【Watch online Sexy Warriors (2014) full movie】

"Best job I ever had."

#AtMidnightIn5Words was the prompt,Watch online Sexy Warriors (2014) full movie and after a dozen or so quick-fire quips from regular guests like Colton Dunn ("One black at a time") and Whitney Cummings ("One woman at a time"), show host Chris Hardwick reminded the audience in its series finale that Comedy Central’s @midnighttransformed careers, late night, and the internet itself in its four-year run.

The show that started with a Funny or Dieconcept bringing Twitter to television deviated from that original pitch, but kept at its core an ingrained interdependence with social media. On the surface, @midnightis a game show where Hardwick awards meaningless points to three comedians – or Muppets, or politicians, or Kenny G -- who joke about the myriad idiot things happening on the internet each day.

But while some subjects were unavoidable -- Cash me ousside, Harambe (#RIP), that damn dress -- the diligent research team on @midnightplumbed the nether regions of the world wide web to introduce hilariously stupid memes (and cat videos) to new audiences nightly. It was that symbiotic relationship with the internet -- the name of the show is its Twitter handle, after all -- which created a feedback loop of content that remained fresh for 600 episodes.

As Hardwick noted in Friday night's finale, @midnight’s#HashtagWar du jour trended every night the show was on air, usually besting other vitally important subjects like #sports or #WhateverTrumpIsTweetingAbout.

Followers were lost and gained as Twitter users obsessively filled their timelines with nightly pun battles. And the segment spawned imitators like @HashtagRoundup, which culls games from partner accounts, promotes popular comedy hashtags, and runs an entire app just for serious hashtag gamers to battle each other. For a television show, or any product, to so thoroughly dominate social media trends was the fever dream of every network head just a few short years ago.

What’s been different about the @midnightformula, Hardwick told me just after the show’s first series extension in 2014, is that essential and inextricable interaction with fans.

"Social media doesn’t work well when you’re just promoting at it," he said. "It’s a system, and you have to keep replenishing the system. And sometimes that means adding things to it that don’t promote you, that you’re just sharing with the world."

The result has been two consecutive Emmy wins for the series in a category seemingly designed for it: Social TV Experience.

Social media wasn’t the only thing to change since @midnightpremiered in October 2013. As Hardwick has reiterated since its inception, the show’s subtextual goal was to get more comedians on Comedy Central. This seems like a simple premise, but its an altogether challenging one.

Throughout the show’s run, Hardwick made a point of sourcing underexposed talent and giving them a spotlight. Marcella Arguello, one of the finale’s 34 special guests, gave props to Hardwick for recognizing her talent at an improv show, booking her on @midnight, getting her a manager, and altogether exploding her career. And while Ron Funches joked that every project he’s attached to gets unceremoniously, prematurely killed, he thanked @midnightfor raising his profile enough to be cast at all.

Goodnight, @midnight! I love you. #AtMidnightIn5Words

That leaves Hardwick, without whose unfaltering energy and unapologetic nerdiness @midnightmay not have succeeded. Friday night's audience, made up entirely of close friends and family of the show’s 125 staff and crew (and one interloping reporter), have been some of Hardwick’s most enduring -- and diehard -- fans. Not the least of whom is Hardwick’s mom, Sharon Hills, herself now an internet celebrity -- and who recently suggested on Twitter that the decision to end @midnightwas not mutual.

But the reality is that 600 is a lot of episodes, and Chris Hardwick is a busy man these days -- Talking Dead, Talking Saul, Talking Preacherand just plain Talking with Chris Hardwickseem to fill half of AMC’s lineup, not to mention hosting duties for NBC’s The Walland surprise appearances on America’s Got Talent, Live! with Kellyand myriad other places.

Comedy Central president Kent Alterman, who was in attendance at Wednesday’s finale taping, got a special shout out from Hardwick before the ultimate winner of the internet was announced, and the exec described the show’s conclusion as bittersweet.

Bittersweet, perhaps, because the very show that helped catapult Hardwick into giddy ubiquity comes to an end, chock full of fart and dick jokes as ever. And, as the man himself says, the internet will go on.
