FOX’s new Animation Domination High-Def lineup of short-form animated mayhem officially kicks off this coming Saturday in a late-night programming block (11 p.m. Eastern/Pacific), but FOX ADHD gave viewers a sneak preview of both Axe Cop and High School USA last night in primetime.

Chris Hardwick had himself one busy Comic-Con in San Diego this weekend, not just moderating panels that released tidbits on all of your favorite superhero and fantasy movie blockbusters for the coming year, but also making news of his own — AMC announced Sunday that Hardwick will host Talking Bad, a live, weekly half-hour chat show designed to deconstruct each of the final eight episodes of Breaking Bad this August and September.
