Today Yesterday Half an hour ago was G4's fifth birthday. The staff of Destructoid would like to wish the entire network a happy birthday, but unfortunately, they were in talks to merge with The FOOD Network and The Golf Channel, and we couldn't get a hold of them.

In honor of their anniversary, we bring you the above clip. Not only is it indicative of the fantastic programming they've been spraying all over the mouths and chins of their viewers for the past five years, it also scares off feral dogs.

Happy birthday G4! 

[Props to KnuxSonic for reminding us of this, and helping us pick out some roses for Mr. Sessler.]

G4's existence as of now isn't exactly something to celebrate...

I miss the golden days of G4, it went to the shitter the second they merged with TechTV and started trying to be some MTV/SpikeTV clone

Gosh, has it been that long since they ruined and destroyed TechTV? Bravo G4, your tremendous vacuum of suck has been a blight on the basic cable landscape. Always the spasmodic bastard of cable, you've changed your focus and core values of your channel ever 8-9 months, shedding every decent show you produce, yet somehow keeping Adam Sessler employed. Ever since the take over, Channel 354 on my DTV box has gone unused.

Thanks, TechTVG4TVshittySpikeTVripoffTV!

We'll see you in 10 years, after you merge with E! and start reporting on the bathing habits of Kevin Federline.

Wait a minute, G4 merging with Food Network and Golf Channel? That could possibly be the greatest news ever! Nobody knows how to make a channel about a hobby better than Food Network!

TechTv...I remember that great channel. Call for Help with Leo was my favorite show. Why did G4 suck? It should have been so awesome. God...I hate Adam Sessler or howver you spell that moron's name.

A certain blogger has a certain thing for a certain cable tv network!

I dunno, this site being "edited for and by hardcore gamers" wishing a happy birthday to a station generally loathed by the hardcore gamer doesn't add up.

When G4 first hit the airwaves, I used to watch it all the time. Somewhere down the line, they forgot that it's a video game channel, and started showing everything but video game related content. Needless to say, the station is a shell of it's former self.

Naysayers may criticise the channel for being cheezy since it's inception, but there were some good shows on there to be found.

hmm...it's a touchy area. I'm sure the people behind the scenes that aren't corporate shills are just as unhappy with the direction G4 has taken now just as those of us who miss the salad days of the network. They also have just as much say as you or I do in what goes on. But what else is like it on TV? I'll sure take G4 over Spike TV's joke of a VG Awards show.

Why kiss their asses? I know some of the guys get to be on AOTS and shit, but c'mon, it's not like anyone watches that channel anyway.
