G4 was recently supposed to be rebranded as the Esquire Network but then NBC Universal changed it's mind rebranded the Style Network instead. G4 fans got a little happy because it meant that even though there was no new programming being produced for G4, that it was still here to stay.
Well.....now that isn't the case. G4 will cease to exist on October 10th, 2013 according to a filing made by Cablevision to the state of Connecticut. I got the tip from the forums at the506.com and a user by the name "Skeet284" who provided this link here.
Here is what Cablevision said:
Effective Thursday, October 10, 2013, NBC Universal will cease to air G4 in both standard definition
and high definition, channels 175 and 786 respectively, in Connecticut. G4 is geared primarily toward
young male adult viewers and originally focused on the world of video games, before transitioning to
a more general entertainment format.
Time Warner Cable has already dropped G4.
