G4 TV New Host Announced ....Candace Baily????WTF??

**CrzyChinook** · 12-07-2010, 09:01

For all us Gamer's and Geeks who are out here on this forum that watched Tech TV(old school) and went to G4 and have stayed ....for XPlay and Attack of the Show(which AFN shows both here in the Stan!!).... after a abnormally long absent Olivia Munn they finally announced the new permanent host for 2011 of AOTS and it is.....Candace Bailey.....I has on team Haislip....Alison Haislip has way more geek creds but after all the rotating host they have had on.. Candace Bailey is clearly second place runner up...even though she only was on 5-6 times she clearly got a head lead on the other host with here geek/gamer knowledge....
I think Alison was a shoe in since she been there since 08 and can talk the talk and walk the walk!! IDK what happen maybe she just didnt want it or something..i sure hope shes not leaving!!!
so how bout what does any one else think?

oh and if u need use this EASY guide
One of four titles used to classify someone based on their technical and social skills. The titles are:
Normie
Geek/Gamer
Nerd
Dork

The difference between the four titles can be easily shown in
1) Normie : Technical.... no...... Social.....yes
2) Geek/Gamer : Technical .....yes..... Social ....yes
3) Nerd : Technical ....yes.... Social....no
4) Dork : Technical ....no.... Social...no......... hope this helps modeled after the K.I.S.S. philosophy

yeah i heard that was happening i was glad my wife signed us up for Dish and not Direct when we move from L.A.(lower Alabama) to Oxford...

She looks good enough, maybe she's just willing to do the stuff that Olivia was....french maid sliding in to cool whip?

I don't see where she's got the geek cred though, unless it's well hidden.

I'm more annoyed that Olivia Munn is leaving. WTF, daily show?

I'm upset with Direct when i went home during Thanksgiving Leave and was goin to watch G4TV and low and behold no G4. I was like WTF, lol. But grats to Candace but i would have wanted Allison to get it. She is much better but like Spyder said maybe Candace just is willing to do stuff Allison wasnt goin to do. *Naughty Thought*

I wish Direct TV hadn't dropped G-4. My guess is the channel days are numbered. Direct TV was the biggest carrier of the channel.

I get G4 on uVerse.

However, I hear the channel may be in the process of phasing out. The only 2 good shows on the are AOTS and XPLAY. They may need to add some more content to justify their bottom line to Comcast.

I hadn't heard that. But it doesn't surprise me. It's hard to run a network on 2 shows (AOTS & XPLAY)

They also reply a lot of stuff (Yay Ninja Warrior!), but they have never really had anything else going on and have still been around for awhile. I hope they don't go away, I watch AOTS a lot.

i have seen Olivia on the Daily Show on comedy central a few times, I guess she moved over though. It is sad, she was really funny on AOTS and not at all on the daily show.

) viewer base

I was staying at the Hard Rock for the Comic-Con and ran into Morgan Webb and Olivia on the Elevator. I straight out ask Olivia if she was going to be on AOTS once her contract ran out. She didn't come right out and say she was leaving. But she did say it would be hard for her to do movies and T.V. shows at the same time. She has a T.V. series coming out next summer. So she basically implied she wasn't going to be coming back because it would conflict with better paying jobs. And she would like to move on.

So I can't blame her. She was awesome on AOTS, But she's really talented (funny, smart, nice, geeky, and hot). Anyone in her place would move on also.

IMHO - Candice is hawt. I would do all up-and-down-crazy-nasty-dirty-old-man stuff to her on any day.

And this would probably be why she was chosen

And who can actually get mad at Olivia Munn for going on to bigger and better paying things? I just hope she's able to maintain her dedication to her fans. She's awesome for that.
