It was announced not too long ago that Attack of the Show and X-Play, G4's two signature and…read moreoriginal, will be ending their runs at the end of year (2012). NBCUniversal has announced that they will be rebranding the network and killing of the networks two big shows is a sign that G4 (as we know it) won't be around much longer. The physical building is where all of G4's operations are housed, along with E! Style and other originally owned Comcast networks. They film Attack of the Show along with X-play here. Those shows aren't open to the public and you pretty much have to know someone working on either show to get you invited. Other than that, there are just a bunch of random cubicles, edit bays and offices that is more similar anyone working in a cube-like environment, other than the often gaming inspired decorated cubes that line the area.

I ran into G4 quite by accident on my cable system and was intrigued that something so ridiculously…read moreamateurish could actually be bankrolled by Comcast and gain an actual channel listing, not to mention funding. G4 is/was (mercifully killed last month by Comcast) a cable channel for gamers offering opinion and insight into the new hardware and software of the moment. This was an offering full of digital earnestness as the male hosts were all bald with thick rimmed glasses (a classic techno-geek tell) and the women were all very loud goths. There are high school AV squads who would never tolerate such stereotyping and unprofessionalism. Audiences were intolerant as well as the channel was habitually mired in last place among the 200+ channels measured by Nielsen drawing 1,000 viewers per hour in prime time. There were probably three times as many viewers watching Romanian table tennis over on the Olympic Channel. I don't believe in euthanasia but Comcast definitely made the right call. Gaming holds no interest for me but I suspect that if you're into Call of Duty inspired slaughter and bloodlust you'd much rather do it than watch three bald idiots talk about it. I'll always be a fan of "what were they thinking" absurdity but you really have to question Comcast's professional judgment for greenlighting this digital roadkill. One anonymous star.

I get so excited whenever I get a chance to go to Los Angeles Center Studios. It's a cool vibe that…read morehas hints of Hollywood nostalgia. To get on the premises you have to be in their system. The security guards an amazing, professional and very nice. Walking towards the doors to the lobby you can see police signs from certain tv shows and films that are produced there. Inside the lobby there's comfortable seating, a television and then it's the concierge desk. If you need the elevator the concierge will help you get to your destination. After talking to the concierge I didn't need the elevators. I just had to walk through the lobby and when you exit you are ground level where there's signs for what production is filming in a specific stage. The stages are huge and it's amazing the creativity some of these tv/film/commercial companies can construct: a mini mansion, basketball court with bleachers and event the inside of a courthouse to name a few. When evening falls you get a beautiful view of downtown Los Angeles with all of the sky scrapers nicely lit up. The inside of main building is very fun with healthy motivation statements in the stairwell, the hallways have fun 1980s style carpeting and the walls/doors are bright and colorful. There's a fun buzz of hard working production staff getting ready for filming and the cool chill ease from the students that are taking classes here. Los Angeles Center Studios has filming opportunities, meetings, fittings and also host social events like Black On The Block. Which is like an independent flea market and networking. You'll probably have to check their website for the dates to play. I really like this venue!

I was onsite for a film production and had a great experience overall. Rehearsals and costume…read morefittings were held in the main building, which is clean, modern, and well-maintained. We did the actual filming at the sound stages, which were spacious and professionally equipped. As a woman working long hours in the DTLA area, I especially appreciated the onsite security services -- they were attentive, well-informed, and knew exactly who was scheduled to be where and when. The parking facility felt secure, and lobby security's control over the main elevators added an extra layer of safety and organization. The vibe of the entire site felt professional and well-run, with a clear focus on keeping things efficient and safe. Would definitely work here again.

Watching the news in TV is a rather rare pleasure for me. Mostly early weekend mornings and maybe…read moreearly evening. When I do, I tend to gravitate toward Channel 7. Love the style - direct, professionally presented, and a pace I can absorb. Some would say slow and boring but I like it. The news tends to be factually reported with what I believe to be little speculation. I seldom see the Channel 7 reports being "walked back" due to factual errors, and often see them expanded to add new information. And then there are the news readers and reporters... very "approachable". Especially love the news team of Dick Gregory and Annabelle Munoz. But let's not forget Johanna Lara... Things I don't like, which may not be unique to Channel 7... the abuse of the term "Breaking News" as a sound bite rather than an alert that some news just broke... and the weather girls who really strain to make our boring weather sound exciting. But overall... an excellent news presentation.

My review got deleted last year by yelp. I posted how uncomfortable and unprofessional Leslie Lopez…read morethe morning weather reporter dressed. I'm not sure why yelp feels like it wasn't my first hand experience when it's on live televised news that I'm watching on my own television. I also noticed, I wasn't the only person who got their negative reviews deleted. I remember this other review regarding the morning weather girls dressing like they are going to a cocktail party. I also remember a review about Leslie Lopez talking to fast and off topic a lot. What happened to all the negative reviews on yelp?
