CheapyD on Attack of the Show (G4) Tonight, 8/22 at 7pm EST

[CheapyD]

Tonight at 7pm EST, I'll be appearing on G4's Attack of the Show (http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/index.html), taking part in their first global edition of "The Loop". We'll be talking about how the world views Halo 3, the iPhone, and more.

You can watch the video here! (http://www.g4tv.com/pile_player.aspx?video_key=17562)

[CYRiX]

Sweet. Will be watching.

EDIT: Where will you be filming from? Your apartment?

[gunm]

Sweet. Anyone care to vid cap this for those of us who missed it?

[NamPaehc]

Sweet. Anyone care to vid cap this for those of us who missed it?

Hah, I'm dusting off my VHS so I don't have to wait for that.

[DesertEagleXIX]

Congrats. Tell us if Olivia and Kevin are a couple or not.

[Friend of Sonic]

Not to thread crap, but has Attack of the Show improved any? I remember it being a terrible bastardization of The Screen Savers (which they had wound up ruining anyway)

[AlphakirA]

ha, was just watching AotS the other day wondering why you hadn't went on there yet. Neat, I'll have to check this out :)

[Killer Rabbit]

Sweet.

Break a leg!

[LinkinPrime]

I'll set my DVR now... Damn CheapyD were all little people compared to you now.
Congrats!

[gunm]

Aha, I can do "start over" on my digital cable box. Going to check this out now...

[artimus_black]

I'll miss it at 6 central. But I'll try to catch it at 10...

[gunm]

Oh wait, it's tomorrow night, Wednesday the 22nd. It's confusing when Cheapy says "Today!" when he is posting in Japan time where it's already tomorrow (yeah yeah it's tomorrow already for most of you, but I'm not in the continental US). >_<

[Ikohn4ever]

a couple things, tell kevin that the loop isn't hard hitting journalism, make sure to ask about and stare at olivia's cleavage, ohh and good luck

[hiccupleftovers]

Please put it up Cheapy or somebody. I just gave up on G4 today to save a bit of money. The only thing I miss from that channel is Ninja Warrior anyway and perhaps a bit of X-Play/AotS here and there, but not really.

[T3kN]

Nice CHEAPY! Man you have gotten really popular.
If I were you, I would just sell out like those douchebags on that show. lol jk ahahhaahahah

[yukine]

Awesome, nice job Cheapy.

Hopefully someone can YouTube it, as I don't have G4.

[Logg]

I will be watching this, just think some dude that has killed in a on-line game will be on tv.

I might be able to date Lindsey Lohan now.

[Nelo Ice]

will def be watching this..provided i remember

[shinryuu]

Not to thread crap, but has Attack of the Show improved any? I remember it being a terrible bastardization of The Screen Savers (which they had wound up ruining anyway)
Not really, but still, this is a cool oppurtunity.

Kevin has a tendency to interrupt people during that segment so make sure you get your words out.. or just speak over him like the tall, powerful man that you are.

[MSUHitman]

If you have an IPod/ITunes you can download most of the choice segments of both of those shows as video podcasts. X-Play has just one podcast, but AotS has it's main podcast, plus seperate podcasts for Gadget Pron, In Your Pants, Fresh Ink, The Feed, and Game Break.

[Blackout]

Nice Cheapy! Good luck on the show.

[panasonic]

Do not forget to go for epic lulz

I hate Itunes. I wish there was some other way to download the Video Podcasts like through Juice or some other way. If there was than that'd be great and I'd probably pick up the show here and there. Otherwise, I'm not really missing too much by cancelling G4. I still have Spike for that after all.

[Milkyman]

damn, cheapy's blowin' up and still he can't "cheap ass gamer dot com " on any of his appearances

edit: does this mean no cagcast?

[CheapyD]

I'm pretty sure they can do "Cheap Ass Gamer" on G4, but I don't know.
Yes, there will be a CAGcast recorded as soon as get back from the studio.

p.s. I'm doing this from a studio in Tokyo...

[G-Nitro]

Awesome man. I never miss an AOTS, so I'll be watching.

[youruglyclone]

I'll cap it and rapidshare it or something...I still have those dmca complaints from bloomberg, so yeah...I'm going to pass on youtube.

otherwise here's to everything going smoothly Cheapy.

[the_gloaming]

Don't forget to give all of us CAGs a shout out!

[y2jedi]

Cool,
I dont have G4, but it's one of my 4 free channels this week.

I'll be watching.

[jeremywoods]

a couple things, tell kevin that the loop isn't hard hitting journalism, make sure to ask about and stare at olivia's cleavage, ohh and good luck

lol olivia's cleavage

she phailed that hotdog thing miserably... :bomb:

[Chitown021]

AOTS blows for the most part but I'm in if Cheapy is going to be on there.

[fwacce]

Well, this is very depressing news. You spend all this time building your reputation as someone to be respected in the game industry, and it all comes crashing down by appearing on a hack show like AOTS. Very depressing indeed...

Seriously though, that show really is terrible. I suppose if they ever brought back Rose and Laporte, then that would be a great show to be on.

[jeremywoods]

Don't forget to give all of us CAGs a shout out!

that would be aaaawesome!

and yeah congratulations cheapy! looking forward to watchin AOTS later today :bouncy:

[wubb]

Sweet, I'll be sure to actually watch that one off the DVR. :lol:

There's been some talk about AotS's quality so here's my take:

Around the Net (opening bit) is usually entertaining. Then I'll usually skip to DVDeusday or the Gadget segment if they are on that day and I sometimes watch The Loop if the guests or topic interest me. I probably watch maybe 1 out of 5 Loops.

The Feed and In Your Pants are always skip worthy.

And it's a given that The Screen Savers was a better show but that's kind of a distant memory at this point.

[benjamouth]

Wow, it's been a while since AOTS was worth watching, I'll tune in, just to project the message that Cheapy = Ratings.

[PyroGamer]

I'll tune in, just to project the message that Cheapy = Ratings.
You're a nielson ratings home?


LUCCCCKKKKYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!




Someone plzzz tape and YouTube this! I don't get G4 (or any of that hi-tech kay-bell televisions that you'alls do.)

[CyberTrick]

Good job, make us proud, and remember to put on an extra layer of shine on that bald head of yours.


tip: try not to stare at Olivia's cleavage

[bobthecat23]

cheapy is da man cheapy dont forgetto mention all the little ppl that helped u get to that status

[SpecTrE3353]

cheapy is da man cheapy dont forgetto mention all the little ppl that helped u get to that status

Your sig makes me want to vomit.

[bobthecat23]

Your sig makes me want to vomit.


why so my fellow CAG

[BrandonMills]

You'll be stateside? Does that mean you'll be getting your Xbox 360 RMAed?

[startrbear]

I can't believe I'll actually be watching Attack of the Show since the first time in... Well, since it was The Screen Savers. Way to class up the joint, Cheapy.

http://www.lolcats.com/images/u/07/32/lolcatsdotcombel6rpxu6pf29yv7.jpg

[kennistond]

If you don't think of AotS as "The New Screensavers" and think of it as a shitty Sportscenter for anything, then it's watchable.

I'll be watching for sure. If not at 7, then I'll catch the 11 o'clock show.

[MysteryMan2333]

Congrats Cheapy. Looks like your man in Japan segments have paid off nicely!

[Chronis]

:O Muy bueno, senor Cheapy. i haven't watched G4 in a loooooong time. And even then, the last few times was just to ogle Kirsten Holt on Cheat!. But I definitely watch the mighty bald one with his booming voice of doom.

[crystalklear64]

Don't let that bastard Kevin cut you off! Fight for your air time man!

[Deefuzz]

Not to thread crap, but has Attack of the Show improved any? I remember it being a terrible bastardization of The Screen Savers (which they had wound up ruining anyway)

Nope, it's still crap, along with most of the rest of the channel.

I miss the Screen Savers so much.

I'll watch tonight for Cheapy though.

[neocisco]

Get Olivia's number for me.

Oh, like I'm the first one to ask.:roll: :)

[mikeohara]

grats Cheapy ... if Kevin tries to cut you off, tell him to go fuck himself.

[artimus_black]

I don't think half of these people have ever seen the loop if they're telling you to ask for Olivia's number and everything... The people in the loop aren't on location. They're somewhere else. As Cheapy said, he'll be in Tokyo or something... That's not where Olivia and Kevin is...

Anyways, like I said, I'll check it out at 10 tonight.

[neocisco]

Anyways, like I said, I'll check it out at 10 tonight.

...and yet he will still be able to speak with them. What kind of crazy magic is this?

BTW, it was a joke.:roll:

[machoman_93]

At the end say shaq fu Circuit City, lol.

[cag1000]

FINNNALLLY!

It's about time you got your due on that channel. I'm proud of your recent media success and happy to have been with you since the beggining. Congrats I'll be watchin.

[cdeener]

CheapyD, you should make an appearance again when AOTS is in Tokyo for the Tokyo Game Show and give your impressions on what is being shown.

[fatherofcaitlyn]

If only Cheapy could be on Code Monkeys.

[sj41]

He should be on in about 20 minutes, right? Doesn't the loop start 10 minutes into the show?

[Wolve11]

Well it'll be on in about 5 more minutes, so I'm definitely going to tune in and give it a watch. Good to see Cheapy get some more airtime.

[cdeener]

For those that don't have G4 this segment will be available after the original airing at their website that is listed in the OP under the Loop so you don't have to worry about putting it up on Youtube or recording it unless someone just wants to.

[Mad-B-Man]

Meh, I'd rather see Cheapy be on something more serious than this show, or network even.

I gave up on the show back when it was still TSS manned by the new G4 staff. I think it was the second episode where one of the new hosts blew a fuse on one of his coworkers on air.

Cheapy get's paid for this though right? So I guess It's alright.

[Z-Saber]

Eh, I'm already up and on CAG, so I guess I'll watch it live. Hope it's soon though as I need some sleep.

[jbroush99]

Charter picked a great day to move G4 from expanded cable to digital (which I recently cancelled). Fuckers!

[Edge of Heart]

This show sucks.:puke:

[Logg]

I actually kinda like this show, better then must shit on TV at this time.

[Z-Saber]

It's on after the commercial, apparently.

[spydey]

I wish they would do it already.

[Z-Saber]

There it is!

[Sofa King Kool]

Woo! There he is!

[spydey]

Finally.

[magiic]

I missed it :( damn girlfriend dragging me to the mall

[spydey]

Dang. I want a Japanese phone.

[SpottedNigel]

Cheapy D: Live from a random Tokyo restroom

[spooie_redux]

Nice to see the website referred to as "Cheapassgamer.com" for once, instead of "CheapyD.com" or "CAG.com".

Though I must ask... what kind of green screen was Cheapy in front of? On my TV, it looked like the transition effect between layers came out of a 70s scifi series.

[Ikohn4ever]

the delay makes the other country people seem a lil foolish

[spydey]

Well that was kind of sucky.

[Z-Saber]

Cheapy D: Live from a random Tokyo restroomYeah, the acoustics of the room completely suck and his green/blue screen is pretty bad. Not your fault, Cheapy.

Now it's over. Didn't give you too much time there, but you did well with what you had. Nice job, Cheapy.

[Sofa King Kool]

That was cool.

[spydey]

Yeah, Cheapy was the highlight.

[camoor]

LoL - I just found this out randomly.

Perera is such an ass, how dare he interrupt the great Cheapy D (that's Mr. D to you)

[spydey]

Well, time to finish packing for PAX. :)

[Wolve11]

Definitely was hoping you'd have a little more success Cheapy, but the sound and the delay took a little bit of your thunder.

I'm quite impressed with them actually putting up the name of the website instead of putting something else.

The show was annoying as heck and I wish they would've started off with your part.

[SpottedNigel]

...dude in the xbox 360 shirt is an ass.

I have not seen him do or say anything worthwile since I got this station.

[pop311]

who is that sexy man down there????

[SpottedNigel]

It's Gojira!!!

[sj41]

nice shine. i tried to catch it live, but i recorded it in case i missed it, so I'll check it out soon.

[thorbahn3]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v382/thorbahn3/IMG_0011.jpg

[PapiChullo]

Damn, I missed it. Don't they replay AotS at some point?

[zombi]

Its on again at 8 for those on dish network, Cheapy's on around the 45 minute mark ya? I really dont want to sit through the rest of the show.

[youruglyclone]

Damn, I missed it. Don't they replay AotS at some point?

11 pm eastern will cap that for anyone who needs it.

[Chitown021]

Damn, I missed it. Don't they replay AotS at some point?

They replay the SH*T out of all of their shows. You can catch AOTS later the same night it airs and I think over the weekend they replay all of the previous week's shows.

They also show Code Monkeys all the time. although that's about the only show I like on the channel so I don't mind it too much.

[Graystone]

tivo'd it now must watch it.

[Graystone]

Damn, I missed it. Don't they replay AotS at some point?

Every few hours until tomorrows show at 7pm.

[Milkyman]

aw sheeit they put cheapassgamer on-screen!

[PyroGamer]

So, anyone record this and going to upload it for poor folks like me without fancy cable television?

[GAMERMASTERMAN]

i watched it earlier, nice :) seems like they mainly cared about the guy in US but still ok. i still hate G4 tho.
thats the first time i watched G4 since right after the buyout except for an occasional episode of COPS.

i liked TechTV & G4, but when they combined they tried to make it a spike tv style channel and it sucked :(

atleast i can watch/listen to Revision 3 & TWiT :) that kinda replaces techtv

[figcoinc]

Lots of G4 hate? It is a okay channel. I don't watch T.V anyhow. Though I do enjoy AOTS. Plus Lalya Kaliegh is my type of woman!

Anyhow, I know there was a delay but I thought it was rude of Kevin to ask their resident G4 guy a question about the UK when a UK person was RIGHT THERE! I noticed she seemed a bit miffed by that.

Though good job there CheapyD.

[CYRiX]

lol for everyone who didn't think they'd put ass on aots you apparently dont know they have a sex talk portion of the show with a sex expert lol.

[tankbot]

I managed to catch it while flipping through the channels. Nice shirt Cheapy!

[GAMERMASTERMAN]

Lots of G4 hate? It is a okay channel. I don't watch T.V anyhow. Though I do enjoy AOTS. Plus Lalya Kaliegh is my type of womanu ever watch TechTV? :) it was way better, screen savers & call for help were my 2 favorite shows, i even enjoyed X-Play before G4 took over

and personally, i think layla is annoying :) u can tell they just put her on there to try to get more viewers.

[integralsmatic]

i dont get G4 and i have cablevision...someone needs to upload this stat.

[ramatut4001]

I'm out of town but I just got on snapstream.net and told my dvr to record the next showing. 1100 diggs and now G4 exposure, Cheapy is a star! When is Wombat gonna be on TV?

[DesertEagleXIX]

I just put on G4, and the channel is down on Dish Network.
I guess someone knocked satellite 119 out of the sky.

[mikeohara]

I just watched the segment ... and did anyone else notice on their TV that Cheapy was being key'd in kinda oddly??

[zewone]

youtube link needed.

[youruglyclone]

youtube link needed.

yeah...not going to risk another dcma warning...but I will be putting up a mp4 version on rapidshare in about 10 minutes

[VAD3R or Fro]

I never watch G4 now, but I watched the show at 11 since Cheapy was on.

[artimus_black]

He can talk to Kevin... He could probably talk to Olivia as well, but it won't be any time while he's on the air... So we wouldn't have seen it.

I really don't like Layla Keyleigh, althought she apparently works, because my friend thinks he's better looking than Olivia. I think he's crazy...

Anyways, nice job on The Loop. You'll probably be on it again. They keep circulating the same people... I don't know why they had Chris Gore on there though... He should just stick to DVDuesday.

I enjoyed Tech TV and The Screensavers as well as Call for Help and that show that Kevin Pereirra came from... Some kind of video game show where teams battled each other...

Kevin Rose, Patrick Norton, Leo Laporte, Yoshi, Dan, and Sarah was awesome. Still kind of bummed that they said they'd come visit the show every once and a while and never visited...

Edit... I did end up catching it at 6:30 after Jeopardy went off. and then, when I was watching it at 10... It cut out at about 10:30... Stupid satellite.

[youruglyclone]

slightly off sync with the audio, will probably cut out some of the fat and re-upload...if anyone needs it. still watchable


link deleted

[Roth]

I caught it today. I went, Hey! It's the Eggman!
I wanted to hear what more he was going to say about the Japanese mobile phones over there before the host cut him off due to time.

// Roth

[Milkyman]

lol for everyone who didn't think they'd put ass on aots you apparently dont know they have a sex talk portion of the show with a sex expert lol.

Seriously? what the hell is this show about? I saw clip of that female host olivia munn i think eating a hotdog that was hanging off of a string.

[Bazz]

Nice work Cheapy. My gf saw you on and called me right away was so funny very cool.

[Foo228]

good showing and congrats cheapy!

for some reason i feel as if the majority of peoply at attack of the show either have cag accounts or feel as if cag is a very reliable and reputable site (which it is!...for the most part)

[artimus_black]

Seriously? what the hell is this show about? I saw clip of that female host olivia munn i think eating a hotdog that was hanging off of a string.


It's supposedly news about everything that 'geeks' will find interesting... They get more people to watch it by putting attractive people on there... I think that's why Leo, Yoshi, and Patrick got the boot... Still wish Kevin would sign with someone and do a show on t.v. instead of all his shows on the internet, they're kind of hard to watch... I remember there was another Kevin on there with Kevin Rose after G4 bought Tech TV. I can't remember his name, but he was cool too.

[Jon Rose]

Leo and Pat left, as opposed to getting booted.

God i hate that show. Fell asleep infront of the TV yesterday and awoke to a Loop segment where they interviewed a lawyer from the ACLU (person who knew something) and the "editor in chief" of some website (smug, trendy fuckwit who didn't know anywhere near as much as he thinks he does and desperately needs to be repeatedly punched in the face). Let me know when that clip's up.

[FaintDeftone]

slightly off sync with the audio, will probably cut out some of the fat and re-upload...if anyone needs it. still watchable

http://rapidshare.com/files/50692553/Global_Loop.mp4.html


Thanks!

Ha, Cheapy was cheesin' the whole damn time.

[gunm]

Nice shirt, Cheapy. Orange, too. Did you buy that one in Tokyo?

The satellite feed was understandably laggy, and seemed more awkward than the ones on broadcast TV. I wonder if that'll kill this segment's future, or if they're going to continue it?

I'm disappointed in the lack of talk time for the two International guests, but I guess that's what happens when you only allot 5-7 minutes for a segment.

Anyways, congrats, Cheapy for finally making it onto G4!

Maybe you can swing another appearance if/when ATOS or X-Play does Tokyo Game Show coverage. I think you'll get a lot more in with something like that.

[zewone]

BWALLIN'

Nice job Cheapy, C-list celeb status confirmed.

[Jon Rose]

C-list is a little generous. More people know who Kathy Griffin is.

[yukine]

slightly off sync with the audio, will probably cut out some of the fat and re-upload...if anyone needs it. still watchable

http://rapidshare.com/files/50692553/Global_Loop.mp4.html

Thanks.

Good interview, Cheapy. It's a shame you couldn't talk a bit more but I guess it was to be expected.

[chakan]

Thanks, youruglyclone for uploading the segment.

[AwRy108]

Great job, CheapyD--you're such a whore for media exposure ;-)

...and you almost managed to talk over the douchebag host--good try!

[machoman_93]

Well, if anyone wants the link to watch the loop, click g4tv.com (http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/blog/post/678677/The_Global_Loop.html#comments)

[CYRiX]

Cheapy why the homosexual shirts?

[starman9000]

Well, if anyone wants the link to watch the loop, click g4tv.com (http://www.g4tv.com/attackoftheshow/blog/post/678677/The_Global_Loop.html#comments)


Thanks.

I love how they are trying to get a non-American flavor of what is going on in the world, by talking to 2 Americans and one Brit.

[doctorfaustus]

Good job CheapyD! That shirt made me think you were in hawaii or something.

I'm surprised you didn't give the host crap about that crack he made about Asian drivers.

[Anthem]

http://i10.tinypic.com/52ymk1v.png
"H-he i-interrupted me!"

[sliderwave]

I saw you on Attack of the Show! Keep up the great work!

[zerowing]

Awesome Cheapy I loved it! Though the green screen (I think) looked kinda funky behind ya, but it was still awesome to hear the Cagcast voice on TV.

[Graystone]

Thanks.

I love how they are trying to get a non-American flavor of what is going on in the world, by talking to 2 Americans and one Brit.

Yea, and then he was asking Chris Gore questions about England.

[pete5883]

Cheapy looked 1) scary and 2) like Peter Moore. Weird.

[postaboy]

wooooh, i think CAG just got 4,000 new members in one day. I remember seeing it at 100,000 members yesterday.

[jho]

Nice job Cheapy! Good to see you get some exposure.

[smellytim]

wtf was Chris Gore talking about when he brings up the new Batman when its still a year away for America. It barely even has a teaser out. I think Kevin Perera was looking for something more like Superbad or Rush Hour 3.

Nice job though, Cheapy.

[HeadRusch]

Cheapy, my advice: Next time show up drunk. "Yeah the phones are faster in Japan but...man, dude, what I wanna know is how much GEL they put in your freakin HAIR....you DICK..<hic>.." etc, etc, etc.

Now *thats* entertainment.

[Joon2324]

That was hot. But it was a little weird how he kept calling you David. What's up with that?

[seanr1221]

Just caught it on a repeat. Nice job Cheapy.

[joebomb77]

Nice interview, Kevin is a douche, but not too bad this time, lol. I told my wife: " Hey, that's the guy from the toilet video!" And she STILL didn't care... sad, sad.

[RAMSTORIA]

good thing they got an american in japan to represent japan

[ken12012]

Lookin good CheapyD.

[neudog]

I almost missed this. Went to score Bioshock and was rushing home to catch it. You did a good job Cheapy, but it seemed they didn't give you an equal amount of time.

[djfalcon]

That was hot. But it was a little weird how he kept calling you David. What's up with that?

lol i dont think calling him "cheapy" or "cheap ass gamer guy" would have been too presentable on television.

[Graystone]

That was hot. But it was a little weird how he kept calling you David. What's up with that?

Its weird that he was calling him by his name? alright?

[ogbaka]

nice eps.
but he kept cutting you off, CheapyD

[thagakid]

I saw that Cheapy. It was cool.
