Chris Hardwick will return to Talking Dead in August
In June, AMC pulled Chris Hardwick’s Talking Dead from its schedule in response to claims from his ex-girlfriend Chloe Dykstra that he had emotionally and sexually abused her when they were in a relationship. Yvette Nicole Brown was recently named as a temporary replacement host, but now AMC has announced that it has cleared Hardwick to return to Talking Dead and his non-Walking Dead show Talking With Chris Hardwick. This comes from Deadline, which says AMC conducted a “comprehensive assessment” into the allegations against Hardwick, including “interviews with numerous individuals.” Having completed the investigation, AMC has decided that putting him back on the air is “the appropriate step.”
