This used to be the best technology show on television, period. It was on a little channel called
ZDTV, which was bought out first by Paul Allen and renamed TechTV. Last year, TechTV was bought by
G4 and became G4TV. All the best shows like Call For Help, The Screen Savers, Fresh Gear and the
like were remade in G4's image, or cancelled outright. Lots of very talented people were either
fired or quit when the channel moved its headquarters from San Francisco to Los Angeles. Leo
Laporte, the mastermind behind the best shows, was able to move Call For Help to TechTV Canada.
The Screen Savers continued, but was never as good, and was finally renamed Attack of the Show
this week. R.I.P. ScreenSavers. You were the best show on TV.
