Jason Hall: From Monolith to WBIE to 'The Jace Hall Show'
Mr. N'Gai Croal has the first trailer for Jason Hall's new web-show, The Jace Hall Show. Perhaps sensing your inevitable query – "Who is Jason Hall and what's his show about?" – N'Gai has laid out his story in a helpful FAQ format where he attempts to answer just such questions.
First, Jace Hall is Jason Hall, formerly of Monolith and Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. Second, this isn't GTTV; Hall says it's more like Curb Your Enthusiasm or The Office meets Jimmy Kimmel. More to the point, it's a show about people instead of products – nevertheless, the teaser shows Hall infiltrating the offices of 3D Realms demanding to see the mythical Duke Nukem Forever, which has some corners of the internet wondering aloud if the inaugural episode of The Jace Hall show is going to feature some major league product news.
We'll find out soon: the show is free on Sony's Crackle.com later today (the site is being relaunched), as well as the Xbox Live Marketplace with accompanying $1 pricetag.

Well...if Monolith knows anything about anything, it's certainly office buildings!
(I hear they're quite familiar with warehouses as well...)

I look forward to seeing how this turns out.
"Jace Hall" doesn't seem to flow well in speech, though. Anyone else agree?

hmm, that screen shot reminds of the intro to another video game related show. Is Jace really using this is as his own?? And can we please latch onto a new grievous japlish game mis-translation catch phrase that identifys us as core gamers. If I have to see "all your base..."one more time... GAH! its plastered all over his website! the horror. Dad please stop saying that, your embarrasing me.

Oh noes...more console content for a fee...the end is nigh.

Using catchphrases like "All your base are belong to us" reassures me that this show will be relevant.

for some reason this all feels like some conspiracy plot for some very big news on DNF made by 3d realms. go to the jace hall website there's only a forum and 2 threads on that forum and one of the two features a voice very similar to the old duke, i think its the new duke voice given that the original actor did not sign onto this project. just to much of a connection i think.
