Attack of the Show is now reviewing beers? Does that sound familiar to anyone?


Wow. Just wow.

That's amazing.

I find it even more interesting that they don't seem to know who they're targeting anymore, either.

Anyone can do anything, but it makes no difference if nobody watches.

How is that show on like right when school gets out in California?

You're right... who ARE they targeting? Half their shit appeals to high school myspacers, and the other half appeals to 30ish year old single males.

The only thing that show has going for it is Casey (Office Jesus, writer, producer). And, sorry to say, but he's not enough to make me watch it.

I'm half tempted to watch it once just to see the beer review though. When is it on? Every episode? Or what?

Well, knowing them it's probably shown multiple times during each episode considering in your pants is now on everyday or just about, no longer a weekly segment.

You all ask very good looking questions, as for the target audience; that's hard
to say because they are very much like SpikeTV with the Man show, Cops, and Star Trek:TNG. So who are they going for?

As for the when are they reviewing the beer segment. I think it's something new!
It totally surprised me to see a new girl on there peddling beer for Kevin to
taste test.

They've had alcohol related segments for over a year now. And how does reviewing beer at all copy off of diggnation? Alex and Kevin don't even review beer. They just say "this taste like ass" or "its good" or "it taste like santa". I wouldn't call those reviews.
Aots is still crappy though. Which reminds me. Did anyone else listen to net at night a couple of weeks ago when kevin was on!?!?!? Leo and Kevin were talking about bringing tss back in a year or so on the inter web. AWESOME!!!

It's actually her grand-fathers funeral. He died of cancer. I watch the show every day, sad isn't it. It's the only show, other than X-Play thats decent.I like Kevin Pereira, he's really talented if you give him a chance. The beer thing made me immediately think of diggnation even down to the brand of beer he tried. He even said "tastes like christmas". I'm sure Alex said the same thing. They have had alcohol related content for a while. It was probably a one time segment.

Blair is a well-known lush. I hope she lands on her feet when G4 goes belly-up..

This was great cause a friend of mine was over and I had this episode (friday right) TiVod and as soon as we saw the segment it made me think of "Taste Like Santa" and "Drink Santas white foam" from last weeks Diggnation and I paused it to tell him about it. And then when we unpaused they where coming up on the review of the same ****ing beer. And we where just waiting for Kevin P. to say the same thing. Instead he busted out Taste Like Christmas... not sure if it was ripping off of Digg but in my head it was. Just gives me another reason to hate them.

Heh, I ditched AOTS, or however you say the acronym for the darn thing when Kevin Rose left. It is sad that that show is trying to copy Diggnation. The freaking channel is trying to be everything (But the channel is failing because of that and the lackluster content.) I really just want to storm down to the G4 building and give them a piece of everyone's minds.

I agree with Kowgod, they have Office Jesus, but is that even funny enough to bring me back to the channel? No, I have the X-play podcast on iTunes and that is all I need.

AOTS is like a derailed train headed straight for the canyon sparking and skidding along the rocky desert terrain while all the fans of TSS sit on benches drinking 40s in anticipation of its certain demise. I guess what I'm trying to say is AOTS sucks. Kevin P is annoying. I stopped watching after Kevin and Sarah left.
