I see on wikipedia that that channel still exists. I can't even get that channel in my area anymore. All the major providers have dropped that channel, and it seems like no one will want to renew with G4 when their contracts are up. And if the channel hasn't lost any money, they certainly at least aren't making much. Most networks who have come to this stage have shut down long before this, so why not G4?
Why the hell is that lame network G4 still around?

I know that much. But why wait? The ratings now are even worse than before. Just put the network out of its misery.
money, they're still getting money from the cable systems where they have active carriage agreements. As long as they put something up, the systems have to continue to pay for it, even if no one watches.
Comcast officially killed it in December, that is also when Cox pulled it from their lineup. They really botched this too, it was supposed to turn into Esquire last spring, that got delayed and then they decided to spin off Style as it had more carriage agreements.
