She was fired. They've been having that hot asian chick that used to be on Fresh Gear instead.

Marty has never been better, Unscrewed reached a point where all of us essentially lost free speech, the show had it’s balls cut off and in essence the lawyers became television producers, web videos weren’t allowed to be shown because the lawyer’s said they were tasteless, legally we could show them, but when the lawyers say no, that is that… and the words that we couldn’t say on the show were absolutely ridiculous, when Sadie Allison, author of “Tickle His Pickle”, was on Unscrewed, the legal department forbid us to say the words ‘fellatio’ and ‘penis’, it’s medical terminology folks, it’s not gonna scar anyone… for one episode we couldn’t even say the word condom, which is absolutely mind numbing for those watching the show on any satellite service since trojan commercials can be seen during our space…

Well my friends – TSS has evolved once again. This coming Monday the 29th, you’ll see a brand new cast take the helm. We’ve had a lot of talented hosts as part of the TSS family, and now we have two new additions: Kevin Pereira, and Chi-Lan Lieu.

After the most recent changes to the show, I was given a choice - either host the new show, or create content. I decided to go back to what I love most, and that’s creating content. Now that I’m freed up from my hosting duties, I’ll spend my free time working on DarkTips and other great tech segments – which I’m very excited about. Expect to see me (and my partner in crime Sarah Lane) on every show, doing what we do best.

I’m off to Vegas – everyone have a great Thanksgiving, and see you on Monday!

Ya remind us every chance you get that you are fucking eachother.

I will miss Kevin as the host though. As long as it isn't all about videogames or how to put an LED in your mouse it shouldn't be too bad.

While Kevin was always best at being a second banana, so that's fine. So it all rests on the new hosts.

Heck, I see Trojan commercials on other shows like "Filter" too-as early as 7 or 8 in the evening.

Who is Chi-Lan Lieu?

Goodbye Screen Savers. Saves me an hour a day.

I think they made two bad hires. I have never liked Lieu and Pereira has been bad on both the previous shows he has been on (Arena and Pulse).

Looks like I will be saving some time also. The show should now be named The Time Savers. Due to everyone turning off the channel and going outside for an hour. Well maybe not out side.

I was informed by my cable company that G4TechTV would be moving to a different package, and that I would no longer have access to that channel (without subscribing to the other package, of course).

A year ago that would have been pretty bad news, but today I really don't give a shit.

Right after G4 and TechTV merged, my cable company did the same thing, putting it on another "tier" that I wasn't subscribed to (with little to no warning besides having my TIVO tape a blank screen one day). A year ago, I would've maybe made the move to the higher tier, but Leo was already gone, and Patrick was on his way out. Luckily, because of this I never got to experience the "new" Screensavers...

Only watched it a few times but that squeaky voice was hugely annoying. It was like they just pulled her out of 9th grade and put her on-air. Felt very Cable-In-the Classroom. She should have been wearing braces to complete the effect.

Well, unlike the rest of you, this means I'm probably going to start watching TSS regularly. I love Immy and maybe on TSS he'll finally have the freedom to be hilarious again.

Well, I'll be watching tonight. I haven't watched regularly since August or so, but this will probably be like a train wreck.
