I could deal with him as the host of The Talking Dead. One hour a week- fine. But now, he seems to be everywhere. He's in an annoying commercial before every video I go to watch on youtube. I'll be flipping through channels at night and he's hosting some game show or doing stand up. Then he'll be on some other show talking about his blog. Go away, dude.

Who the hell gave this guy a second shot at fame? I thought he was gone forever when Singled Out was canceled.

of all the bullshite people on tv to get upset about, i think chris hardwick would probably be at the bottom of my list. you've got people like kardashians and bachelorettes who contribute nothing, and you're upset about a guy working for a living. idk man, can't get on board with this.

Kardashians aren't in ads before every you tube video.

His recent stand-up stuff is really good. The only reason i hear that is by listening to a comedy station on satellite radio. The only other place I see him is in the xfinity ad.

I'd rather he be overexposed rather than another Kardashian-type person.


EDIT: I'm thinkin' like link, apparently.

I can honestly say I had no clue who you were even talking about until the singled out pic... Haven't seen him since those days.

You sir, watch wayyyyyy too much tv it appears.

He has several different shows and they all just kind of come on after you've left the tv on and aren't really paying attention

With all of the AMC shows that he's affiliated with, he's a steady fixture on their Sunday night line up. If you're a steady watcher of AMC and Comedy Central I could see getting sick of him.

I tired of his "Talkin'" shows pretty quickly. He's good in small doses. I could handle his Nerdist show on BBC America. Once he was on AMC after every decent show I got overexposed pretty quickly.

Honestly didn't know who you were talking about until I saw Singled Out in your post.

He's had the Midnight. show longer than the Talking Dead show.

Dude is pretty cool. You just sound jealous.

Yep, I can't stand the "Talking" shows. Too many shows. We don't need an after show for every fricking AMC show.

That's also caused BBC America to start a similar show after Orphan Black. And you freaking know there's going to be a Doctor Who version when that comes back in 2017. (Although there may be issues with the fact that's a British based show. Can't imagine Peter Capaldi will travel to the U.S. for 12 straight weeks of "Who's Talking".)

I think that is just him, right place at the right time. I only knew of from the Talking Dead. Most Walking Dead fans know this.
