G4 to keep on Trek-king
Game-centric cable network will soon be airing reruns of celebrated sci-fi series Star Trek

In an attempt to further up its geek quotient, the game-centric G4 cable channel is aiming to acquire the rights to the Star Trek television series and its spin-offs. According to the Hollywood Reporter, Comcast, G4's owner, is in final negotiations with Paramount Domestic Television, the unit of Viacom that owns the license. The trade also said that the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation will begin airing on G4 on January 8, 2006, with the original Star Trek series beginning in the second quarter.

Here comes another blast of negativity..

I can't stand G4. Stop trying to make gaming culture cool. Gaming culture is inherently geeky/nerdy, and all the MTV style posturing and hiring of attractive television personalities will never change that.

Even X-Play has gone downhill since TechTV was bought out.

And their lineup is so weak.. why do they have to pad their programming with "street culture" shows? I know many of your average GTA-gamer finds "whip set" style content to their liking, but many other gamers could care less.

The only show I can stand to watch on G4 these days is Icons. Everything else is just a waste of time.

G4 Sucks.
In California I never had the channel because we never subscribed to it or what have you so I'd hear of this G4 Gamer Channel and I was hyped up about it because I figured sooner or later I'd be able to check it out. I finally got a chance to watch G4 when I moved into my Dorm....oh how I was let down.

It's like watching that phone commercial with the posers break dancing, only it's a whole network of it. At first I thought "oh it must be a joke segment" but as I kept watching I realized that the only joke was how G4 managed to acquire TechTV.
