Link?

Candace Bailey is 29, so she was 23 when Jericho started. Not that she looks it. Hell, Sara Underwood is 27 and she looks barely out of her teens.

Has Chris Hardwick (the Ryan Seacrest of the tech/nerd world) left AotS/G4? They have someone else doing the gadget review segments now. Are they still running new episodes of Web Soup?

Man, I haven't watched AOTS in several months. I'd probably catch it every now and then if Verizon FIOS carried G4 in HD.

Seems like Hardwick is becoming a go-to guy for nerdom/fandom. In addition to his Nerdist podcast, he's the host of the Talking Dead talk show that airs after The Walking Dead, and he does some work for BBC America promoting Doctor Who and other shows.

But more importantly, anyone got any more good pics of Sara Underwood?

The guy that does the gadget reviews is one of Chris's co-hosts on the Nerdist podcast.

The new girl that does The Feed is extremely annoying.

Is Sara coming back? I think this is the second week she seems to be gone.

I still haven't figured out if Hardwick is gone for good.

They've even had another guy doing the DVDuesday segments, but I think that Chris Gore has been back on since then.

Sara posted on twitter that she's back at AOTS today. She was on vacation in Cabo last week. Here's a pic:

To answer my own question, Chris Hardwick was on AotS today, but as a guest and not a cast member. He said that he has left AotS and won't be doing anymore Web Soup on G4. It seems he is spending his time on a Nerdist channel for Youtube. He did say at the end, that he would be coming back to AotS in about 4 months but I'm pretty sure he was joking.

Some news from Pereira:
http://www.g4tv.com/thefeed/blog/pos...k-of-the-show/

After more than a decade on the air, host Kevin Pereira is leaving G4TV's Attack of the Show. Attack will celebrate Pereira’s contribution to G4 with a month-long look back at his most memorable comedy sketches, interviews, and hilarious off-the-cuff moments from the show. The Pereira-palooza will culminate on May 31, his final day on AOTS, before Pereira delivers his final live, on-location coverage for the gaming world's biggest event, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), from June 4-7. In other words: Kevin’s going out large.

“For the last ten years, G4 has provided me a phenomenal career filled with countless once-in-a-lifetime opportunities and the chance to work with some of the most driven, talented and passionate people in the business,” said Pereira. “I want to thank our viewers for allowing me to inform and entertain them each and every week.”

Pereira started at G4 in 2002 as a lowly production assistant, but leveled-up to co-host of Attack of the Show! by 2006. Along with AOTS, Kevin was a staple of G4's extensive live coverage from the world’s largest nerd-gatherings, including E3 CES and Comic-Con as well as countless trips to exotic locations all over the world for various pop culture related events and happenings.

Pereira says he plans to continue creating television shows, interactive applications and live experiences. “I plan to turn my attention to full-time with my production company Super Creative and live touring nerd-carnival leetUP," Pereira said.

There’s only a limited amount of Pereira to go around, so you really should check out Attack of the Show! between now and May 31. It's on every weekday at 7PM ET. And don’t dare miss our E3 2012 coverage.

Interesting. Not that I follow G4 shows anymore, but the network is taking a big hit loosing two of (if not its two biggest) personalities in Kevin and Adam Sessler in the span of a few weeks.

Noonan 05-08-12 03:15 PM

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread
 
Damn, Sessler is leaving too? Any specific reason? I've been out of the loop ever since getting DirecTV.

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread
 
wow, huge announcement. I haven't watched since DirecTV dropped them years (?) ago, but I couldn't imagine an AotS surviving without him.

fujishig 05-08-12 03:45 PM

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread
 
Yeah, what's the scoop on Sessler? Who do they have left from the TechTV days, Morgan Webb and that's it (or is she gone too... after directv dropped the channel I haven't exactly sought it out)?

He IS Attack of the Show - him leaving the show is like Stephen Colbert leaving Colbert Report. He's good enough where he'll find success wherever he goes. I think G4 is done for, or rather, Done4!

Agreed.

and just as I was warming up to Candace.

What's the demographic for this show? I think I'm pretty close to it - I'm 32, a software engineer, into gadgets and a reasonable amount of "nerdy" pop culture. But I really, really don't like AotS at all. I find the whole tone of the show and everyone on it extremely obnoxious and I just don't get it.


I guess it's possible my disdain is just some form of veiled self-loathing.

Patman 05-08-12 04:44 PM

I was thinking about dropping Comcast cable after this TV season ended in May, and this news might make it palatable to kick Comcast cable to the curb, and rely on streaming feeds and OTA.

Setzer 05-08-12 05:08 PM

Re: Attack of the Show appreciation thread
 
Unbelievable. Sessler and now Pereira. If I'm not mistaken, those were the last two guys remaining from the TechTV days. Sad to see those guys go. I switched from DirecTV to Dish last October just so I could watch AOTS and X-Play again and now this happens. It will be interesting to see if the network can survive.


-EDIT-

Ooops forgot about Morgan Webb. She came over from TechTV too.

I feel the same way. I used to like a some of the old TechTV shows (Screen Savers). But never really warmed to AOTS. It always struck me as just another Gadget/video game show trying very hard to be funny but rarely succeeding, with a host as smug as the day is long. I'll watch for a minute or two when I see Underwood in a hot outfit while channel surfing. But other than that,meh.
