Get an exclusive behind the scenes look at the inner-workings of The Nerdist crew – Chris Hardwick, Jonah Ray & Matt Mira – as they shoot BBC America’s all new Original Special THE NERDIST: YEAR IN REVIEW *** Premiering Saturday Dec 24 at 9/8c*** immediately following DOCTOR WHO: BEST OF THE CHRISTMAS SPECIALS at 8/7c, only on BBC America.
What makes this geeky “best friend” trio work so well? Well, take a host who’s “into math, and being good-looking,” add in two sidekicks who are “obsessed with zombies” and Star Trek, and shake thoroughly in a TARDIS… and, in the bang-on words of Matt Mira, “it’s this nerdy mess of awesomeness!”
The Nerdist: Year In Review is the first of BBC America’s five all new Nerdist Specials based on comedian, writer, Doctor Who fan and web pundit Chris Hardwick’s immensely popular Nerdist podcast, the Internet’s Top Ranked Podcast.
This Christmas Eve Special is a one-hour year-end review where Hardwick and his team of nerd experts review the best of the U.S. and the UK’s top nerd moments, gadgets and superheroes of 2011, and geek-tastic reviews of the year’s best moments from Comic Con and Doctor Who.
PLUS Special guests: NATHAN FILLION (Castle, Firefly), WIL WHEATON (Eureka, Star Trek: The Next Generation) and KUMAIL NANJIANI (Franklin & Bash), and Interviews with DAVID TENNANT (Doctor Who’s 10th Doctor) and SIMON PEGG (Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Shaun of the Dead).
