G4's Movies That Don't Suck

[HardyGirl]

Ok, so I'm in the living room sorting thru the mail, and the TV's on G4 b/c Superman (the movie) is on. It's been on a good hour, so I didn't see the intro, but the bumper caught me by surprise. Except for the stupid title, this harkens back to the ABC Movie of the Week, or the NBC Saturday Night At the Movies, or the Million Dollar Movie, or whatever syndicated weekly movie your local stations had in the 70s. It totally had me cracking up! Have a look:

I dig G4's Movies That Don't Suck...

The movies might not suck but the rest of G4's line up does. At least it did at the time last year when DirecTV dumped it from their line up. Not sure about now.

I used to watch when they ran Star Trek 2.0, Star Trek TNG and Highlander. I haven't for a long time now. I just wanted some background noise in the living room while I sorted the mail. This bumper was a pleasant surprise. I jut wish they could've come up w/ a better title.

Reminds me of the WPIX opening too. That font, if you could call it that, seemed prevalent in these openings:

Shame fricking DirecTV dropped G4. And yet I still get 900 channels that show nothing but shows about digging, pawn shops and other random meaningless jobs.

^No what's worse about them is all the shopping channels they have.

Is G4 the channel that constantly interupts movies with adds squeezing the movie to the top ?

I hate that.
