G4TV Should Have NEVER Came Back - And Now It's DEAD!

A product of a lost era, G4TV should have never been brought back.

She also admitted that G4TV hosts dont actually write the reviews, they just read them. She dropped that in the middle of the rant very foolishly.

Frosk thought she was such a badass when she was having her little rant. That was the day G4 died

I feel bad for the compleationist. He was so excited to be a part of this and he made good stuff. Glad he still has his channel. I hope everyone lands on their feet.

The Frosk rant ruined it for me. Don’t lay your insecurities and hatred for pretty girls in bikinis at my feet. She should have taken her issues up with the show runners and asked to change the aesthetic, off camera. It’s not the fault of the viewers. And she just pointed out their agenda and lack of professionalism. I’d rather watch a pro like RGT85.

She likely knew that a lot of people were going to respond negatively, and possibly unsubscribe, before she went on her rant. Yet she did it anyway. She essentially told G4's entire audience that her anger and wounded ego were worth more than the livelihoods of her coworkers. She jeopardized other people's jobs and saw nothing wrong with it. Insane.

Frosk's rant wasn't "unhinged." When they relaunched there was a ton of backlash online that they weren't bringing back enough T&A. (As if having Jessica Chabot licking electronics while a Playboy model mispronounces news stories was going to make G4 relevant in 2021.)

"Don't Like it, Don't Watch it" Six words that will ALWAYS destroy a business or a channel.

[TheChromeYourDome]

Agreed. It was legit WAY back in the day and as soon as it was revived it was a flaming pile. You’ve been on these hot takes recently but damn you aren’t wrong.

[jidion]

they literally said "dont watch us if you dont like it" so as a collective, we didnt

[linuxrobotgeek]

There's no reason for G4 now that we have YouTube.

[gonkidd]

Code monkeys, Xplay, Icons, AOS, and E3 coverage was gold G4, but that channel died off when they replaced all the shows with COPS and Ninja Warrior

[LowfatPouncake]

The problem wasn’t G4, it was the gate keeping during the hiring process that ensured only outrageous woke personalities who define their whole self by a cause rather than providing good content.

[chuckd.]

The fact that they had 30 people to lay off in the first place is mind boggling.

[MisterMonsterMan]

Sessler is just as much a part of the problem as Frosk was... she was just the face of it all.

[producerevan]

When G4TV first started, it had killed my favorite channel Tech TV... G4 was always kind of schlocky to be completely honest.

[HaterMcFattyPants]

RGT this is an excellent recap of the what sunk them. I appreciate that you kept it pretty fair and non biased. Love your channel bro, wish ya the best!

[naturalgus]

I for one was super excited when they announced they were coming back. And when they did come back, it almost instantly became my favorite thing to watch. I lived to see it every day until like a few days ago. I hope they clear things up and continue to make content. I don't care who stayed or left. I'll follow them individually.

[phantomevil]

This is what happens when you attack you're fans. Big shock that they became a dumpster fire. They get what they deserve.

[Lucario]

This hurts since Jirard was so proud of being part of G4 and I really think he would make the network so much better than they were back then, but no, him being in the show meant nothing

[ricardobelmont]

G4 even had it's own anime block at the time. The 2000's was a wild west of a time. From many things like the man show, girls gone wild to Bet uncut. Think they even had wired for sex around midnight.

It couldn't survive this time period.
