Synopsis

Icons was a documentary TV show on G4 that originally focused on significant people, companies, products, history, and milestones in world of video games. It was relaunched in 2006 and focused entirely on pop culture. It was cancelled soon afterwards. On May 10, 2006, it was announced that Icons was relaunching on June 3 with an episode focusing on J.J. Abrams. The show will feature a broader scope on things and people "men 18–34 care about, admire and emulate." Future episodes would focus on Marc Ecko, The Onion, and Family Guy. This change in format had been suspected, due to the recent episodes about George A. Romero, Frank Miller and the history of the King Kong franchise. The classic video game themed episodes continued to air on the network sporadically until 2008, under the new name of Game Makers.

BootDigest Such a frustrating disappointment
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Loui Blair It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.
Terryfan Icons is a show that profiles video games.I always love video games and this is a show that would shows how far video games have come.ICONS is one show that would give fans information and the history of their favorite games.Icons would get people who work with video games or people who write about video games to talk about the games the show is talking about.ICONS would talk about a video game series or a game genre.ICONS is great show to learn about how a video game became so successful.The show is very good and it's cool to see some great games on the show.Icons is so well done.ICONS show everybody how video games are made and the stories on how well the games did.Overall, If you ever worried how video games are made and how well the games did, then ICONS is a show that is worth watching.ICONS is fun and great.
patrick_dunne Icons is shown on G4TV (136 for me) and usually airs in the morning.Each episode is a documentary of a big title in video games. Usually it's about a series (Mortal Kombat, Final Fantasy, Dead or Alive, etc) but it sometimes is about a console or a company or something else. They shows the good and bad times in the history with occasional interviews and opinions. Every episode is as informative and interesting as the next. For example, did you know that there was a console that played arcade games and was sold at $600! (Of course, you had to buy the games, which were sold at $300.)If you love video games, this is your type of show!Feel free to send me a Private Message regarding this comment.
