Nerdist Theater Beyond Wednesdays
Nerdist Theater Beyond Wednesdays
Through the link is a listing of this week Nerdist Theater events. That’s right, there’s more than just “Meltdown” on Wednesdays. In fact, so many people missed out on the amazing Drennon Davis and his Imaginary Radio show last Friday, right before the world was supposed to end.
So, what I’m saying… is maybe you’ll want to check out Harmontown with “Community” creator Dan Harmon or a live recording of the Nerdist Podcast or the amazing open mic hosted by Matt Mira and Paul Cibis or really anything else in the back room of Meltdown Comics that isn’t on a Wednesday.
If you’ve wondered what you’ve been missing at the Re-Animator Musical at the Steve Allen Theater, here’s a live beheading scene.

Here’s an inside look by filmmaker Nathan Grosch, just in case you were wondering how movies are decided, especially by Jerry Bruckheimer (or you haven’t seen this already on Deadline.com).

Chris Hardwick to Develop BBC America Show Based on Nerdist Podcast | THR
Chris Hardwick to Develop BBC America Show Based on Nerdist Podcast | THR
Comedian Chris Hardwick has inked a deal with BBC America to develop a pilot based on his popular Nerdist podcast, it was announced Monday.
The pilot will be a panel talk show hosted by Hardwick. The show will cover all things relative to geek culture from L.A. to London and feature celebrity guests with their own nerd obsessions. Hardwick will serve as an executive producer along with K.P. Anderson (The Soup) and Jay James.
Hardwick has also been tapped to host the network’s Saturday night comedy block, “Ministry of Laughs,” which launches June 18 at 10 p.m. His company, Nerdist Industries, and Comcast Entertainment Studios will produce the “Ministry” pieces and the show.
Hardwick, who is a self-proclaimed Doctor Who fan, has hosted several events for the hit U.K. series. His pilot/special will be a BBC America original program.
I hope Jonah Ray and Matt Mira are involved.
Comedy Nerds Unite!: funny females: comedienne or comedian?
Comedy Nerds Unite!: funny females: comedienne or comedian?
posted by CNU Editor Danielle
I remember when I was first getting into comedy in the early 2000’s hearing the term “comedienne” in reference to female comedians a lot. I somewhat enjoyed the term and started using that word to describe what I wanted to be when I grew up.
a few years back (I…
Whether “comedian” or “comedienne” is used should have little significance other than the person in question should be funny enough to have a job description of making people laugh. Just like Splitsider is saying that Bridesmaids is funny without the need of any qualifiers, the distinction of whether you’re female or male shouldn’t matter as long as you’re hilarious on a consistent basis.
That’s actually the bigger debate: What do you need to do to actually be called a comedian, comedienne, comic, stand up, comedic performer, funny person, etc.?
