I'm sure there's more than one thread about this but I was watching Episode 159 and saw the part where Alex was reminiscing about the TechTV days. If they brought Leo Laporte back and grabbed Adam Sessler and Morgan Webb from the hellish clutches of G4 and started a vid game review on here, this site would be the @#$@, not to say it isn't already. Props to Kevin Rose for launching this and reviving the intelligence from TechTV that's currently lacking immensely from G4. New member, first post, glad I found this.

I think it is better that Leo is doing his own thing separately from Rev3. The TWiT network is like the first couple years of TTV, while Rev3 is more like the final years with the lifestyle content. Trying to reconstitute TTV is a bad idea.

Hey thats a good idea. I would never have to watch tv again if they had Adam and Morgan on rev3. also, thats one thing rev3 needs is a solid video game show. (excluding TRS, which talks about movies, comics, etc.) :)

They would have to pay Leo a whole hell of a lot of money to leave Twit and I still don't think he'd do it. I think he prefers to be his own boss.

Leo doesn't have to come back for everything or leave TWiT. In the same matter that Kevin can do TWiT every now and then, if Leo could come and do one show a week or every couple weeks--or come and guest host Tekzilla or something every now and then--it would be great.
With respect to Adam and Morgan, I would love to have a dedicated game review show, in addition to TRS. TRS could do the big game releases and Adam and Morgan could do the others, along with more gaming news. I realize that this is impractical, since X-Play (or whatever it is now) has more than just Adam and Morgan playing the games (at least I assume so). However, I still think it could be done, and then I wouldn't even be tempted to pay for G4.

I agree with this.
Also, I've always thought of Leo as the helpful neighborhood dad... I don't know why... He makes me feel safe and I always know he'll be there with a good solution or answer. I don't even know the guy and he translates that well.
