Chris Hardwick and Comedy Central Agree to End @midnight at 600 Episodes
Yes, @midnight has made it to 600 episodes. In its time, it has made an indelible mark on Twitter with #HashtagWars, influenced the direction of game shows in the age of the Internet, and highlighted many great comedians by giving their very first TV appearance.
Alas, both network and host agree that the comedy game show has run its course leaving an open slot for Comedy Central up at midnight after the show’s final week on July 31st.
There isn’t any official word on what might take that slot as of yet, though we hope it’ll be a bit of departure from the pairing of The Daily Show with Trevor Noah and Jordan Klepper’s new show at 11PM and 11:30PM.
