What does the future hold for tekzilla? Are there any plans for it to come to the airwaves? I would love to see Patrick and Veronica on the big/medium or whatever size screen.

No. It's an IPTV show. It's part of the Revision3 iptv network. If you want to see Tekzilla on a big/medium size screen, I suggest buying a bigger monitor.

I'm sorry to say it, but yep, what you say.
If there were a market for geek programs on broadcast/cable/satellite TV, the medium wouldn't be so littered with failed programs and networks. It says a lot when most computer related programs can't even stay afloat on PBS.
I know we all loved ZDTV/TechTV and all that, but we are also not the typical broadcast audience. G4 couldn't even survive as a gaming network...they had to become more of yet another "lifestyle" network. The average TV viewer wants to watch more programming like what's carried on Spike and such.
There's a reason that TVs picked up the nickname "boob tubes" in the broadcast market, and it has nothing to do with female anatomy.

The number of viewers was small to begin with. Yes they were loyal but not enough to justify a network. That is why IPTV works with this type of content. We are lucky that all this happened when it did, otherwise, if this happened several years back IPTV would have died due to a low broadband subscription base. I for one wouldn't have tried to download all the shows I do using dial up.
