''Nostalgia Critic'' is an American comedy webseries created, written, edited, and performed by Doug Walker. The series initially launched on YouTube in July 2007 before moving to Walker's own site That Guy with the Glasses, then to Channel Awesome. The show follows Walker as the titular Nostalgia Critic, a cynical, bittersweet, and sardonic film critic who reviews films and television shows from his childhood and recent past, usually with comically exaggerated rage. The show often alternates the Critic's angry rants and juvenile humor with legitimate analysis of the episode's subject. Walker briefly retired the series in August 2012 to work on other projects, even writing the character out of existence in the Channel Awesome film ''To Boldly Flee''. However, on January 23, 2013, Walker announced the show's imminent return in a narrative video called "The Review Must Go On".〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Review Must Go On )〕 The show subsequently returned with a more narrative and sketch-driven sixth season, beginning on February 5, 2013 with a review of ''The Odd Life of Timothy Green''. ==History== The series was initially launched on YouTube in July 2007 but episodes were frequently removed by the website following complaints of copyright infringement. In April 2008 the videos were removed from YouTube but an arrangement between the company and content host Blip in 2009 resulted in them being featured on YouTube once more. The announcement of a spin-off, called ''The Nostalgia Chick'', was created in "The Search for the Nostalgia Chick" (August 10, 2008). The concept was for a female host to review female-targeted "nostalgic" films and television.〔 ((iTunes ))〕 The contest ended in a three-way tie between Lindsay Ellis (who reviewed Disney's ''Pocahontas''), Krissy Diggs (who reviewed ''Sailor Moon''), and Kaylyn Dicksion (who reviewed ''The Last Unicorn''). The competition was won by Ellis, then using the name "The Dudette", as announced on the site, "Nostalgia Chick Winner!" (September 15, 2008).〔 Diggs and Dicksion would still join That Guy with the Glasses as That Chick with the Goggles and Marzgurl respectively. On September 14, 2012, Walker announced the retirement of ''Nostalgia Critic'' and that it would no longer be a weekly production, as he and his brother felt that they had gone as far as they could with the series. On January 23, 2013, a video titled "The Review Must Go On" announced the return of the Nostalgia Critic. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nostalgia Critic」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
