The Message Boards and Website
You guys do know that the message boards and the website are completely seperate? People who use the forum usually do not like the TV show! They should be seperated. And Off-Topic should be seperated, because they are really their own special group.
Discontinued shows
I added discontinued shows that were previously on G4tv, but have been cancelled. Shows that never made it to G4 weren't added, they can stay on the TechTV page. Good, yes?
Errgh...
Sorry to allow it to happen, but a friend who barrowed my laptop, used my account to vandalize the logo here.
Sorry.
Anime Unleashed is gone
Therefore it is irrelavant to have the CRTC comment on any G4 related Wiki pages. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grahambrunk (talk • contribs)
Similarites to Spike?
Should it be mentioned that it's similar to Spike? I mean take a look at the shows.
See, Spike is absolutely intended for male viewers and just look at the shows. Totally Outrageous Behavior (which is basically the same as World's Amazing Videos and Most Amazing Cop Videos), The Man Show, and I'm pretty sure it's the only other channel that runs reruns of Star Trek: The Next Generation besides Spike.
- Just for the record,BBC America also shows ST:TNG Karinagw (talk) 01:27, 13 April 2013 (UTC)
Bring back the show list
I liked the shows list :)
article locked, can someone add this
There is an incomplete list of the launch shows for G4 in 2002 in the article. The full list of all 13 shows is: Arena, Blister, Cheat!, Cinematech, Filter, Game On, G4tv.com, Icons, Judgment Day, Players, Portal, Pulse and Sweat
Esquire Channel Lineup
- Jimmy Fallon reruns - reruns of "party down" - Failed Starz programming - "How I rock it" - An MTV style show on the personal style of male celebrities with Baron Davis. Six Episode commitment - “Risky Listing,” - Another generic real estate agent show with the hook being that its about bars and clubs. Six Episode commitment - "Knife Fight" - Another cooking competition show with an obviously tiny budget. - "The Getaway" - Anthony Bourdain produced celebrity travel show. Ten hour commitment.
No identity for the network. Apparently a tiny launch budget. And a curious tendancy to stay among the "family" for the programming. This isn't much more than the old G4 budget redirected into really generic programming.
My guess is that the channel is going to become a dumping ground for the programming of the networks in its "group" if it doesn't get sold first. 70.234.245.226 (talk) 10:52, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
Just reading this lineup is making me depressed. G4 was never amazing, but it was still the best place to get news on Consumer Electronics that wasn't internet-based (the one thing Spike doesn't have). I really see no target audience in the lineup; let alone "For Metrosexuals". It seems to be more "throw it at the wall and see what sticks", except the wall is covered in oil slick. Goodnight, sweet prince. Smortypi (talk) 04:12, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- This is probably not the best place to discuss opinions about the channel, but to discuss ways to improve the article. :/ Please see WP:FORUM Cyphoidbomb (talk) 07:09, 29 March 2013 (UTC)
- The intent was/is placeholder information/discussion related to the esquire channel which would presumably eventually go into the new article on the channel when it is created. 174.46.28.58 (talk) 18:50, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
Newly added: Psych, Burn Notice, Parks and Recreation. More reruns.
Jimmy Fallon will be done on a one-week delay which is really weird.
American Field Trip (Six Episodes): An upscale version of what Larry the Cable Guy does on the history channel with odd travel to see America.
Ninja Warrior will continue to be a core offering of the network. They will now launch the Network around a new season of American Ninja Warrior this summer with no promotional budget (already spent), no media attention at the worst possible time of the year with no carry-over viewers at all. 70.234.237.246 (talk) 00:52, 21 April 2013 (UTC)
The Infobox and the {{Start date}} template
Since there seems to be an ongoing dispute about the usage of the {{Start date}} template in this article, here are specific guidelines about the usage of the {{Start date}} template in infoboxes, with emphasis on articles about television and television channels: Template:Infobox television channel and my request for clarification at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Microformats.
