Default Show Suggestions

Should Patrick Norton film an episode wearing a kilt? Do you think the the theme song should be changed to "Take On Me" by a-ha? Have an idea for a cool segment or product review? Whatever it may be, feel free to post it here!

How about an episode where Wil Wheaton says some funny stuff about video games. Then, Jessica Corbin laughs her head off at all of Wil's jokes.

Maybe also an episode with guest video of Hahn Choi reviewing something. If Wil and Jessica got into that video it would be good too because everyone always likes those three together. We never really care about what they are reviewing. Just that they are funny and entertaining as a trio.

Unhappy Psdss

I think both hosts are suffering from post show dramatic stress syndrome. They need to be more original and not try and meld every show they've been in together. Lose the lame gaming section, go more in depth with your products and Patrick let Jessica talk. Also, what's with the F bomb for no reason Pat? Patrick we all like you already and throwing out the F bomb without any substance to back it up just makes you look like you're trying too hard. If you wanna throw the F bomb around fine but do it when it makes sense.

What's with the bricks and graffiti guys? Not very techie and it just looks wrong. I hope you didn't break the bank with that set. Also, Pat if you're gonna do a hands on review try to plan it out and practice it better otherwise pre-record it and edit it like Jessica did with her tutorial. You guys need to smooth out your reviews to make it flow better. Until you guys work these kinks out you're just gonna have a some what mediocre show...

Here is a suggestion. Fix the audio. I couldnt believe how often I had my mouse on the audio control to constantly be turning it up and down to keep the audio level the same. Especially when Jessica screamed, it woke up everyone in the house.

One more note, I agree with the post above. Lose the gaming reviews. There is already an entire network (g4) that ruined an amazing channel (techtv) by converting every awesome show into a gamming show.

The show has potential:

What I liked: -Tips and tricks I didn't know such as battery segment and filming video.
-Patrick Norton

What needs work: -Length: It seemed dragged out, over 30 minutes to learn a couple things? Add more humor or technology stuffs and get a co-host that doesn't play so dumb that leads to long conversation. Show me what you're talking about, highlight some points and move on.
-Set: It works, but seems dull for a tech show. Also cramped/small space.
-Content: Would love to see extraordinary gadgetry that is expensive or I wouldn't have thought existed. Reviews for products that I can afford as well. Vudu? Did you get paid to talk about that? I Really don't see why you have Netflix for a sponsor then try to talk about a $300 + $4/movie package. If it were a product I can put HD content I downloaded for free I would be more enthused about it.

I like the half-hour length. Gives time to fully explain stuff. Especially if, as You mentioned, upcoming shows will feature DIY segments.
Bravo to Patrick & Jessica! Been a fan since the Tech TV days.
The show is great so far.

You are so right, the intro very fucking loud, and when they talk about the sponsors.
I have to be ready to turn it down and is not just Tekzilla, I think is every show.
COME ON GUYS !!!

Didn't David Randolf teach you guys how to edit the right way?

Default More geek look and feel

I think this is a first good attempt.

Like
I thought the battery segment was awesome. The Japanese flavor too.

Tired
I've seen enough product reviews. Unless they're really revolutionary I'd skip those segments.

Suggestion
We need more of a geek feel. Keep the wardrobe simple Jess, tech T-shirts are the ticket and a little less bling.

The set needs to be more geeky, not industrial but maybe more like your parents basement where you worked on projects. I like the poker table top work area. Get the mature rating from the gambling and not the language, unless it's you Jess.

Maybe its me but a longer intro & theme song would be better. Its awkwardly short.
