Leo’s been fueling the rumor mill for a while now, and he’s been talking about how he has a big announcement that he has to wait for a press release to talk about, but that hasn’t stopped the rumors from flying.
Some people think that it means another network has picked up Call For Help for air in the US. Others think that Leo’s worked out an IPTV subscription system so CfH can be downloaded in the US. Others, and this seems to be the most popular rumor, believe that CfH is being picked up in the US….by G4 Television. ::gasp!::
Well, I have to admit, I staved off the whole rumor bit and promised not to make an announcement until Leo did, but my feelings about the whole event lean that way-that G4 is going to pick up Call for Help. And a number of people, including G4 employees and forum admins, seem to agree:

This is VERY hopeful news, but we’ve all been dissapointed before, so I’ll wait for the official word, but hey! Here’s rooting for CfH in the US again!

At this point, I don’t even care anymore. The damage has been done. Forget the fact that Comcast basically raped TechTV. Focus on the fact that Comcast doesn’t seem to know whether it wants G4 to be agaming network, a tech network or a mix of both.
The only show I watch on G4 is X-Play, and that’s only because Morgan Webb is easy on the eyes. I doubt I could even muster up the energy to watch CFH even if it returned, especially on G4. Most assuredly it’s going to be on some ghetto timeslot anyway.
Listen very, very closely to to the TWIT podcast minute 69:15. While Leo uses two sentences here, he is giving us a HUGE clue if you listen to him. He had to be vague to not screw this up since the PR is not out yet. Trust me on this. ;o)
