G4 Begins Serving 'Web Soup'
G4 will begin ladling out new series Web Soup next month.
Host Chris Hardwick offers a fresh look at the best - and worst - moments from the week's Internet mayhem and presents topical Web videos and viral classics with sarcastic tongue-in-cheek commentary. Web Soup, from the producers of E!'s The Soup, is set to debut June 7 at 9 p.m. (ET/PT) on G4.
Each episode will be divided into themed segments, including "The Daily Upload," "This Week in FAIL" and "Things You Can't Un-See," depicting the week's most shocking and side-splitting viral videos. In addition, viewers get to know recurring characters who stop by to add to the fun as Hardwick basks in the glory of the Web's finest productions.
"G4 viewers are web-obsessed and this show brings the Internet to television in a way that's edgy and fun," said G4 president Neal Tiles in a statement. "Not only can Chris Hardwick dole out hilarious off-the-cuff commentary, he also possesses a deep knowledge of digital culture, which makes him the ideal host for Web Soup. We are excited to put G4's spin on this popular franchise."
