Synopsis

Based on Scott Aukerman’s popular podcast of the same name, COMEDY BANG! BANG! cleverly riffs on the well-known format of the late night talk show, infusing celebrity appearances and comedy sketches with a tinge of the surreal. In each episode, Aukerman engages his guests with unfiltered and improvisational lines of questioning, punctuated by banter and beats provided by bandleader, one-man musical mastermind Reggie Watts, to reinvent the traditional celebrity interview. Packed with character cameos, filmic shorts, sketches and games set amongst an off-beat world, COMEDY BANG! BANG! delivers thirty minutes of absurd laugh-loaded fun featuring some of the biggest names in comedy.

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Clevercell Very disappointing...
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
shmizzla One thing is certain - this show is unpredictable! Its humor is random but amazingly good at it. The writers did a great job at mocking talk shows, creating in the process an original piece of art, unique kind of show filled with great jokes, unexpected story twists, satirical segments, hilarious guests and, last but not least, continuous silly word play including host's name. I also have to mention that creator/host Scott Aukerman is amazing at mocking TV hosts, doing that both subtly and obviously. Reggie Watts fits in perfectly with his unique style; he made me laugh so many times with his 3 second songs. I love this show, it's refreshing, but it does require a special sense of humor to appreciate it, I don't believe that many people would like it. But those who do, they will LOVE it! I give it 9/10 just because there were couple of episodes that felt "off" to me. But definitely - a must watch.
carl-171 Comedy Bang Bang is entertaining.. for the first 10 minutes or so! It would be pretty good as a comedy short, and would even make a funny SNL skit. But, as an entire series.. not so much!The same old joke gets old really fast! The more you watch, the less funny it becomes. On the positive side, the show has some good guests and they play along with the one dimensional gag very well, for a while. However, even the guests' comedy contributions become tiring, very fast! I recommend watching this only once, and only for a brief period of time, say.. less than 15 minutes. After that, you will likely become bored with it. Watching too long may make you scream!
robertrobbierob When I watched the first episode, I was wondering what I was watching. I then watched the second episode and wondered why I was still watching this! Half way through the second episode is when it hit me; this is meant to seem like a bad talk show when talking with the guest. The comedy of it is making fun of how bad talk shows can be, and how the hosts think they can do no wrong. The humor of it can be compared to what I call everyday humor; stuff that happens in everyday life that is funny, but not everyone get's it. It is not a show catering to everyone, and not for people who aren't into the harder styles of comedy(Comedy that the average person usually doesn't understand why it is funny.).They do go out on a lot of limbs in this show, but that is what you do in comedy. I will admit sometimes these chances they take fall flat, but I appreciate their vision. Reggie and Scott are a great duo; they play well off each other, and you feel like it's real when Reggie makes fun of Scott, or when Scott is being sincere about his feeling with Reggie.All around I suggest check it out, because even though I didn't like the first episode, something made me keep watching the second. To me, that means they were still doing something right.
Ron Stuwart The hosts have no sense of humor. There is not very much entertainment value in this show. Their jokes are so dry and lame that it makes me wonder how they got their own show. Cons:-The hosts are terribly dull, and not funny. -They advertise it as being a "comedic fantasy". It's far from it. -They have many chances to be funny in their skits, but they can't. why? because it's starring Reggie and Scott. -Reggie Watts looks like he would be funny, but when he opens his mouth you realize he isn't.Pros: -Sometimes they have interesting guest stars I'm interested in seeing, but for the most part you get the "why the hell am I here?" vibe from them.Overall, the combination of Reggie and Scott is an utter failure, but then again either of them separately is also an utter failure. If I was a guest star on their show I would fire my agent for making me be around those horribly dull comedians and wasting my time. Why is this on TV?
