SYFY WIRE’s The Great Debate is moving from the Convention Stage to TV Screens. The series will be premiering on Thursday, June 18th at 11 PM ET.
Grace And Frankie star Baron Vaughn will be hosting, and the show will be tacking the biggest debates in the multiverse. SYFY’s official description for the show says:
Transformed from the stage for the SYFY screen, the half-hour, late-night series features a rotating group of nerd-tastic, nostalgia loving celebrities who go head-to-head each week to hash out fandom’s burning questions. These notable genre enthusiasts show off their comedic improv chops, don their best geekdom cosplay and debate the hottest questions in the galaxy such as: Who’d be a worse boss, Darth Vader or the Joker? What is THE best movie snack? What would a therapy session with Super Mario look like? And many more!
The list of debaters is huge and all debaters are listed below:
