Synopsis

Web Soup is a weekly series that aired in the U.S. on G4. The show, hosted by Chris Hardwick, comments on the latest in viral videos. It has similar fashion to sister network E!'s series The Soup and is produced by the same crew as that show. The program held a TV-14 rating due to strong language, violent situations, and some suggestive scenes. During the first two seasons, this show was taped in front of a green screen like The Soup. In the third season, the program taped on the set usually utilized by E! News with added studio audience seating. Chris Hardwick confirmed via a comment on his website that season three was the last and the show would not continue. However, repackaged archived episodes returned to G4's schedule.

ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.
Steineded How sad is this?
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
count-slackula What kind of laziness is it when TV doesn't even bother to produce the content of the programs any more and simply trawls the web for boring, tired and stale old videos that everybody has seen and provides the TV equivalent of an annoying email forward? A viewer can have a lot more fun in a few minutes on the web than watching this particular attempt to grab views.The presenter comes across as an annoying jerk, the kind of person that enjoys the TV series Greek might find him mildly amusing, everybody else will just be irritated.The meme that "Hollywood is out of ideas" looks laughable in the face of uninspired smug trash like this.0/10. May FSM have mercy on your souls.
Murder Enthusiast Let me first say that I enjoy Chris Hardwick's stand up (I am a long time UCB show attendee and comedy nerd), but Daniel Tosh has better material and delivery in both his stand up, and his show. I realize that Web Soup and Tosh.0 have the same basic formatted show, but don't call Tosh.0 a rip off since Web Junk and all those other internet clip shows before them have basically done the same thing. Tosh.0 is just doing it better with added segments (web redemption, interviewing the internet "sensations", showing people puking in every episode for the first season).Web Soup feels forced. Like Chris Hardwick and the writers met a deadline with half finished bits that they didn't think through if they were going to be perceived as funny before they shot the show (one of the writers worked on Mind of Mencia, FYI). This program is merely a rehashed Web Junk with another host. It's too bad The Soup has to be associated with this unfortunately produced show.Watch Tosh.0 instead of this. You will actually laugh, and you may just learn something.
