Blister

Coming attactions and previews made up the bulk of Blister, hosted by Bill Sindelar. For the most part, Blister featured game trailers and videos narrated by Sindelar in the style of game's main character. The show was also sprinkled with interviews from developers and industry insiders and occasionally some on-location action. Blister goes down in G4 lore as the first show to ever air on the network. The show aired for roughly a year and half before getting cancelled due to budget problems in January of 2004, ironicly just after a host chat with Sindelar on G4's IRC chat. The show's last episode, "Skunk'd" was a paradoy of the (at the time) also ending MTV show "Punk'd", however G4 viewers would soon find out that Blister's cancellation was no joke. Soon after another popular G4 show Portal was also cancelled.
