Historyedit
Nick started his first show, TALKCOMICS, in 1993 with his best friend Milan Dale. It was a call-in show which aired on the public-access television station Manhattan Neighborhood Network(MNN).[1][2] Viewers would call in with questions on comic books and host Nick Scoullar would answer them.
Word of the show got around and it was jointly picked up by Canada's YTV, America's Fremantle Corporation and Sci-Fi channel, and turned into The Anti-Gravity Room. The show was expanded into more of a news/information show that still covered comics, but also more literature, games, movies and music. Two more hosts were added: Phil Guerrero and Shashi Bhatia. Nick was based in New York City, Phil in Toronto and Shashi in Los Angeles.
Shashi would later be replaced by Jaimy Mahlon over the course of the series' four-year run. Other hosts included Eugenie Vincent, Aashna Patel, Patricia Ribeiro and Jackie Farry.
The final season of The Anti-Gravity Room was only aired in Canada, as the Sci-Fi Channel decided to cancel the series early. The new season had the show's titled renamed to Warp.[3]
