I have to admit I used to watch G4TV with out missing a step. I spent weekends watching Portal, racing home from work to watch Filter and Icons for the ins and outs of gaming. Not to mention putting the playstation aside to watch Anime Unleashed in the evenings. Then the merger happened and although I loved Call for Help, robot wars and a few other shows. It was such a disappointment when suddenly. The shows I enjoyed watching were pushed back into the late evenings and weekends til all these shows my father watched on Spike TV are now on G4TV. I'm a woman and don't care for shows directed towards guys, this made me feel left out. There are women who play as much videogames as men. I felt like I was just dumped, it was so aggravating. It reminded me of when MTV stopped playing music videos and all these silly talk shows happen. I'm still a member of G4's online forums but not for long. Even the forums have become irritating with trying to talk to other gamers and being flamed by nongamers.
