Great idea for a show
Maniac-93 December 2012
When you have one of your favorite shows that after each episode you need to discuss or get behind the scenes info on what happened in the storyline this is the show for you. The show is hosted by Chris Hardwick and then usually has 2 guests whether if it's cast members, crew or one of the producers in addition to having some of the guests being a celebrity who's just a big fan of the show. I wish that shows like Sons of Anarchy would follow suit with a similar idea. It's especially a good thing when it's an episode when one of the cast members from The Walking Dead let them say good bye to the fans. Granted it has to be on a network like AMC or a similar cable channel that has more air time to kill, not that it would ever happen on network TV but they don't have the time slot freedom that basic cable channels have.

Great
M-bags23 November 2013
It's just the type of show that I need after watching The Walking Dead because they analyze and answer questions that fans have through Facebook, the website, and studio audience. Chris Hardwick is a great host because he brings a comedic relief from the stress the show can have on you. Bringing in the producers, and cast gives great info although they don't give up information. Only thing I would like to see is less super fan celebrity guests and instead actors from the show and people who have more a connection. I watch every Sunday and will continue to do so. The time change from the 30 minute broadcast to the one hour gives more time to discuss what has happened on The Walking Dead.

Great Commentary
dap_12522 June 2019
Love the interviews with the cast and crew. Chris always makes me laugh so hard. I don't know who these people are leaving those negative comments but ignore them. This show is well worth watching.

Used to be good

But now it is to much talk and marketing from Chris Hardwick. Wish he would shut up!

The Most Unnecessary Show on TV
cgriglack29 February 2016
Talking Dead is basically an extended TV guide summary and review but with an annoying host and, for some unknown reason, unrelated celebrity guests who show up to talk about a show they don't work on. Even if you can stomach Hardwick's personality, this show brings nothing of value to the table. If you're able to follow the simple plot of The Walking Dead, then there's no need to watch any part of Talking Dead unless you enjoy listening to random people talk about a show they like. Instead of watching this show, you can actually just listen in on your co-workers discussing TWD in the breakroom but not interact with them at all and you'll get the same experience. That is, unless your co-workers have any dissenting opinions about the direction the show is going, because Talking Dead doesn't feature a single piece of criticism, every episode is a full hour (minus commercials) of praise for TWD.

Solid talk show
UniqueParticle4 May 2022
I fairly enjoy the guests even though some don't make sense. The trivia, exciting music, entertaining and relaxing I love a lot of it! I partly get annoyed with Chris Hardwick he's cool for a bulk of the time; it's great too when he was on House of 1000 corpses and had a disturbing demise. Talking Dead got some bashful reviews that it didn't deserve!

Insightful...Behind the scene information
zac-666794 December 2017
This show gives insightful information on "The Walking Dead" from celebrity guests, which are frequently the actors from "The Walking Dead" show itself. It gives viewers a chance to see how others have interpreted the show, enlighten you on things you may have overlooked and a behind the scene look, that fans just love to see. They also have little quizzes about the nights episode and a tribute to those killed off. I find it fun to watch and I usually come away with informative information about the show, that I didn't have before.

Terrible host
jpcjcpd21 March 2022
Why does he always sound like he is on the verge or tears? His voice is whiny and he is over enthusiastic about everything. He ruins any of the discussions about the show with inane questions and his mindless blathering.

It could be worth the time if you had someone with actual knowledge of the comic and lore of show running it. At this point anyone other than Chris Hardwick would be an improvement.

Yvette Brown? No thanks!!
alchemist-8184815 July 2018
I enjoyed Chris Hardwicke-always watched the show after The Walking Dead. BUT- I'm disgusted to see another casualty of accusations-unfounded accusations-now causing problems for someone who is probably innocent.

This is a sickening witch hunt. I don't like Yvette Nicole Brown, and if she's replacing anyone, I won't be watching.

Anyone else who feels deeply offended by this witch hunt? Write your disapproval-and switch off. The producers will get the idea when everyone does that.

This Show Is A Waste of An Hour
skywalkerr-2388611 September 2017
The walking Dead has gone into the crapper. Ever since Neagan came on, this show isn't about Zombies anymore. This show doesn't tell us anything worth listening to. Talking about what we just saw is a waste of time. Instead of being praised about the crap they just showed us, the writers should be told to go back to the basics of survival in a world of walking dead. Fighting other humans isn't any different than what we see in the present world. Erase the last 3 seasons & go back to the show that a lot of us liked. A lot of people I know have given up on the Walking Dead & none of them watch this talk show. Chris Hardwick is boring & tells us only what the writers want us to know. Watching this show is a dry as watching any of those useless daytime talk shows. If you have no life & nothing else meaningful to do with your time, than maybe your a zombie. I see Hardwick on a lot of shows & everyone of them is dry & boring. Take this show off & use the money spent on it to make the Walking Dead worth watching. Bring back the old Walking Dead story lines & dump Hardwick.

awful show, just awful
gobucks78924 February 2014
This show is awful. Chris Hardwick has to be one of the most annoying people on TV. His jokes and nervous demeanor are very annoying.. he's just unfunny. I can't believe he gets paid to sit on a couch and banter on for one hour about absolutely nothing. I like the show a great deal, but this "analysis" is vacuous. "So what would you do if there was a zombie apocalypse??" Think of those questions, asked for an hour straight. Another thing: all the actors and Hardwick do is kiss the directors and writers ass for 1 hour instead of actually talking about the show and what could or has happened. It's tiresome. It's just painful to see Hardwick nervously push forward through 1 hour of such a flop of a show.

These shows are overrun by double the amount of seasons plus there's too many spin offs !
ThomasJ_912018 April 2022
Then you have a talk show about the garbage they've turned Walking Dead into , was good until season 4 and it definitely didn't need a bunch of crossover spin offs on the ruined original show!

Best show on t.v.
ernestojow9 October 2019
Talking Dead is groundbreaking t.v. Never has there been a talk show dedicated to a series. Its so good, it's surpassed the Walking Dead and has become the better show. I find there's no reason to watch both shows and now only watch Talking Dead. Every storyline is discussed in great detail by the guests. Hardwick is a superb host and is more likeable than most of the current cast of TWD.

Worst parody ever
oliver-545-7850863 December 2012
I'm a big fan of "Walkin Dead" and this commentary is so awful. It's worse than any yo mama joke I can come up with. The commentary is told as an almost a a parody to the show and really takes away from the show all together. The host is energetically upbeat and comedic in it's summary of what's happened. A serious commentary would be so much better. If nothing else get rid of the E entertainment superficiality. Furthermore this site has required a minimum of 10 lines to be able to leave a review of a show and in my opinion that's just another way of not letting someone contribute to the true feed back on the television show.

Hardwick Is A Leech
factor4014 October 2022
Chris Hardwick is a TV leech, plain and simple. He has moved from one leechy opportunity to another for most of his career. He couldn't hack it as an actor or a comedian so he for the last possible option...a talkshow host.

His stints on MTV and G4TV were full of the same meaningless stupidity. He will tell bad jokes, act like he cares and then slither out the door. The way he attached himself to The Walking Dead was one thing, but then he had to worm his way into Breaking Bad as well. He always wanted to be one of the cool kids and, in classic leech fashion, he attached his suckers to everything he could to sustain his leech life.

Leech...

Miss this show
gloomsmamma25 March 2024
I miss this show so much, I miss the behind the scenes, the interaction between Chris Hardwick and anyone he had on, the inside scoop on The Walking Dead, the chance to see my favorite characters outside of the show, their real fashion sense, accents, humor, I even miss the music. I've been looking for information as to if or when it's coming back and have found conflicting information. I'm watching both new Dead series' and with both I feel there's missed opportunities for the Talking Dead franchise. I saw the after show for the Daryl Dixon series, I didn't like it. Bottom line, both new Walking Dead series is missing something integral, Talking Dead with Chris Hardwick. I've found myself not understanding something in the series and thinking to myself, well, I'll just wait for Talking Dead after this to see what's going on, and, no Talking Dead. I miss this show.

Really?
devildogz-0371721 February 2022
There is NO reason Yvette Nicole Brown is constantly on the talking Dead any episode of The talking Dead that she is in I will not watch she has no part of the TWD and brings NOTHING to the after show.
