I watched CES coverage from DL.TV and Geek Brief TV and I have to say that Tekzilla beat them both. Excellent work guys! Jim, you really need to do a product review show on Rev3!

When Pat,Jim,Roger were at DL.tv they did the best IMO CES shows now that all 3 are at Rev3 I expected the same detailed coverage and they did a great job to me I hope next weeks ep is more CES, to me this was a great episode.:)

i think it was very very feature packed, tons of details and lots of stuff to see, so very good content..
but for some reason, i thought production value wasn't that good, don't know if its the music (lack of), camera, or what, but i just didn't get the lively view i usually see with tekzilla.
I hate to say this, but I think i enjoyed last year's CES coverage with InDigital a little bit more.
Again though, I thought it had a TON of content which was very very nice to see! I just wish it had the same high quality production indigital had last year for CES, or even the other tekzilla shows!
just my opinion

brucebeh, it probably had to do with time. They had the deadline to hit.
I hope we get more CES stuff next week.

Its the only tekzilla I have not had to skip past the boring parts, good show.
Thanks Rivive.
P.S no offence to the hosts its just the previous shows lacked any real content.

Good stuff! Jim Louderback and Sumi Das were my gadget gurus back in the day. I always felt Jim gave an honest assessment of gadgets because he actually told you what sucked about them too and didn't mince words.
I agree with he above, Jim having a more permanent gadget segment would be cool. InDigital bored me the few episodes I downloaded so I never watched it.

My favourite Tekzilla so far, good job Rev3, it was so much better for not featuring Jessica who really only acts as the uninformed user/ sounding board on the show.

I've always liked Jim's product reviews so I wasn't surprised when I saw this CES Show, knowing he would be in front of the camera. As many have already said he's always fair about his review but what I like most is his passion for what he does because it always comes out in his appearances. I’m sure Jim is proving to be a great CEO for Revision3, but his track record for on-air gadget reviews has been proven time and time again.
Great show this week; I’m looking forward to the unleashing of the Norton and anticipating for the next evolution at Revision3.

That... Was... Awesome!!
This probably was my favorite episode of TekZilla yet! It was very informative, got straight to the point and told you what was good, and what was bad.
Like everyone else, please have more CES content at the beginning of next week if possible! Thanks!
I like TekZilla, but I feel it is mostly held back to by the technical illiterate... Need to figure out a crowd: Newbies and novices or experienced to advanced. Like I said, it seems to be aimed almost too much to the novice crowd. Does Corbin really use a computer? Kind of like the one dude above said, she is pretty much just a sound board and someone to stop Pat from talking to himself which sadly made me feel good that Jim was replacing her this time. Sorry!
Thanks again,
Manna

1. LOVE Patrick Norton (for like years)
2. Jim Louderback did a great job
I have been watching _breaking_ CES coverage
from several sources.
I found out
that this CES coverage was not so much about content
..rather, who could get news out faster.
So you have to sift, you see.
I was BLOWN OUT about the *quality* CES coverage
Revision3 put out in record time.
Most of us out here WANT to see the show-stoppers
and you def came through.
Been loving tekzilla long-time
(well.. it is kinda new)
Paid Rev3 fan .. but I still have issues.
WHY is your show not offered in HD
.. like diggnation?
Why is diggnation the only
paid early content show
when Rev3 offers MANY great shows
.. that they could charge for early content.
These are the questions that swim in my head
when I see QUICK *quality* coverage
.. of a show that is hard to define

I agree that the show was excellent, but check out Cranky Geeks CES coverage.

I am not too upset at Jessica's segments, but I do hope the show starts to have a bit more content otherwise it will grow old fast. I have yet to find any of the 'Code Red's useful.
They also need to figure out what the show is going to be, a tech show like TSS, or a product review show like InDigital. Make that the primary focus with the occasional bit for the other, but the show needs a real focus to gather and hold an audience. So far the 'tech' has been rather light and fluffy as been noted before.

Based on your description, it's a tech show.
Great show, guys! You sure packed a lot of stuff into an hour! Wonder if Patrick was able to pry Jim away from the Geffen booth, lol! ;)

I know they are all buddies, but I could almost hear Robert saying, "You jerks left me! <cry>" :D

So, how long before Robert joins the Rev3 team? Place your bets!

Could have done without the CES coverage. Every year all the tech news outlets do their forced death march out to the desert. They show products that may or may not ever come out, complain about their sore feet and sinus infections then try and make it seem somehow newsworthy.
Next year skip it, Just read engadget like the rest of us. It'll hurt less, cost less money and won't spread disease.

CEO...take a memo!
Make some more appearances on R3G for info on the company and Tekzilla for kick-ass CE reviews.
