The Lab with Leo Laporte starts taping in Vancouver today. 15 shows are being taped from now till Friday and you can catch a shot of the studio webcam at labwithleo.com during taping. The first show will air on G4 TechTV on April 22/07 as a replacement to Call For Help which concluded in January.
This channel is flying fast downhill. The only shows that get new episodes are Attack of the show and X-play everything else is repeats. they need to either sell off the channel to someone who wants it or they need to pull there act together because im sure they are loosing subscrbers by the thousands right now.
What has replaced TechTV for me is all of the spin offs that were mentioned earlier in this thread. Systm, DL.TV,tekzilla, the totally rad show and soon Twit Live. They are all doing their video podcasts in HD (h.264) I have Itunes running on my HTPC and always have a couple of shows ready to watch. Basically the same crew from the old TechTV but now in HD!!
Rumours continue to fly around the Rogers/City empire in Toronto that Leo will get another crack at televison through City Tv. Maybe Mr. Ted likes older people....although Peter Silverman did not survive. As you know the internet lady was dumped with a few hours notice earlier this year. Lets wait and see.
Yes, from some of the comments Leo has made, I don't think he'd be in a rush to make another show in Canada.. he doesn't want to travel and be away from home as much.
Maybe if he could produce the show himself in his TwiT Live studio...?
