How it feels

Scott Aukerman hosts a fake talk show where strange characters and ridiculous sketches parody late night television. The humor comes from the surreal jokes and the characters' deliberate incompetence.

What happens

Comedy Bang! Bang! is a television talk show created and hosted by Scott Aukerman. The show aired weekly on IFC and was a spin-off of Aukerman's podcast Comedy Bang! Bang!, which airs on the Earwolf network. Like the podcast, the series featured outlandish and farcical humor, often delivered in a deadpan manner. The mock talk show derived most of its comedy from its surreal spoofs of common late night tropes and from its characters' ineptitude. On August 18, 2016, Aukerman announced that the series would end after season 5, and the finale aired on December 2, 2016. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
