About

Nostalgia Critic (abbreviated to NC, often known simply as the Critic) is a film review web series and the name of the Internet personality portrayed by comedian Doug Walker. The series launched on YouTube in 2007, but moved to Walker's website, That Guy with the Glasses. Since 2015, episodes – both new and old – have been uploaded to TGWTG's new YouTube channel, Channel Awesome, that has nearly 100,000,000 total views.

Currently, there are more than 300 episodes.

"Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic
I remember it so you don't have to."
—Nostalgia Critic

History

The first episode of Nostalgia Critic was about Michael Bay's film Transformers and it was uploaded to YouTube in July 3, 2007. (Shown below.)

In 2008, YouTube had removed several episodes due to copyright infringements, and Doug Walker's channel got suspended. Following this, he moved all his videos to ThatGuywiththeGlasses.com, which has been rebranded as ChannelAwesome.com.

In September 2012, it was announced that Nostalgia Critic would "retire"; however, just a few months later, in January 2013, Doug Walker would upload a short sketch titled "Review Must Go On" (shown below), and it was announced that Nostalgia Critic is back.
