Looks like G4 is starting to wise up. After killing off almost all the old TechTV shows and firing everybody who used to work on those shows, they’re now bringing Call for Help back on the air, with a lot of the old TechTV gang in tow. So that makes what now? Only two good shows worth watching on G4? X Play and Call for Help?
Anyway, so what’s up with Attack of the Show these days? I haven’t watched any of the new episodes since Kevin Rose left. Is Sarah still on the show? I’m pretty sure they’ve broken up since then. Isn’t Kevin dating Amber now? That’s what i heard. I love behind the scenes drama/gossip.
kevin is dating chobot, at least that’s what i’ve heard

Bring back some other people who I don’t know because I didn’t watch TechTV, just like I didn’t watch G4, just like I don’t watch the combo channel.
I lose at this game.

okay so wait, what does jessica chobot have to do with techtv and it’s old hosts again?
exactly.
and the last chobot post is still on the front page and i do recall chobot bashing going on in that post if i do say so myself.
not my fault people can’t stay on topic in the comments. jessica chobot has nothing to do with techtv. it’s you people who are so hung up about her as to bring her into every discussion! tsk tsk.
there’s a special time and place for specific chobot related posts and this just so happens to not be one of them.

Sara is still on the show and is actually looking like the hotness now. I think she did break up with Kevin but who the hell is amber.
While AOTS does suck bslls compared to TSS the show is somewhat watchable if you come in with low expectations. For any EGM readers or gamers the one and only sean Baby hosted the show for two weeks and it was pretty good.
Glad to see CFH coming back but I wish cat would come back with it.
Who the fuck is amber?
#10 | Comment by Knocturnal — August 27, 2005 @ 9:49 pm
after kevin left, he started going up to canada to appear on call for help i think. amber is one of the co hosts on that show. theres a picture of her on the call for help site. she’s cute. cuter than sarah even??
oh and i FUCKING HATE seanbaby. are his EGM articles supposed to be funny? because they’re not.
#11 | Comment by Justin — August 27, 2005 @ 10:09 pm
Sarah is still in Attack Of The Shows. Hopefully, Chobot will do some appearances in Call For Help.
Btw, I think Sarah is getting it on with the other Kevin.

Actually Chobot could fill-in for Cat. She has a lot of knowledge to share and she’s as hot as Cat.

aha! so they are together.
chi-lan lieu has a blog too.
a lot of people seemed to hate her when she was hosting aots with the faggier kevin
looks like she doing good after leaving G4 though.
#21 | Comment by Justin — August 28, 2005 @ 1:51 am
chi-lan lieu was awful! I miss TSS so much 🙁
at least we have TWIT but they never have girls on there! WTF.
#22 | Comment by lunatiko — August 28, 2005 @ 1:55 am
so wait, is sarah seeing kevin p now?? somebody said that in the comments to that amber and kevin pic.
of course kiko said the same thing but who the hell listens to somebody who actually likes jessica chobot anyway.
#23 | Comment by Justin — August 28, 2005 @ 2:08 am
Attack of the Show is a pale comparison to The Screen Savers, but still is worth watching (At least for me in between comercial breaks for Anderson Cooper 360 over on CNN)
Kevin has become less of an annoyance from back in the Arena and Pulse days.
My biggest resentment with AOTS is the lack of tech news and more of a focus on games and the like. But g4 is “TV 4 gamers” so I guess I cant hold it against them.
But, who will be on Call for Help? Im assuming it wont be Leo, but rather the so called King of the Internet whose name I forget. He used to work on C4H back in the Tech days, so hes an obvious choice. As would Kevin Rose or Dan (Kevin´s bitch) Oh, and they should bring back Cat Schwartz… my penis misses her….
BTW, Kevins doing podcasts with Alex, the other co-host after Pat Norton left. Good stuff…
#24 | Comment by Zahid — August 28, 2005 @ 2:36 am
nah the call for help shows that’ll be back on g4 are the same ones that’re airing in canada. no changes. it’s still gonna be shot in canada with leo and everyone else, with guest appearances by some of the old techtv people too.
what i hate about g4 is how they keep bringing in non gamers to host their videogame related shows. fucking diane mizota and that kristin holt chick. like anybody believes they actually play games. eat shit. all they do is just read off the teleprompter. morgan webb, tina wood and that other chick are okay though. but they should get rid of those other chobots.
#25 | Comment by Justin — August 28, 2005 @ 2:49 am
I bet they are together because Kevin seems really flustered lately and that has to be because he keeps flying back and forth between Canada and San Francisco. Visiting Amber Mac and then making all those podcasts and shows.

[of course kiko said the same thing but who the hell listens to somebody who actually likes jessica chobot anyway.]
I demand some respect.
*shakes fist*
Chobot knows more about videogames than Morgan Webb, Tina Wood and Laura Foy (I think that’s the other chick’s name) combined.
FACT!
#27 | Comment by kiko — August 28, 2005 @ 3:02 am
Amber and Kevin were pretty close during the whole meet up so they must be a couple.

Leo Laporte Is the new Lord of the Internets.
Sorry Justin.
He just looks smarter cause of his man-boobs. O_o

G4 needs to die. What’s the point of bringing CFH back if the network is still run by guys who couldn’t get jobs at MTV.
Fuck you G4 and all you attempt to stand for. TV for gamers my balls. TV for people who can’t find SpikeTV more like.
What’s the difference between Fastlane reruns on CourtTV and Fastlane reruns on G4?
The people running CourtTV can probably switch on a computer without a manual.

amber >>> sarah
although sarah still looks good packaged in tight jeans.
