The Screen Savers is an American television program dedicated to computers, technology, and gadgets that aired on ZDTV (later rebranded as TechTV) from 1998 to 2005. The program provided viewers with practical tech tips, news updates, gadget reviews, and interactive segments like call-ins and modding demonstrations.

The program originally featured host Leo Laporte alongside co-host Kate Botello. In April 2000, Botello departed to co-host GameSpot TV, and Patrick Norton joined Laporte as co-host. Following the 2004 merger of TechTV with Comcast-owned G4, a gaming-focused channel, the show's format shifted toward pop culture and video games, with Kevin Rose and Alex Albrecht taking over as hosts in late 2004. The series concluded on March 18, 2005, as part of broader changes from the merger, which prioritized gaming content and led to the rebranding of The Screen Savers into Attack of the Show! on the newly formed G4techTV.

In 2015, Laporte revived the concept as The New Screen Savers, an hour-long variety show on his online TWiT.tv network, featuring rotating co-hosts such as Megan Morrone, Jason Howell, and Robert Ballecer, along with guest appearances from original cast members Norton and Botello. The revival premiered on May 2, 2015, and ran for three seasons, concluding in December 2018.
