I’m your nerd host, Chris Hardwick

Nerdist is a place where we nerds come together and share the nerdery that we find. It's also my home to various elements of the Nerdist Empire. You might recognize me from TV. You don't realize that's where you know me from, but it is. You think you went to college with me or I look like your cousin's friend, but that is not the case. At one time or another you stumbled upon me on your moving picture box in such cerebral gems as MTV's "Singled Out" and Noam Chomsky's "Shipmates." and so much more...
Say hello to the contributors.

Star Trek was a show about people. There, I’ve said it. Rodenberry’s genius was in creating a science-fiction series that didn’t depend on a big concept (Battlestar Galactica, Space: 1999) a mystery (Lost) or a twist (Twilight Zone). And as such, a lot of the episodes were vehicles for character development. The horta was a plot device; nothing more. But what wonderful interplay between the three leads: Spock’s loyalty for his friend, McCoy’s easy relationship with his Captain; and we learn a lot about Kirk’s style, his humour and tenacity. A really wonderful episode.
if you guys are doing one a week. and doing all 726 episodes… i shall pray for you. because that would take 13 years almost 14… but i have loved all of them so far and cannot wait till the next one! keep up the good work!
