We like G4's "Attack of the Show" for lots of reasons: they are a great news source, the comedy is timely and well-written, their "Epic April" campaign, and tonight they are offering a pretty amazing prize package: a VIP trip to attend Comic-Con in San Diego and $20,000. You'll have to watch the show (7pm) to get the details.

We're sad to learn of the cancellation of "The Sarah Silverman Program". We always thought that the combination of Silverman with her sister Laura, and the "gay couple" played by Brian Posehn and Steve Agee was a winning one and we regularly featured it here. Let's not forget it just got an Emmy nomination last year, we hope to see all these players back on the tube again soon.
