Nerdist was started by Chris Hardwick and has grown to be a many headed beast.

Video Exchange w/ Matt Smith, Karen Gillan & Arthur Darvill

by on April 20, 2011

Words not sufficient for brain to express joy-splosion! Words weird come out brain now. Suffice it to say that this li’l Who fan’s dreams have become infinitely more fulfilled now.

WAAAAAAAAATCH…

Then listen to “Whoptopia” the special “Who & A” chat with Steven Moffat and the cast of Doctor Who this Friday on the Nerdist Podcast! There are NO SPOILERS! Just fan generated Qs & As!!!

Good prep for the series 6 premiere of Doctor Who, Saturday April 23rd at 9/8C on BBC America.

And just to let the 1000 Person Orchestra from Boston know, the cast was quite pleased with your performance! I watched it with them (which I only felt QUITE weird about). Well done, young Whovians!!!

Also, here’s the 8-bit Doctor Who theme!

  1. THIS IS AWESOME!! Chris you give nerds a great name. And you give Doctor Who fans like myself and even better name!!

  2. I would have seriously died. They’re freaking amazing. And your reply was epic as well!

  4. Can you make the song available for us to download?
    The real intro music is my ringtone now, but I’d much rather have this version.

  6. Mutual admiration — the greatest gift any little nerd could ever receive! Awesome attracts awesome, my friend! <3

  8. Didn’t think I could be more excited for series 6 of Doctor Who, but I was wrong. This is SO AWESOME. Thanks for sharing!!

  9. Brilliant, both of the videos. I love my bunch of nerds, and I am proud to be one, too! :-)

  10. Chris, I think I love you!

    What a fun video exchange, and so looking forward to the Podcast!

    Thanks for being a great Whovian representative!

  12. Chris,
    I’ve been listening to your podcast since you Matt on a while ago. I caught the “Who bug” when I was living in England a few years.
    The series restarted then and I didn’t know what all the fuss was about (it never ran in Germany), so got curious and decided to check it out.
    And, of course, got hooked immediately – especially when Tennant took over….
    Long story longer: Matt brought me to your podcast and I worked my way back through all of it since then.
    I am so glad you’re spreading the word stateside – it deserves all the love it can get – I am giving away DVDs here in Germany to do my bit. :-)

    Can’t wait for your podcast of the panel and thanks for being a fellow “Whovian”!!!

  13. I should add a “had” an “ago” and start re-reading posts before hitting “submit”…*blush*

  14. Adorableness all around. And it sounds like Karen’s got some operatic pipes on her…

  15. Way too freaking awesome!!! Whovian in the house. I am so ready for that season premiere. Oh and the Nathan Fillion Podcast…it’s like you want me to be a lifetime Hardwick fan.

  18. Great comeback… However, I have to pull you up over the line ‘Two Brits and a Scot!!!’

    Being Scottish is not mutually exclusive with being British.

    It’s kinda like me saying two Americans and a Texan, as if Texans somehow aren’t.

  22. Chris, your Who-obsession is nothing short of awesome. Thanks for making us nerds feel unashamed for loving the Doctor. Keep up the good work!

  25. Chris!!!!you are the luckiest whovian on the face of the planet ! I’m jealous that you get to talk with the cast from Doctor Who, a chance that could only come once in a lifetime. And to get an email from them singing just adds the awesomeness of this!!!

  34. Sweet Time Lord, Chris! I don’t think you can get any cooler these days. This is fantastic and I can’t wait to here the Q&A.

  35. this makes me wish i were cool enough for arthur, matt, and karen to make me a video and call me cool. (my mom lied to me about being cool, i knew it.) luckily, i’m seeing my therapist later today!

  36. That was really cool. When I heard about it on the podcast, I was really hoping you might post it. Thanks for making my afternoon.

  37. Sweet tap dancing hezues!! That f@&$king rules!! Thanks so much Chris for sharing!! Can’t wait to hear the podcast Friday and check out the new Dr Who sat!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  39. Long live Chris Hardwick! Thank you for making me totally smile with GLEE! And kudos to Karen and the Babes….how I love them all!!!!

  42. I am so proud! I was in the Na Na Na Na side of the chris hardwich 1000 person orchestra. Chris, did you put your fleshy parts on them, in New York!? Is that weird? Nevermind! XOXOXO

  43. I am so proud! I was in the Na Na Na Na side of the chris hardwick 1000 person orchestra. Chris, did you put your fleshy parts on them, in New York!? Is that weird? Nevermind! XOXOXO

  45. wow wow wow!! That was INcrediBALLS!!! I became a BIG Dr. Who fan about a year ago. I say that b/c I figure Hardwick’s at LEAST 1000x that– so, by the transitive property, I figure his excitement was easily 1000x that as well. #boNERD!!

  46. WHOA. I just had a major Whogasm. I’m never cleaning it up though. I’m so excited to hear the panel!

    p.s.

    There’s a Rose Tyler cutout on my campus. I freaked and took a picture with it. I win. WIN, I SAY!

  47. I am so happy i was at that show it was amazing chris and I look forward as we count down to episode 100. Do you want some type of cake for that show?

  50. Hey guys I’m trying to get into Dr Who but where should I start?
    Do I have to watch every series to get into it and understand it?
