[G4] Kevin Pereira Leaving Attack 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.

Well I said I would stop watching G4 if Kevin left when Adam left. It seems that was sooner then I thought.

Well, I'm officially done watching G4. The last show I was watching was AOTS cause I always loved it, and Kevin ran it basically. I guess this is it. I'll still watch their E3 coverage this year though, but thats it.

Damn, I would much rather have Candace Bailey leave. She annoys the hell out of me. A few days ago that other woman was on there, and I though they had replaced Candace. Sadly, I was mistaken.


Any idea why he is leaving? ahh he wants to pursue his own businesses/endeavours. which probably means contractual problems.

PS:
<3's to Sarah Underwood.

Now they'll get some other dumb model who has zero clue about technology to host the show so they can try and get more 15 year olds to watch. G4 sucks.

G4 will go on a rapid decline. Is it the definitive ending of the channel? Doubtful, but they will suffer from their loss. All due to contract inconsistencies and the failure to ultimately reach a resolution.

G4 has been on a steady decline for a while now.

That show is bad and you should feel bad for ever enjoying it.
