terrible actress and can't review games for shit, but still.

The one I don't see the big huff with is Olivia Munn. Shes cute, sure. But shes not amazingly hot.

[Gamerforlife]

That's the weird thing I don't see the pretty with Webb. To me, Kristen Holt is pretty. Morgan has this wicked witch of the west face

Olivia Munn isn't the most beautiful woman I've ever seen, but I find her more attractive than Morgan Webb.

Different strokes for different folks. Shame I never saw Adam Sessler in anything before they made him annoying. One thing I like about the dude is that he's a big Sly Cooper fan
