Cable network G4 has picked up the shared cable rights to Fox's veteran series Cops, distributed by Twentieth Television. G4 will share Cops with Court TV, tho we're talking about different episodes. G4 has picked up 160 episodes of Cops, which it will air 6x a day beginning in either December or January, including two daily episodes in primetime. According to Variety, G4 has signed a three year deal, at $100k per episode. G4 has beefed up its programming of syndicated series of late, with the acquisitions of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and off-net rights to The Man Show and Arrested Development.
What? No, really. What? Okay, you got The Man Show because since you're a video game/technology network, your demographics skews towards males. Fine. You got Star Trek, because despite putting down anime as for losers and nerds, sci-fi is awesome. Fine. You got Arrested Development because it's a critically acclaimed show and you want to boost your audience. Whatevs. But COPS? Seriously? Explain that one to me, please. You better not marathon that shit on the weekends when I watch X-Play.

All five episodes from season one of the MTV cult classic The State will be digitally remastered and available for purchase at the iTunes Store starting September 26 for $1.99 each. Originally airing in the 1990s and running for three seasons, The State was one of MTV's first sketch comedies targeting Generation X.
But will it be on DVD, you jackasses?
