However, Sessler has since struck out at the former gaming channel, which now focuses on content for male audiences, on his Twitter account. Needless to say, he doesn’t hold back.

“Now that G4 has officially become a Men’s channel, maybe they can afford the set of balls to tell me why i was fired. #GottaLetItOut”

Strong words? Sure, but remember that Sessler was removed from the channel with absolutely no explanation. Maybe G4TV wanted to expunge its previous gamer-oriented identity by removing any and all traces of the culture from its channel, extending to the staff themselves?

Whatever the reasons may be, this drama is only getting hotter. How will G4TV respond? Stay tuned.

Adam Stotsky, recently appointed as G4 general manager, told TV Guide that while the shows have been important and altogether groovy for the network, this is intended as a rebranding exercise to shape the channel closer to the likes of magazine GQ. He does intend to honour their contributions however, with farewell episodes featuring past hosts and guests.

And while it may be somewhat of a sad thing to see these shows end (*cough*notreally*cough*), both have had a nice long run. X-Play debuted in 2003 and has about 1300 episodes, with Attack of the Show premiering in 2005 and running 1700 episodes since.

Rex and Leigh view themselves as relationship experts and therefore a “perfect couple”, while Dave and Julia are considered the normal pair to whom everyone can relate.” – Wikipedia

During my venture in Los Angeles, California for the Spike Video Game Awards, I ran into Adam Sessler the co-host of G4TV’s show X-Play, which is all about video games.  He was kind enough to give me a few moments of his time.  This was at a Marvel vs Capcom 3 “Food Fight” Event to see who was the better chef while people got a chance to play Marvel vs Capcom 3 including myself…
