LatestScott receives some disturbing news that may mean the end of Comedy Bang! Bang! forever, but before the end, old chums Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber and Fabrice Fabrice stop by to wish the gang goodbye.
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.

Reggie Watts' musical chaos is half the show's soul.
Creator
Scott Aukerman
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The show filmed 110 episodes in roughly 4 years, often shooting multiple episodes per day with Aukerman changing suits between fake 'nights.'
CBB directly influenced how streaming platforms approached anti-format comedy — without it, shows like 'I Think You Should Leave' might never have gotten greenlit.
