Chris Serico
- Actor
An award-winning entertainment reporter and analyst, Chris Serico has
deconstructed pop culture on national TV, interviewed A-listers, and
written offbeat commentary that's been highlighted by The New York
Times and "Late Night with Jimmy Fallon."
As a full-time reporter for Newsday and weekly on-air contributor to News12, Serico covered celebrities, breaking news, music, movies, TV, comedy, pop culture and red carpets in 2012-13. His previous years reporting for The Journal News enabled him to provide entertainment analysis for TV Guide Network and RNN-TV; co-host a TV-themed podcast; post hundreds of updates to that paper's entertainment blogs; produce and edit nightlife content for Metromix; pen weekly sports-humor columns; and be honored by the New York Associated Press.
He's interviewed an eclectic set of celebrities, including directors J.J. Abrams and John Waters; actors Susan Sarandon, Glenn Close, Mandy Patinkin, Patricia Clarkson, Hayden Panettiere, Kate Mara, and Rooney Mara; comedians Joan Rivers, Chevy Chase, George Lopez, Jerry Stiller, Artie Lange, Aziz Ansari, Amy Schumer and Charlie Murphy; and musicians Elvis Costello, Yoko Ono, Brian Wilson, Grace Potter, Daryl Hall, Ani DiFranco, Paul Shaffer, Steven Van Zandt and "Weird Al" Yankovic; and "The Wire" creator David Simon.
The New York Times, "Late Night," BuzzFeed, Entertainment Weekly, Comedy Central, The Huffington Post, Gawker, SiriusXM, Best Week Ever, Cracked, Splitsider and the Buffalo Bills are among those to cite Serico's exclusive interviews, pointed commentary and general silliness.
Serico's the creator of the social-media-skewering @EveryTweet_Ever (43,000+ Twitter followers) and Pop On The Clock, his irreverent pop-culture podcast featuring entertainers and entertainment experts.
In addition to co-founding Unsung Heroes - a vocal band recruited for NBC's "The Sing-Off" - Serico has performed comedy at the UCB Theatre, Comic Strip Live and Gotham in New York City, and provided voice-overs for video games, Gannett and other clients.
He is not particularly fond of pea soup.
