Despite some less-than-favorable press from sources including Newsarama itself, AMC’s reality series Comic Book Men — set at Kevin Smith’s Jay and Silent Bob’s Secret Stash in New Jersey — has been renewed for a second season, as has Walking Dead post-show The Talking Dead, hosted by Nerdist’s Chris Hardwick. Both will run for 16 half-hour episodes.
The lack of females in the Comic Book Men cast was a point of contention during its first season, with Smith indicating on Twitter that the plan was, “Saving them for season 2, to have somewhere to go story-wise.” Premieres dates aren’t yet publicly known for either show, but will likely coincide with the forthcoming third season of The Walking Dead.

I enjoyed both shows. Comic Book Men will do much better as a 30 min show.

Comic Book Men would be better if it were off the air.

“…Despite some less-than-favorable press from sources including Newsarama itself…”
to be fair the newsarama post is from somebody who actually hadn’t SEEN the show at the time of writing.
It should be taken with a grain of salt to say the least.

I saw the show and asked …why?
If you enjoy being bored then comic book men is the show for you.

Oh look, no one cared about your original post, no one cared about your follow up post, and two people cared enough to post on this one, one of which that disagrees with you…well done.
