    i was informed by Grimmus, that the owner of techtv was holding Leo's contract basicaly at ransome to get more money from the merger with G4, so Leo departed becuase of that.

    Leo was like...The mascot...I mean, I guess I didnt really watch The Screensavers all that much(though I did when Martin Sargent was on there), but...Damn, he's THE Leo Laporte! There is no TechTV without him!

    -Before-

    TechTv: Ha ha! I have the almighty Leo Laporte! We'll merge with you for 10 million, G4!

    G4: We only have 9 Million, plus the hot chick in the cat girl outfit

    Techtv: Hmm...

    Adam Sessler: Say Yes!

    TechTv: no, not yet, get the rest, and some more chicks!

    -After-

    TechTv: Crap, we're screwed

    G4: 10 bucks and a transvestite with a vestiigual Tail

    Techtv: .... sold... <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Hey, it's alright! G4TV and TechTV are merging, and the folks at TechTV were greedy enough to want all of Leo's share in the channel. He left TechTV, but has informed G4 that he would love to work at the new channel once the merger is done. So he'll be back!

    TechTV wanted all the shares.

    Was he the old or young guy on Screensavers? If its the old guy, then today sucks. The old guy was the EVERYTHING of that show. He kicked ****.
