Wasn't Morgan like the second female co-host for X-Play? And didn't she leave and another chick came on until it died? Like Morgan was just the longest lasting co-host with Adam right?
Back in the earliest years when X-play was originally, Gamespot Tv, long before I watched it, Adam did host with some broad name Lauren Felder. Toward the end of its time as Gamsepot TV, somewhere in 2000, Kate Botello, who had originally been the co-host of
The Screen Savers alongside Leo Laporte (in fact, they were the most popular personalities on TechTv at the time), was brought in to co-host with Adam. The following year, the show dropped the Gamespot moniker and became Extended play. Its during this era I first started watching the show, though I barely remember that time, besides the episode she announced she was leaving the show and moving to New York. That was in 2002, so her time on the show was actually relatively short. Adam then hosted the show on his own till April 2003, when the show became X-play. It should be noted that I remember this era relatively well, and it was a far cry from what the show ultimately became; it was down to Earth, there were no cringy skits or sophomoric humor, the gratuitous swearing and stupid levels of edginess were nonexistent, and Adam was likable as a solitary host merely rating games for his audience.
When the show became X-play, that's when Morgan Webb came on (she had also formerly been on
The Screen Savers and was also on
Call for Help), and the show slowly morphed into the weird little thing it eventually became. This transformation only got worse when Comcast bought TechTv and merged it with G4, presaging the slow downfall of the network. Kristin Adams (at the time Kristin Holt) was brought on to do cheat code segments in 2008 after leaving her own show,
Cheat!, which was wound down soon afterwards. She would occasionally host the show and stick around for the remainder of its run. Its also around this time that the show got away from just being about gaming reviews. Sessler finally left the show, and the network in 2012, from what I can remember over some kind of pay dispute. From then on, Morgan co-hosted the show with Blair Herter (from
Attack of the Show), with Kristin and Herter's wife, Jessica Chobot, serving as co-hosts and correspondents (Tiffany Smith, Alex Sim-Wise and Joel Gourdin had all served as correspondents for the show at one point in its run or another). This final iteration of the show didn't last long, as it was canned in January the next year. G4 limped along until 2014 when they canned the whole network.
