Dreams really do come true! G4 is actually showing the Canadian version of Call For Help in the USA! With the arrogance shown by G4 and Comcast in the beginning of all of this, I have to say this is nothing short of a miracle. Either G4 finally came to their senses and realized people wanted to watch Call For Help in the USA, or their ratings got so bad since they killed Tech TV, that they had no choice but to add Call For Help to their show lineup. Even the average 12-year-old gaming idiot needs someone to get computer help from! Maybe once they realize Call For Help is a success, then maybe they will bring The Screen Savers back to life with Leo and Patrick. Because people really miss them.
