As some of you will be aware...
the popular gaming show on abc2 Good game has recently destroyed the show by replacing our fav host junglist with a female called hex...

This is an outrage!... nothing against the new host but abc's excuse of needing 2 freshen the show up is bollocks... we need to make a stand...

PLZ go to www.savejunglist.com to help in the fight to save Junglist! :eek:

lol

talk about overreacting. Kicking out Junglist sucks balls but the show is hardly ruined and Hex is a fine host.

I've only seen the show a handful of times, and I'm surprised it's still going with or without host changes...

For my care factor, I give this news - 2 rubber chickens.

Haha, turns out Hex is the ex-girlfriend of one of my uni mates. I don't think they speak to each other anymore though :p

Haven't watched this show in ages and now that a female host is on I might watch it just to see how she goes.

I watched it online, and Hex is quite a bit more appealing that an American guy... :D

I might have to award her a few more rubber chickens. :rolleyes:

From memory the first series had a different presenter as well. Bajo replaced him!!

Just watched it on iView. I think i like Hex better than the other guy as well. Also Bajo seems to fidget a lot when he's not talking. It's like he has a nervous tick.

Not a bad little show.

ok ok... possibly a bit of an over reaction, but bajo and junglist are both funny as... and I'm sorta a fan... i mean... not the worst of ideas to change... but it worked well as it was... there's a lot of people who are hardcore fighting 2 get him back on the show... I'm not going nuts but i have signed a petition or two.

I got the impression while watching the episode [well, they said it...], that Junglist voluntarily took on a "behind the scenes" role on the show. Sounds like the fan801s can kick and scream all they like, it appears to be his own choice. Where I found the show a bit bland before, at least now they are making it more entertaning [for Hex's first episode at least]. Even the reviews seemed more personal and indepth than before.

Definitely wasn't voluntary- he was given the option of saying goodbye but refused, saying that he didn't want to give the impression he quit. Have a read of this (http://www.kotaku.com.au/2009/10/good-game-explains-why-junglist-was-axed/) (not my original source though).

Someones telling porkies: "...the decision to take Junglist off air was not forced upon us by ABC Management and it’s one that is fully supported by all the GG team.”

Oh well, sux to be a TV show host then...

if you read through the rest of it... it explains that wasn't the case...

Yeah, I read through it, and I'm suggesting that ABC is telling porkies. Hence why I quoted them when I made that remark... :rolleyes:

Anyhow, I've lost a lot of respect for Baj. But Hex is still cutsiepoo. :)

ABC: iiiiiiiiieeeeeeEEEEEEEEE!!!!!one111 oink! :mad:

Junglist will get a show on cable or SBS or big spot in a PC magazine [do ppl still buy magazines???]. He'll be alright.

Hex FTW :p
