Wil Wheaton is coming to Syfy, but not as Wesley Crusher on the starship Enterprise -- the champion of geeks everywhere is instead writing, producing and hosting an all-new comedy talk show that celebrates nerd culture called The Wil Wheaton Project.

According to Wheaton's blog, the show is "sort of like Talk Soup for geeks." Each week, Wheaton will bring his unique, insider view of trending topics with light-hearted humor and an appreciation of sci-pop culture. From internet videos to hard news, no topic is off limits in the fast-paced, half hour show.

The show will premiere May 27 at 10 P.M. and is scheduled to air 12 episodes, with a possibility of more in the future.
