Rayjays Thoughts

What is the future of G4 (Warning this is mostly an assumption And G4 Does not endorse these comments)

Fri, 02 Sep 2005 00:44:43 GMT

ok after reading alot of what is going on in Canada and from what i have seen thats going on On G4tv in the USA. i feel i need to say what i think the future of G4 will be. heres the stuff i found first Kevin rose Joins C4H as a Permanet Guest C4H comes to the U.S.A. then Andy Walker Quits C4H. then according to andy walker Gadgets and Gizmos gets canned. so heres my thoughts on what i think is going on.

Comcast Wants to Sync G4 USA with G4 Canada.

Comcast fires Charles hershorn And hires a Former ZDTV Exec in his Place Update: this prediction has come True a refranced here and here.

Comcast and The former ZDTV Exec Cans some G4 shows and Retools some.

Shows Canned:

Cheat
Whip set ( Formula D Street Fury and fastlane)
Arena

Shows Retooled:

filter ( to be less dorky)
G4tv.com (gets a studio audience an becomes a daily live show)
Cinamatech (to be merged with EYEDROPS)
AOTS (Gets a studio audience and more phone calls)

Shows not touched:

X-Play
Call for Help (still be with leo and made in canada)
Electric Playground
Judgment Day

All the host's Except Big C will keep there Job's and Scot ruben will come back to host Pulse with Kristen Holt. Pulse will be like Tech live but with more gaming news.

Shows like T.s.s. and Portal May return do to Fan Demand And the network will have less repeats.

The new G4tv will be 50% tech and 50% Gaming.

Note this an assumption to whats up and its not the truth.

1 Buck Movie review: Herbie Full Loaded

Sun, 28 Aug 2005 17:51:36 GMT

Herbie Fully Loaded Stars Lindsay Lohan (Mean Girls, Confessions of a teenage Drama Queen) Michael Keaton (Batman, Much ado about nothing) Matt Dillon (Theres Something About Mary, Wild Things) And Breckin Meyer (Garfeild the Movie, Clueless)

Review: We all Grew up on the Herbie Franchise From When Dean Jones Bought him in the love Bug to when Herbie went to montie carlo. It's Been ten or twenty years since Herbie got his GoodYear Tires back on the Silver Screen. Now Disney Has Brought him Back With A Bang. in Herbie Fully loaded Lindsay Lohan Plays as Maggie Payton a Daughter of a family of race car Drivers. Her Father (Keaton) has been very protective of her Since she wrecked her Car while Street Racing. Maggie Just out of Collage is not sure what she wants to do with her life. Her Father Takes her to a Junkyard were she finds Herbie the Star of the show. when she Get in the car it comes to life and drags her into the world that her father doesn't want her to be in. This movie is real good The actors know what they are working with and they don't hash the movie up. Even Matt Dillon Who plays the movies Villan Knows his Herbie. The thing i find interesting about this movie is that They Changed Lindsay lohan's personality in this movie. She's not like she was in her other movie Which mainly Targeted Little and Tween Girl's.
This Movie is for everyone From People my age (24) to The Little Boys and Girl's that just love to see Herbie. This Movie May Get More older guys to like her and This movie shows she's not a Hilary Duff Clone. You will also notice Breckin Meyer (Of Garfeild fame) In this movie who i have to say does an awsome job with what he is given and i have to say he knows his Herbie too. I give this Movie A Green light (Totally cool Car Movie) Because it has herbie. Rated G (Which means everyone can go) If you want a second oppinion: Eric D snider C+ ZBONEMAN.COM B-

official word from leo Call For Help Appears In the Us On G4TV @ 11AM ET/8AM PT.

Sun, 21 Aug 2005 00:38:14 GMT

Leo finally has broke his silence Call for Help is Coming to G4TV USA And it will premere in a Morning time slot on the Channel.

http://media.putfile.com/Leo_Announce

http://thisweekintech.com/node/3920

Leo Laporte From His radio show: "Will be competing with opera"

he said that some people at g4 like the show and some people "cough"Charleshirshorn"Cough" Hate it. i think there is a feud going on At G4 myself You can see this in shows aready on the network (IE Filter and Attack of the show) One part of the network wants to be a Techy Geeky nerd channel while the other part wants to be a MTVish Gamer lifestyle channel (Refrences to that side Incude Gphoria And the whip set) and from what ive heard thats been going on even before the G4/Tech TV Merge. It was one of the resons Scott Ruben left and went back to internet based game journalism.

What We should Do to Help Keep Call for help on Air And put it in a New Time Slot ( Ill Propose this in the next EP of Attack Of the forums):

1: If You Can watch the Show Watch it. Set the show as a fav on your onscreen guide and try your Best to watch the Show.

2: TIVO/Record it. (This apply's To people with DVD Recorders And VCR'S Also).

3: If there is anyone in the US That can PUT it on a BiTTorrent server put it on for others to watch.

4: If you have to wait till the weekend to watch it watch it on the Weekend.

I LEAVE you with some reaction to this from Diffrent places on the web.

G4 have conceded, I think they owe an apology to all of those who got banned around the CFH and TSS diputes at G4 forums.

Leo "Who's my bitch?"
G4 woof woof. -boniebon (Digg)

viva la tivo - Slidenby (Digg)

Why G4 want to air Nerd Nation, Robot Wars and CFH. dont you remember they dropped it while ago, and they are losing people, and then decide to get back three of them to regain the lost viewers.

Plus most of TTV user want to see Leo and Patrick back on CFH but that not gonna happens cuz you guys already ruined it.

And Plus MissFae and anyone of you shouldn't banned Chappy for that, he a hardcore TTV, he believe in TTV and hoping Tech Support will keep staying up but you guys change the name and cannot accept the facts that g4 is losing people. Should think of that before buying TTV. -Darkest Dream (The G4 Forums)

G4 has finally come to their senses! - Ripper01234 (The twit Blog)

Digg Stories About this:

Leo announces time slot and info about C4h in the US

Call For Help Back in the US on G4.

G4tv USA May or May not air C4h (Clues to both postitions).

Tue, 16 Aug 2005 23:05:00 GMT

Leo made a statement in his Blog saying there is good news about C4H comming soon. well in the leoville town square The rumor is it's About call for help comming to the US. the extended rumors are That G4 has desided to air Call for Help in the us and E! has gotten the world distrubution rights for C4h.
the other Rumor is that Rogers is removing a ties with G4 and making G4techtv Canada an iptv based tech network.

But to read between the lines of all these rumors lets look at some clues.

In the last episode of twit leo said that he will be waring cooler hawiian shirts on c4h when it comes to the U.S.

so that tells us he is comming to the US but how is he coming to the us.

Clues leading to G4 broadcast and E! Distrubution:
Sevral times after C4H Came to Canada Leo said Me and Rogers are trying to get G4 to Show it in the st on G4TV U.S.

After the revamps Debra Green was out And Laura Civiello (A former Tech TV/ZDTV Exec) was in.

Even though T.S.S. changed its name to AOTS they still talked about tech.

Filter changed from a Video game only show to a technology show

Leo said in a post in the Leoville town square. That G4 wanted to look at some Tapes of C4H.

Lots of call for help fan's emailed G4 to tell them to put C4H on the US Airwaves (Including me)

A suggestions forum was made in the site stuff forum where the admins were going to tell the Heads of G4 what we wou;ld like to see changed. at least half the forum posts (Including Mine ) Said Bring back C4H.

Today is the ! Year Anniversery and G4 is scrapping the Tech support forums very quickly.

Clues Leading to net Distrubution.

Leo says at the Tech tv Meet up Up Yours G4.Link to site that mentions this.

To me this must mean that C4H is coming to G4 here in the states if anyone has a clue contrary to what i found post a comment.

My podcast is up and running.

1 Buck Movie Review: The Pacifier

Mon, 27 Jun 2005 00:13:45 GMT

The Pacifier Stars: Vin Diesel (Fast and the furious,XXX) Brittany Snow (T.V.' s American Dreams) Faith Ford (T.V.'s Hope in Faith) Brad Garrett (T.V.'s Everybody Loves Raymond)
Lauren Graham (T.V.'s Gilmore Girl's) And a small special apperece by Tate Donovan (Love Potion #9,
The Voice of Hurculies in Disney's animated feature by the same name)

My Review: The Pacifier is the type of movie you would not expect Vin Diesel to Be in. But Because this is disney they brought him on board. The movie is about A navy seal (Diesel) Who needs to protect a device invented by a scientist (Donovan) that if put in the wrong hands can Hurt national security. well when the navy seal tries to protect the scientest the scientist gets killed. So the navy seal Has to protect the scientests family when the scientest's widow (Ford) Trys to help the goverment Find the Chip that the scientest made. This movie had its cool parts and cheesy ones to. Vin diesel does an awsome Job in this movie trying to keep the disney feel while kicking some Butt. Brittany Snow looks totally diffrent than her character on T.V.'s American Dreams and it shows in her additude throughout the movie (AS a Guy i have to say i was smitten). Mostly what i was mainly looking at was the chemestry between Vin and the Kids in the movie Espeically thru the sirrous stuff that had the most quality in this movie. Vin Dellivered. the most interesting part of the movie i think is when Diesels Character and The kids vice Princapal (Garrett) Duke it out. and the other stuff i have to say worked too. The comedy worked, the action worked and finally the relation ship between Diesels character And the school princapal (Graham) Worked too. i have to say even though this movie had mostly tv actors in it the movie is real good. I Give this movie a Green Light (Must See).
Rated: PG For Violence and Childish Crude Humor.
if you want a second oppinon : Eric D Snider: D- ZBONEMAN>COM:D+

The last day of Kevin Rose Being on G4. (now more readable)

Sat, 28 May 2005 10:13:01 GMT

Well all the forums (G4tv, Scopetech, and G4 Rewind) Are all buzzing about kevins last day. well i thought id put my thoughts into a blog! The first time i saw Kevin Rose was when he was co hosting w/ one of my fav Tech tv host's that did not move with G4 Patrick Norton on a show called The screen Savers! During that time i was unsure about what i wanted to get to (Work for a gaming Company as a developer Because i liked video games or Take Computer Courses) Well during that time it was like pat was the father figure of his co workers (Kevin, Dan, Sarah And Yoshi) i felt comfortable with all of them including Pat because i saw his cool Gaming rig he built.

Well a few Month's later Comcast Made the Anouncement that they were going to Buy Tech Tv (or as the tech fan's called it the ultamate decappitation) Well by this time i started being a fan of Kevin i feel like he could be my best freind in High school or collage! well at this time i decided to get into Computers! Because of Kevin i Became a Fan of firefox and other things tech wise! I heard Tech tv was going to merge with G4 and i held my breathe to see if at least Kevin was going to do the famous migration to LA! then on his blog he said he wasgoing to move to LA! well at the same time i moved to another town also! Well I Found out about Kevin and sarah Being Boyfreind and Girlfreind and sarah has the same face as the girl i loved and still love to this day (FYI She Dumped Me) i felt like if i did not have a chance Kevin would have a Chance with sarah which i still think Kevin and sarah should get married there the perfect couple. back on subject i watched kevin thru the G4 years of TSS With the coolest Co Host Next to Pat Alex! well we all know about the massive layoffs even G4 lost People (Patrick Clark and Amanda Mackay I miss You) Well kevin and sarah stayed on the show as hosts! Well TSS Changed formats and People got mad Even Kevin Rose was mad if you remember The famous flip offs on the Moblogs of both Kevin and alex!

This was not a happy time for rose he was backed off on TSS and the host's got replaced Kevin Pereira (Who all the tech Fan's thought was a Stupid Host) And Chi Lan LEU (A lady from fresh Gear That sucked at hosting live shows g4's excuse was she had no glasses on to read the prompters) move on chi lan got fired and they put the kevin's together on the show (They were together once before on Kevin P's old Show Pulse Thay talked about video cards for Doom 3 at that moment you could see the future) Now Moving on The Screen Savers Changed it's name to Attack of the show The Kevin's till hosting and all the segment's kept (The fact that the show was named The screen savers bothered everyone including pereira) And to the suprize of everyone the show skyrocketed Even Leo has said on twit he loves watching AOTS! well move on to Kevin's last Day at G4 From what i saw on the show i affected everyone even Kevin P At one Moment in the show Pereira Said"Im really going to Miss you buddy." and he was going to actually breakdown at that moment i was about to cry to it really got to me it felt like i would if i lost a close friend! well it was a sad day for me to watch i got even sader when sarah started crying!

I thought id give kevin something for leaving My TV and Heading to my Computer! First im going to Let him put AD Space on My Blog For Free Both ad's for the broken and Systm Can Be Put on My blog (if you want to give me HTML or anything for the sites Email Me At rayjay1999@gmail.com ). 2. im going to watch both shows everytime they get released! 3 as another way to support your endever im going to buy both T'S For the Broken and Systm to wear to school to show the world that Kevin Rose helped me make a Decision with my life! thats my three gift's to you Kevin!!!!!!!!!!!

Confusion causes problems!

Wed, 25 May 2005 12:58:05 GMT

Well after a little bit of thinking ive realized im a dunder head! I think a lot of it has to do with confusion about the Merge! People can't seem to know what to think about it i felt at the begining that after merge Watching G4 was betraying leo because of that famous blog entry he made after he came back from Washington D.C. for the TSS Special! i wanted G4 on my TV And i was mad that i never got it! well i was hoping after merge for Kevin Rose Would Go to LA With G4 Well he Did! I tryed my best to watch with the addtion of alex but oddly enough it was back lash from the tech fan's that Killed TSS not G4. People Could Not move on! So with G4 looking at #'s they canned People! At about this time i was slowly getting confused wondering if i should still like the channel or Be like the Backlashers and protest it (I Accualy got banned sevral times for it) . well after a while i was unsure about G4 Then i became unsure about leo i did not know who to Beleave! With in all the Banning and confusion i even Changed my g4 forums name from rayjay2380- g4rayjay99 just thinking that it would make G4 Happy because i was confused! well i read blogs all bashing G4 i didnot like it so i wanted to start my own blog! i went to blogger and started one well with this blog i felt that i needed to defend G4 and my main target Leo Laporte (i know he did nothing but like ive said before i was confused) well after a while it had calmed down and surprisingly tech fan's got hooked on AOTS (and from what i heard leo did to) well then kevin told everyone i quit G4 and that confusion hit again i don't know why but i still felt un comfertable with everything again so i desided to get pushy on the leoville and scopetech forum's i was pissed it was so bad i even commited boardacide! well i played a little everquest to calm myself down ! and while i played it i watched AOTS! i had a hard time watching and playing everquest but i got the point! well i sat down after one game of EQ and look at some stuff well i got an email back from C4hFan that told me what did leo do to you? i was still mad at leo and said that i would appolgize! well i made an apology letter tro leo all the former techemployees and to G4 and to some tech fans! to any tech tv fan who visits my blog imsorry for offending you. do you peopl forgive me?
