I hate cable companies.

I like clocks.

Why?
Many reasons.

One of the few decent channels on TV, and it's most likely going to be ripped to shreds and abandoned. Though, it's been on a slow decline since Leo's departure...
True, some people may be re-hired for the new G4/TechTV combo-network, but the damage is done.

Combine that with the lame, steaming pile that has become Scifi, and you get SpikeTV, Comedy Central, and Discovery (since TLC has become the home redecorating channel, apparently).
TechTv has been the only channel I've watched on Network for a long, long time.

[quote]G4 & TechTV will be upgrading to form one network that will take digital entertainment to the next level.
G4techTV will be the one and only network that is plugged into every dimension of games, gear, gadgets & gigabytes.
We’ve got a great new game plan featuring the best elements from both channels. Most of your favorite shows will be crossing over when we join forces on “G-Day”: May 28th.

We’ll keep you posted on all the latest developments, including our combined programming lineup, new original series, specials or any other last minute details we’re planning in order to create the perfect blend of both channels.
In the meantime, score more of what’s in store for you. During each network’s ongoing broadcasts, we’ll be running sneak previews showcasing the best & brightest programming of both G4 and TechTV.

[B]what makes it worse is that, over the last few years, all I actually liked about TV has been sucked up and destroyed by those running it. Among those subjugated was Speedvision, this little quality channel on the corner of the lineup. It would play a wide variety of the best racing to be found all over the world (read: NOT just NASCAR). so, of course, once I become addicted to it (it was among the four other channels I watched, TLC, Discovery, Comedy Central, Scifi, with TechTV only available at school and thus disqualified), FOX buys it and "upgrades" it to American standards. What have we got now? four to ten hours of NASCAR programming every day. It took ages for them to get the BTCC, ETCC, and DTM races that I once enjoyed, but now, they are so poorly edited and run (Commercial interruptions right smack dab in the middle of something important).

And some people wonder why I hate Rupert Murdoch...
Yeah, it really sucks when cable channels start "catering to the masses (or the lowest common denominator)" like that, especially when there's already two or three other channels that show the same thing (not to mention broadcast channels).
