Kevin Pereira leaving G4

[Das Pike]

Following suit a la Sessler I suppose.

Pereira delivers his final live on-location coverage for the gaming world's biggest event, the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3), from June 4-7.

I kinda stopped watching AOTS when Olivia Munn left. I will completely stop watching it now.

And Adam Sessler is also leaving as well.

Looks like it's a case of the last person leaving G4, please turn off the lights.

Saw this two days ago and as a longtime AOTS viewer, this REALLY sucks.

Hopefully, AOTS will get someone that knows what they are doing. It is brutal when Candice tries to do anything other than read the prompter. She is especially bad at interviewing people.

And Adam Sessler is also leaving as well.

Sessler is actually done already.

I agree. Candace is pretty much useless and Sara's voice is insanely annoying; AoTS is the only reason why I watch G4. Now that Pererira is leaving I doubt I'll watch it at all now. Bring back Layla Kayleigh!

I guess the hope would be that this leads them to bring in more young good talent, just like they did with Kevin and Olivia.

Kinda took me by surprised but if you think about it, it was inevitable

Lots of good people left, Adam Sessler, Alison Haislip and Chris Hardwick

I cannot think of anybody taking Kevin's place. The logical choice is Blair Herter. But I think he'll be busy with X Play. Matt Mira?

I would love to see Chris Hardwick stepping in. But he recently left. But I really hope he's asked back. At least on a temporary basis.

I was hoping good things for G4 and AOTS since NBCUniversal took over. But since then, key people has left.

Holy sh!t.

That sucks.

Very good last episode

Pretty much. Comcast's plan was to relaunch G4 as the UFC Channel but at the last minute, Fox swooped in and outbid Comcast. G4 has been basically left to die until its cable affiliate deals are due for renewal.

The UFC stuff on AOTS is one of the few segments I would always fast forward through.

So I'm guessing AOTS will have rotating guest hosts alongside Candace for a while then just fade away

I don't think AOTS will even have Comic Con coverage this year.

i only caught the last half, but his final episode was really great, and pretty sad too.

the ending was pretty awesome.

After Kevin Pereira's announcement, the logical choice for his replacement is Chris Hardwick. But with the rotating guest hosts, we know that will not happen.

The first half of this video explains why:



The Comedy Central show looks very interesting. Especially if Hardwick is hosting it.

I think after G4 runs out of guest hosts, AoTS is pretty much done I'm sure Candace will get back into acting and Sara will find new opportunities either in TV or movies.

[PlatinumGLS]

Michael Ian Black has been good this week but I think they need at least one host that knows "nerdy" stuff.

PS: Wonder what Kevin has been up to?

Him and his production company is working on a viral video showdown show on SyFy.
