The Nostalgia Critic is a web television series starring Doug Walker as the eponymous reviewer. The series was initially launched on YouTube before moving to an independent site, That Guy with the Glasses, run by production company Channel Awesome.
The show involves the Nostalgia Critic, often referred to as simply the Critic or NC, reviewing mostly nostalgic media in a negative (but humorous) manner. This mostly concerns movies and television series from the 1980s to '90s, but he has on occasion made exceptions for movies and television series that came out after 1999 and before 1980.
Most of his reviews are for films that were critical failures, although he has negatively reviewed some critical successes, recently, such as Moulin Rouge!, Signs and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
