      Season 5 – Comedy Bang! Bang!

      2016 Comedy List
      Reviews 100% Fewer than 50 Ratings Audience Score Upon first look, "Comedy Bang! Bang!" is like any late-night talk show... until the guests sit down and the interviews commence. Then it veers off in all sorts of directions, most of which include unfiltered and improvised dialogue. The show is based on host Scott Aukerman's popular podcast of the same name (and most certainly influenced by the Internet mock-talk show "Between Two Ferns With Zach Galifianakis," which Aukerman produced and directed). In each episode, Aukerman reinvents the traditional celebrity interview by engaging his guests in ad-libbed banter, all of which is punctuated by beats from "bandleader" Reggie Watts or, in later episodes, "Weird Al" Yankovic.

      LaToya Ferguson AV Club Comedy Bang! Bang! returns to its absurd version of the status quo with every new episode, and that also applies to its season premieres. The introduction of "Weird Al" Yankovic as the new bandleader truly falls in line with that. Rated: B- Jun 6, 2016 Full Review Stephen Puddicombe We Got This Covered As silly, outlandish and hilarious as ever, Comedy Bang! Bang! dispels concerns surrounding another cast change. It remains full of ideas even as it nears its hundredth episode. Rated: 8/10 Jun 2, 2016 Full Review Read all reviews
