Douglas Darien Walker (born November 17, 1981) is an American comedian, film critic, actor and YouTuber. He is best known for creating and starring in the satirical film review web series Nostalgia Critic, wherein the titular character reviews nostalgic media in an exaggeratedly angry manner. After an initial run on YouTube, Walker co-created the website That Guy with the Glasses (later merged into Channel Awesome) in 2008, where he and the series gained wider popularity. The site also presented other media critics who created similar content, including Lindsay Ellis and Angry Joe. Walker and his series returned to YouTube in 2012. As of 2025, Walker still creates the show but with less of an angry or profane approach.
