Commcast = Morrons

So I returned from Fredericton yesterday, and what did I find, A COMPLETE overhall of TSS, cancelling of unscrewed, and most of my favourite personalities FIRED. How bout that for sucky. Commcast, or more specifically G4TechTV decided that they did not like the way the network was going, so they proceded to fire the majority of the former TechTV staff, as well as some of the new staff (alex, Im sorry man, that just sucks!). The official stance is that TSS will continue after a restructuring period, but that is total bull considering what some of the staff told me. As a result, today, I canceled TechTV on my satelite. The only unfortunite thing is that I now miss Leo's Canada Call for help, but hopefully I can pick up a TIVO stream of that from somewhere. Everyone knew going it that it was never going to be the same as the glory days, but I never thought it would end like this. Norton, you got out at a good time man.

So In Short:
Kevin & Sarah - Still there, but not for long it looks like
Alex, Yoshi, Dan ... - All gone
Unscrewed & company - Also Gone
X-play - Still around, no shock there, but I dont get the channel any more so whatever.

I urge anyone who cares to write to commcast and inform them of how unhappy you are with what they have done. It wont change anything now, but at least we can make a point.
