@@foxhound1147 I'm betting Morgan doesn't return to the reboot and just did this for the one-off, she's in game development now. Adam seems like he may be coming back since Blair is in charge, not sure about Kevin, Olivia, or Kristin.

I remember before X-Play existed, and Morgan Webb was just the nerdy background extra playing quake in the background of The Screen Savers. Then they started giving her a part time quick tips section on the screen savers. She just kept becoming more and more predominant. She went from the girl that you only saw the back of the head, and occasionally turns around to wave..........to becoming arguably THE face of the network.
Fun fact, Unscrewed with Martin Sergeant also survived Tech TV, I imagine G4 wanted to lean on late night TV. The show only lasted 6 months on G4 though. Good memories.
This is actually the hardest thing for me to watch because of how nostalgic it feels. The chemistry never went away despite everyone going down their own path. I would love more of this a reunion just isn't enough
So sad that we went a whole generation of consoles, the rise of twitch and esports, and a Marvel Cinematic Universe without G4. A channel truly ahead of its time and the popularity of nerd culture.
@@ihateallthethings2683 Yeah but G4 had its shows where they covered all things nerd related though. G4 was gamers first but still had its moments of nerd culture as well.

“G4 was about having fun with your friends, playing video games, and most importantly, coming together around things that we all genuinely love!” Beautiful, and I’m not crying, you’re crying!
It was also about taking a better channel and gutting it in a failed attempt to expand their audience. Sad fact is they could’ve made a channel that appealed to both audiences. Instead, they alienated the larger channel and pretty much poisoned the well. The result was G4 lasted a lot longer than it should have.
Once I got over the pain of how terrible both the ppl and the production of the new G4 was, the dumpster fire was actually quite entertaining. If nothing else it gave us an immortalized seal clap.
My parents got satellite tv just a few monhts after ZDTV first came on the air, and I watched it all the time, and continued watching when it became TechTV, and I felt like it lost something real and important when it became G4. But Adam Sessler was always my hero, along with Leo LaPorte,

G4tv got me through my freshman and sophomore year at college in 2006-2008. I was suicidal and lonely. I was also the only person (girl) I knew into games. So I literally had no one. It felt like having a community by watching their shows. I really loved x play and Japan's ninja warrior. Good times.
Feels like coming back from high school, and sitting down for tv all over again. Same energy, same love. Appreciate this, truly. Trip down memory lane.
Same. I was remembering how I'd walk home from high school, smoke some weed with my friends and pick up some pizza on the way home and we'd be just in time for attack of the show, ironically at 4:20 pm
@@GeebusCrust She has had a very busy Hollywood career. She was in the Newsroom on HBO, Office Christmas Party, she was Psylocke in X-Men Apocalypse, The Predator, a Starz show called The Rook. She's been in enough other high profile stuff that she could easily disown her nerdy background.
@@_boof Regardless of quality, it was high profile - just like X-Men Apocalypse. Neither were all that good but they were tent pole studio movies. I don't recall any of the other G4 crew involved with projects like that. Just sayin'.
The way G4 treated Adam Sessler, I'm legit surprised they got him to return, because they did him hella dirty at the end, ESPECIALLY with how he was one of the only reasons people still went to G4.
@marvelous LIE it's kind of weird seeing him back to reviewing now. I feel like he's lost his edge. Acg actually reminds me a lot of the original x play review style, in so far as having specific criteria, and being incisive without being unfair
@marvelous LIE you, me, and everyone else alive. As for sessler though, I don't think it's fair to compare him to Adam Savage in that respect. Adam Savage is so over the top, so exuberant all the time that he inspires either love or hate. I never saw sessler in that light. The things that can be annoying about him stem more from his unnecessary and inaccessible use of "high brow" analogies. It feels like he's lording his intelligence over you in a way that only insecure, or unintelligent people do. Comparing a game to "a tale of two cities" might make you feel smart, but it's a virtual guarantee most of your audience won't get it. Idk. I don't mind him. I just don't find his critical voice valuable anymore when we have more insightful voices in this day and age.
I very specifically remember finding X-Play on Comcast On Demand, they had reviews on there as well as a playthrough of Chinatown from Call of Duty 4, and I just remember going, "Video games on cable!?" It blew my mind as a kid, because I didn't think it'd be possible that adults like the same games I did, so it was awesome to see. I also remember G4 showing off Ninja Warrior and Unbeatable Banzuke! I miss those times.
Same. I remember my earliest X-Play memory being a review of Spider-Man 2 for PS2 and loving how I can watch a channel with people that play games. Og Ninja Warrior and Unbeatable Banzuki were just so entertaining to watch. Nowadays it's not the same, but I'm hoping the revival of G4 captures that magic again of having a channel with all things gaming
I'm surprised to see you here bro. Its good knowing that you were into this. Sometimes I mention G4 to people and they look at me like I'm crazy. lol Zommers, am I right?
@@TheBanisher24 kids today will never understand the magic of a whole tv channel about gaming. Coming home from school to watch X-Play and Attack of the Show was rewarding after a long day
I would absolutely piss myself if they managed to re-release Japanese Ninja Warrior (Sauske) on this channel. Right now, the only way we can see it is from graciously provided uploads from international fans; and nothing is in English.
"ADAM SESSLER and...MORGAN WEBB...!!" I remembered their names the moment I saw them here. Specifically cuz I could suddenly hear the announcer in my head.
Adam sessler was not a real gamer he even admitted it. He started after the job. What a lame person to hire his dad probably was on the Comcast board of directors. He is exactly what’s wrong with this industry...
@@ReturnofBojangles-zt4vo he was honest about it and, OH MY GOD, isn't emotionally invested in bullshitting about games to sell you a product. A perfect person for writing a review
I remember finding G4 when it was TechTV. I was trying to find something interesting on and I stumbled on it. I was hooked from day 1. Adam Sessler was the first I watched.
@@gezeo750 yup. I remember back when both TechTV and G4 existed. Honestly, it seems like they only merged so that G4 could have X-play lol; everything else was pretty much tossed aside. G4 TechTV was alright, but once they dropped the TechTV branding and shows like Attack of the Show became their big program, the station went downhill fast. Last thing I remember liking was Code Monkeys, since at that time, you had X-Play, Attack of the Show, and everything else was either convention or tradeshow coverage and filler.
These guys were some of the best part of my childhood, I was deeply invested in video games, with shows like AOTS, X-Play, Cheat with both host. Some of the best tv I had
Olivia Munn is one of the coolest celebrities I've ever met. I didn't even ask for an autograph and she wrote me a nice letter and signed it. She's a great journalist, host, actress, and seems the most down to earth. If she's reading this I'm sorry I didn't know how to take that picture and thank you for your appreciation. You're a f* O.G
God this put a huge smile on my face. This brings me back to the days of the original Xbox, ps2, and the 360, ps3, and Wii were brand new. Watching xplay, cheat, attack of the show and etc. I wish they they brought back g4. Especially with all the tech now, g4 would be fantastic.
Do you not know about the disastrous G4 revival that didn’t even last a year? He was one of the hosts again and after if failed he essentially denounced video game and gamers entirely. He’s done
Sessler is an effin joke and a hypocrite. it was games and gamers that made him relevant but he spat in the fans faces and just want to cozy up and party with his fellow trash Froskurrin.
She was a huge crush of mine back in the day. Also worth noting that she was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader and even was on American Idol before she started working at G4.
Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb are legends in my book. G4 was SUCH a fun channel from Cinematech to AOTS. I could just leave it on that channel all day and be hooked as to what's going on, even if it was reruns
I can’t lie.. I really teared up when Kevin and Olivia got behind the podium. Their chemistry is still amazing too. This is one of the very best things that happened this year.
@@GranTorino7 I hadn't thought about Adam Sessler in year's but after reading your comment I immediately knew what his Twitter feed was like. I looked it up and my fears were confirmed.
@moon boots on my boots yeah definitely one of those cases where people liked him for his personality and humor and he thought that meant we'd listen to his politics. I know he wants to help things but that kind of stuff changes nothing on only makes the world a less fun place.
X-Play was where I looked for my reviews I loved Adams takes on games, when the show ended we had to revert to IGN and Gamestop with their *Exaggerrated Swagger* of gaming reviews lol
I always wondered if G4 was actually hilarious or if it was just nostalgia. This has proven that this crew are some of the most hilarious people alive.
G4 was the ultimate clash of cultures...everyone got hit or represented. You literally can’t find this humor anywhere anymore either. ABSOLUTELY SHAPED MY BEING when I was younger. Grew up watching zdtv then tech tv with my pops. AOTS gave me my humor. Can’t believe I’m watching this rn. So much love for these people.
I just wanted to state for the record..."Japanese" Ninja warrior (original announcers and subtitles) still exceeds American Ninja Warrior by a huge margin.
I cant's stand watching American Ninja Warrior, it's not the same without the Japanese All-Stars or the commentators shouting in actual Japanese, and the American set it too polished and commercialized
That was a good line. It was made even funnier to me because just a couple weeks ago I just so happened to google her, and thought, "I think I vaguely remember her."
Hearing the names (specifically) Adam Sessler, Kevin Pereira, Olivia Munn, Morgan Webb and Kristin Adams together makes my heart the happiest it has been in years.
Xavier Wood's speech at the end made me tear up. Watching this made me remember how much simpler things felt as a kid/teen. Being an adult in this day and age sucks at times, but this reunion has raised my spirits and put me somewhat at ease about the future. Thank you for this. I needed it.
I had zero intention of watching this in one sitting. I absolutely watched this in one sitting. We need to talk about Xavier Woods' comedic timing and how perfect it is.
The fact that Olivia Munn would come back and do this reunion just creates a ton of goodwill with me. That's not to say that I harbor any ill-will towards her whatsoever, but seeing her acknowledge her roots is something I didn't expect of her. Well done. All of you.
i never really got the impression she was hiding from it, just that there needed to be some time to pass because there was some mixed feelings surrounding her leaving and the end of the network. I think they made fun of it a bit here since now there has been enough time for any hard feelings to go away.
@@Brainhorn fucking drop it. At the end of the day Adam was tired of the toxic gatekeeping thats was prevalent at the time, and is still relevant today. He was one of the few alongside Morgan who championed for better treatment and portrayals of women in gaming, and always got flack for it on forums. Yes, he’s blunt and crass, but those toxic gamers loved it when he was blunt and crass for games they disliked as well. They just hated when they found it he didn’t agree with their ideals.
@@inugami3529 I didn't say anything about any of that. If you want me to go further into it, he's a self hating hypocrite who jumps between the "only good white guy" and the "Jewish minority victim" at the drop of a hat depending on which narrative he's pushing. He's also a cokehead.

G4tv got me through my freshman and sophomore year at college in 2006-2008. I was suicidal and lonely. I was also the only person (girl) I knew into games. So I literally had no one. It felt like having a community by watching their shows. I really loved x play and Japan's ninja warrior. Good times.
I loved x play and attack of the show
@@danielcantu4035 past tense
I have news for you if you're a republican. ..😪
START TWITCH ACCOUNT PERSONALITY DUDE!!!!!
Japans ninja warrior was great!
Feels like coming back from high school, and sitting down for tv all over again. Same energy, same love. Appreciate this, truly. Trip down memory lane.
@oscarisnyrd13 what happened to Adam and the crew? I'd thought they still be in the industry covering games,like a podcast
God I had the HUGEST crush on Morgan Webb growing up
Had? Im still struggling🤣
All the g4 babes😍
Same here
Same
Still do
This network was such a big part of my early high school years. Came home every day to watch attack of the show.
Same. I was remembering how I'd walk home from high school, smoke some weed with my friends and pick up some pizza on the way home and we'd be just in time for attack of the show, ironically at 4:20 pm
Fucking same man.. same. simpler times.
@@cristianromo2441 I did that too. Good times.
Same here.
Yes my guy that was everyone’s way to watch attack of the show
this is so sad in hindsight. rip g4, you'll always have a place in my heart.
Respect to Olivia Munn for not forgetting her roots. G4 was good times.
yeah but not like she is super busy either lol
Yeah I was just wondering wtf she's done since
@@GeebusCrust She has had a very busy Hollywood career. She was in the Newsroom on HBO, Office Christmas Party, she was Psylocke in X-Men Apocalypse, The Predator, a Starz show called The Rook. She's been in enough other high profile stuff that she could easily disown her nerdy background.
@@stuartbagley2586 You throw "The Predator" in there like it was actually good..
@@_boof Regardless of quality, it was high profile - just like X-Men Apocalypse. Neither were all that good but they were tent pole studio movies. I don't recall any of the other G4 crew involved with projects like that. Just sayin'.
Kristine adams: "Remember me?"
Yes, yes i do. Vividly.
Them long legs lol
@@mexicool0486 Hells yeah, and DEM HIPS!
Bring back Sara Underwood!
@Lillian Lillian Why did you steal someone's comment lmfao
"kristin"...
As long as there's no Cops or Cheaters reruns, and they stick to games and geek culture than the G4 relaunch will turn out fine.
But I loved Ninja Warrior. Too bad NBC bought the rights, the American version isn't as good as Sasuke
It would die after two words....Gamer Gate
@@jojen the only Ninja Warrior esque show that needs to be on G4 is MXC
DON'T GET ELIMINATED
I wouldn't mind an anime or two
Yeah that’s true I remember turning to g4 asa teenager and they showed cheaters all day I was so angry 😠 😂 like wtf is this.
Kevin and Olivia’s chemistry is still as good as it was all those years ago.
I thought they were inlove honestly
"The only source for everything you care about" ❤️
Except for olivia MUTT
Why wasn't this recommended to me earlier?! This was awesome!
Man I remember watching X-play and Attack of the show after school, good times!
Those 2 with mxc and my day was made
Good times for real
I remember OG Arena, Filter, Cheat!, Cinematech, my favorite: Judgement Day. Oh the memories!
Solid shows, but don't forget about Code Monkeys (I know it's animation but it's G4 classic)
They coming back sometime in early 2021 lol 😂
The way G4 treated Adam Sessler, I'm legit surprised they got him to return, because they did him hella dirty at the end, ESPECIALLY with how he was one of the only reasons people still went to G4.
It's because g4 as it was is still dead. This is Adam sessler himself sort of rebooting g4.
@marvelous LIE it's kind of weird seeing him back to reviewing now. I feel like he's lost his edge. Acg actually reminds me a lot of the original x play review style, in so far as having specific criteria, and being incisive without being unfair
@marvelous LIE you, me, and everyone else alive. As for sessler though, I don't think it's fair to compare him to Adam Savage in that respect. Adam Savage is so over the top, so exuberant all the time that he inspires either love or hate. I never saw sessler in that light. The things that can be annoying about him stem more from his unnecessary and inaccessible use of "high brow" analogies. It feels like he's lording his intelligence over you in a way that only insecure, or unintelligent people do. Comparing a game to "a tale of two cities" might make you feel smart, but it's a virtual guarantee most of your audience won't get it. Idk. I don't mind him. I just don't find his critical voice valuable anymore when we have more insightful voices in this day and age.
Yeah , because wasn't it bought up by NBC?
They forced him to wear a Virtual Boy for forty minutes
Man I missed Adam. He was truly one of the most honest people in game journalism.
Does he have anxiety or something? I've noticed that he has always behaved sorta awkwardly with movements and facial expressions.
@@kyrolazioko4783 he might be on the autistic spectrum
he posts on twitter a lot
He went fucking insane a few months ago
Didnt he go crazy and start doxxing people over some gamergate stuff
I very specifically remember finding X-Play on Comcast On Demand, they had reviews on there as well as a playthrough of Chinatown from Call of Duty 4, and I just remember going, "Video games on cable!?" It blew my mind as a kid, because I didn't think it'd be possible that adults like the same games I did, so it was awesome to see. I also remember G4 showing off Ninja Warrior and Unbeatable Banzuke! I miss those times.
Same. I remember my earliest X-Play memory being a review of Spider-Man 2 for PS2 and loving how I can watch a channel with people that play games. Og Ninja Warrior and Unbeatable Banzuki were just so entertaining to watch. Nowadays it's not the same, but I'm hoping the revival of G4 captures that magic again of having a channel with all things gaming
I'm surprised to see you here bro. Its good knowing that you were into this. Sometimes I mention G4 to people and they look at me like I'm crazy. lol Zommers, am I right?
@@TheBanisher24 kids today will never understand the magic of a whole tv channel about gaming. Coming home from school to watch X-Play and Attack of the Show was rewarding after a long day
I would absolutely piss myself if they managed to re-release Japanese Ninja Warrior (Sauske) on this channel. Right now, the only way we can see it is from graciously provided uploads from international fans; and nothing is in English.
@@stoheha oh, do I have news for you
I didn’t realize how much I missed Adam & Morgan until THIS MOMENT.
"ADAM SESSLER and...MORGAN WEBB...!!"
I remembered their names the moment I saw them here. Specifically cuz I could suddenly hear the announcer in my head.
😄 I wasn't even playing video games at the and I still watched that show because I liked those 2
Dang last time i saw sessler he was interviewing shinji mikami on the evil within
Adam sessler was not a real gamer he even admitted it. He started after the job. What a lame person to hire his dad probably was on the Comcast board of directors. He is exactly what’s wrong with this industry...
@@ReturnofBojangles-zt4vo he was honest about it and, OH MY GOD, isn't emotionally invested in bullshitting about games to sell you a product. A perfect person for writing a review
I remember finding G4 when it was TechTV. I was trying to find something interesting on and I stumbled on it. I was hooked from day 1. Adam Sessler was the first I watched.
I remember watching all the computer builds and wishing that it would be me when I grow up and have my own money
Duuude me tooo!
Tech tv was rebranded as G4
Yeah...then they merged with G4, then finally just dropped TechTV and most if not all the shows and hosts left. That was a sad transition.
@@gezeo750 yup. I remember back when both TechTV and G4 existed. Honestly, it seems like they only merged so that G4 could have X-play lol; everything else was pretty much tossed aside. G4 TechTV was alright, but once they dropped the TechTV branding and shows like Attack of the Show became their big program, the station went downhill fast. Last thing I remember liking was Code Monkeys, since at that time, you had X-Play, Attack of the Show, and everything else was either convention or tradeshow coverage and filler.
I legit used to watch all their reviews as a kid on OnDemand. Attack of the Show was literally the only talk show I ever watched.
Seeing Kevin and Olivia do around the net brought me to tears I never thought I would ever see that again
I know man. That show brought me so much happiness! So glad it’s coming back.
@@silentcontender i know rigth its super exciting i cant wait
it's like they never left AOTS
Who remembers the leaked nudie photos of Olivia? That was crazy for any G4 fan.
@@ThisisCitrus yo what????????
This has been the heaviest bout of nostalgia I've gotten in sometime. These guys were really ahead of their time. Especially AOTS.😭😭
and around the web!
Hearing the G4 logo sound is even more nostalgic. Shed a good tear hearing that.
AOTS was mad shyeeet smeared on a toilet.
These guys were some of the best part of my childhood, I was deeply invested in video games, with shows like AOTS, X-Play, Cheat with both host. Some of the best tv I had
How does Morgan Webb not age even a minute?
Because she doesn't do drugs.
Oh, you can see lines. But Munn's got pretty much the exact same energy.
@Jim Harbor Adam Sesslar (in-joke) became nerd Ron Perlman
She drains the life essence from a chosen intern every century or so to maintain her youthful appearance.
She just gets taller
Adam looks like he suspects his brother in law of being a drug lord.
THEY'RE MINERALS MARIE!
He looks like his son just told him that watches anime
I thought it was old man Wolverine
Well that would explain where Adam get's his crack.
He hasn't been able to rate any games for years! He's frustrated!
Olivia Munn is one of the coolest celebrities I've ever met. I didn't even ask for an autograph and she wrote me a nice letter and signed it. She's a great journalist, host, actress, and seems the most down to earth. If she's reading this I'm sorry I didn't know how to take that picture and thank you for your appreciation. You're a f* O.G
Morgan and Adam were pivotal and groundbreaking in gaming. G4 at that time were nationally groundbreaking for all cultures of gamers.
Adam hates and hated gamers, you got played.
God this put a huge smile on my face. This brings me back to the days of the original Xbox, ps2, and the 360, ps3, and Wii were brand new. Watching xplay, cheat, attack of the show and etc.
I wish they they brought back g4. Especially with all the tech now, g4 would be fantastic.
I was cheesing the whole time. They still got it all these years later. Great job.
Before watching: Wow, this is 44 min long?
After watching: THIS WAS TOO SHORT!
EXACTLY! How could we have been so FOOLISH!? lol
SAME
Could of been at least 1 hour
Creating "Content" before "content" was "content". Welcome back
Nice
Lol
This was so fun to rewatch. I hope it’s not the last time we see them all together.
It is. Sessler will NEVER come back again for anything video game related, especially not G4
@@samdiego1965 why would sessler never want to come back?
Do you not know about the disastrous G4 revival that didn’t even last a year? He was one of the hosts again and after if failed he essentially denounced video game and gamers entirely. He’s done
Sessler is an effin joke and a hypocrite. it was games and gamers that made him relevant but he spat in the fans faces and just want to cozy up and party with his fellow trash Froskurrin.
Adam was my hero back in the day, always tuned into G4 even when it was tech tv.
I actually HATED when G4 took over TechTV...then I grew to love G4 and hated when it disappeared.
He's a washed up coke head who hates video games and the people who play them.
I really missed G4 when it went away. Nostalgia activated.
I cant wait till we see the G4 "woke" memes...
And HTF...
Well you couldn't miss them id they didn't go away, so it goes without saying you'd miss them .......WHEN THEY WENT AWAY
“Remember me?”
“Once I Googled you!”
This is gold.
I remembered, but only because I loved Cheat. Also used to subscribe to Tips & Tricks
not gonna lie I had to google her. and also remembered her once I did lol. They all look old now and my memory is fading :P
I remembered her because I had a huge crush on her
@@JoshArtisto Same dude
She was a huge crush of mine back in the day. Also worth noting that she was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader and even was on American Idol before she started working at G4.
"Here's what G4 would look like if it was still good. We're not gonna do that, though."
I told myself I'll just pop in for 5 minutes just for the sake of nostalgia. 44 minutes later...
Yeah didn't plan to watch all of this but couldn't help myself.
I fell into this hole as well. I see it all so vividly in my mind again. Good times.
I’m actually doing the same thing. I really thought it was just me lol
Yeah dude. I was pleasantly surprised when they teased the comeback and after getting sucked into watching this whole thing, I absolutely can't wait.
I watched on 2x speed cause I needed this in a 22 min session. One episode of anime.
Holy crap I'm only at the intro and it feels just like being on channel 150 all over again Nostalgic.
191 on Dish, Attack of the Show after school followed by xplay
Holy God. This was the tv channel that made me fall in love with gaming. It broke my heart when it fell apart.
I wasn't around when it did. What happened exactly?
Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb are legends in my book. G4 was SUCH a fun channel from Cinematech to AOTS. I could just leave it on that channel all day and be hooked as to what's going on, even if it was reruns
Morgon just her. Adam lost my respect being a fem boy
Fifteen years later, and Olivia Munn is still a goddess.
Sure is.
As is Morgan Webb!
Personally, I never liked her. She's not attractive, and super annoying.
@@atrain132 lmao
Well shes wearing 15 pounds of makeup, juiced up on botox and skin steroids, so yeah, i guess she still is.
I can’t lie.. I really teared up when Kevin and Olivia got behind the podium. Their chemistry is still amazing too. This is one of the very best things that happened this year.
She went for a first bump with him and he made a big hole with his hands! Her reaction! 😂😂😂😂😂
@@gordodls23 I laughed for like 5 minutes when that happened.
@@gordodls23 I wish that I had a butt emoji to post. 😂
Just to hear Sessler talking again, man, this feels good. Real good.
I ran into him at the quake con Starbucks one year, ages after G4 went bust.
It's too bad he's a raging psycho now.
@@GranTorino7 I hadn't thought about Adam Sessler in year's but after reading your comment I immediately knew what his Twitter feed was like. I looked it up and my fears were confirmed.
@moon boots on my boots yeah definitely one of those cases where people liked him for his personality and humor and he thought that meant we'd listen to his politics. I know he wants to help things but that kind of stuff changes nothing on only makes the world a less fun place.
@@Flint_Ironstag of course he’s a left-winger. He’s not a moron.
The Republican Party is basically the EA of politics.
This is just sad now…I was so excited when this was first posted now it’s all over already.
X-Play was where I looked for my reviews I loved Adams takes on games, when the show ended we had to revert to IGN and Gamestop with their *Exaggerrated Swagger* of gaming reviews lol
@Balzac Gemini Same
You mean Gamespot* right?
And how bad IGN SUCKS!!!
@Grungeboy it's been years since I've looked anything up on them to be honest
I always wondered if G4 was actually hilarious or if it was just nostalgia. This has proven that this crew are some of the most hilarious people alive.
G4 was the ultimate clash of cultures...everyone got hit or represented. You literally can’t find this humor anywhere anymore either. ABSOLUTELY SHAPED MY BEING when I was younger. Grew up watching zdtv then tech tv with my pops. AOTS gave me my humor. Can’t believe I’m watching this rn. So much love for these people.
ssme.. some of the best memories watching these shows with him..
I would rush home from work to watch X-Play and AOTS. Man miss them so much.
“Finish each other’s sandwiches” ...We just gonna pretend Frozen didn’t steal from Attack of the Show
gonna pretend Frozen didn't steal from Arrested Development either...
also that sketch was from about 10 years before frozen lol
Dude I said the same thing lol
Maybe one of the writers worked on Frozen. They had to find jobs somewhere.
I just wanted to state for the record..."Japanese" Ninja warrior (original announcers and subtitles) still exceeds American Ninja Warrior by a huge margin.
Truth!
Yes
No lies detected! I remember watching it before plebs thought it was cool.
By far and it's not even close
I cant's stand watching American Ninja Warrior, it's not the same without the Japanese All-Stars or the commentators shouting in actual Japanese, and the American set it too polished and commercialized
"Remember me?"
"ONCE I GOOGLED YOU!"
That was a good line. It was made even funnier to me because just a couple weeks ago I just so happened to google her, and thought, "I think I vaguely remember her."
And then there came frosk and f***ed everything up in just 60 seconds😂
This man came in and spoke facts
Hearing the names (specifically) Adam Sessler, Kevin Pereira, Olivia Munn, Morgan Webb and Kristin Adams together makes my heart the happiest it has been in years.
Before the internet was widely available this channel is how I got all my gaming stuff glad to see it's back.
I literally recorded their E3 coverage on VHS tapes as a kid cuz our computer was so slow
Attack of the show and Xplay , the corner stone of my after school schedule
Xavier Wood's speech at the end made me tear up. Watching this made me remember how much simpler things felt as a kid/teen. Being an adult in this day and age sucks at times, but this reunion has raised my spirits and put me somewhat at ease about the future. Thank you for this. I needed it.
Same here
Truer words were never spoken.
Not cringy one bit. This is how skits should be done also they never lost it neither
It’s honestly astounding how they haven’t lost that spark
Seeing how much they’ve aged has made me realized how much I’ve aged, and I’ve never cried harder 😭
I miss those days so much
Kevin & Olivia were always so funny to me. Loved their chemistry! 😭
Morgan is amazing 😭
MY HEART CAN'T TAKE IT
YUPPPPP
OMG I'm 15 again....
Me too buddy, me too.
I just went back in time and I don't want to leave.
-Adam Sessler
They were the only network to properly cover everything at E3 and CES. I missed that
I had zero intention of watching this in one sitting. I absolutely watched this in one sitting. We need to talk about Xavier Woods' comedic timing and how perfect it is.
They tried to warn us and we didn't listen.
The fact that Olivia Munn would come back and do this reunion just creates a ton of goodwill with me. That's not to say that I harbor any ill-will towards her whatsoever, but seeing her acknowledge her roots is something I didn't expect of her. Well done. All of you.
i never really got the impression she was hiding from it, just that there needed to be some time to pass because there was some mixed feelings surrounding her leaving and the end of the network. I think they made fun of it a bit here since now there has been enough time for any hard feelings to go away.
I'm actually surprised that she agreed to do this. She spent the last couple of years of AOTS avoiding it like the plague!
I'm out of the loop. What happened
@@xeyon I too would like to know, I mostly watched X-Play, occasionally looked at AOTS.
@@xeyon I think they mean her just coming back to a small group studio, or her roots. Because she’s a big actress now
Turned out great! So honored to have edited and provided some voices for the Crazy Adam and Col. Duckbucket sketches!
Gig of a lifetime! Great job!
Don't be honored to have worked with Adam "doxing is good" Sessler
@@Brainhorn it is good
@@Brainhorn fucking drop it. At the end of the day Adam was tired of the toxic gatekeeping thats was prevalent at the time, and is still relevant today. He was one of the few alongside Morgan who championed for better treatment and portrayals of women in gaming, and always got flack for it on forums. Yes, he’s blunt and crass, but those toxic gamers loved it when he was blunt and crass for games they disliked as well. They just hated when they found it he didn’t agree with their ideals.
@@inugami3529 I didn't say anything about any of that. If you want me to go further into it, he's a self hating hypocrite who jumps between the "only good white guy" and the "Jewish minority victim" at the drop of a hat depending on which narrative he's pushing. He's also a cokehead.
Let us join Special Agent Bob and Secret Agent Steve and look back on the good times.
I just watched them for the 30th time.
Woooow i forgot about that skit lmao i used to be so excited as a kid when those came on
Navy Seals!
I still play Chaos Theory and think about those skits and just laugh.
It’s Grabnar the Wanderer and Steve the Vagina...
Anyone remember Cinematech? That show introduced me to so many obscure games.
