Sure, the show has an advantage by following the biggest series on television, but let's not diminish the wonderful work that has been done to make Talking Dead what it is.

Chris Hardwick is enough to make the show interesting on his own. The founder of Nerdist has found a great balance of geek fandom and professional wisdom that makes him the best choice for a series like this. His ability to relate to audiences, while still succeeding as a talk show host, is unparalleled. He's a big reason why the show has remained this successful.

Talking Dead is also praised for the great celebreity guests that are featured on the show. In addition to actors from The Walking Dead, many famous fans of the series are always pining for a seat at the table.

This week, Talking Dead finds a great balance of both TWD stars, and other celebs. In addition to two of the starsm who will be featured in this episode, Talking Dead is bringing on the one man who might be nerdier than Chris Hardwick.
