This is How Movies Should Be Made

Just perfect...

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Go in cold, and you're likely to emerge with your blood boiling. This has to be seen to be believed.

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.

I can understand why some ppl aren't fond of Comedy bang!bang. those ppl probably like to watch shows like jersey shore or jay Leno. somebody needed to stick up for this show and say; "hey! this show is f*cking awesome! how refreshing their unpredictable, silly and whimsical style of comedy is! weird is becoming cooler and cooler,(especially in comedy) so to all you rayban wearing, dane cook fans, with your trendy haircuts, and Starbucks frappachinos - stay away from us weirdos! we think we're hilarious." seriously this is a great show. but if you can't appreciate something because its lack of tits and sparkles, then your better off watching family guy.

If a show is called comedy bang bang one expects humor. There isn't any, well maybe for a 3 year old.Have you ever watched or listened to a late night show where people can phone in? If so you must have noticed the drunken callers going "lalalabrabblebrabble" thinking they're funny. Well this isn't much better.The best word to describe this show is Lame. The decor is lame. The furniture is lame. The presenter is lame and he dresses lame. Reggie is lame. Most of the guests are lame and it they're not you see them thinking what the "bliep" am I doing here? Everything else also lame.Wow now I'm sounding like a 3 year old describing the lameness of this show.

Let's start by recognizing that Comedy Bang Bang is made for comedy connoisseurs. This is the American talk show deconstructed: it is not so important that you "laugh" so much as you appreciate the aesthetics of the bit; it is not so concerned with jokes as it is concerned with the technique and form of jokes. Disagree? Look, it cannot be a coincidence that the season one guest lineup is a virtual Algonquin Round Table of all the major figures in the alt comedy scene: Galifianakis, Poehler, Oswalt, Tompkins, Helms, Rogen, Odenkirk, Forte, Kroll, Rudd, Barry, Arnett, Cera, Koechner, Cross, Black, Scott, Lennon, Scheer … and you get the sense that this is the kind of material that they would perform for each other if there were no audience around: esoteric, experimental, and with a healthy amount of self-aware meta-humor. This is, in other words, hard-edged alternative comedy for the dedicated enthusiast, not the more palatable and softened version that you get from, e.g., Portlandia, Parks and Recreation, etc. Indeed, that most viewers will find this show alienating is kind of the point – a big part of the reason that one out of ten people will love this show is because they know the other nine are going to hate it. Add to that great chemistry between Scott Aukerman and Reggie Watts and pitch-perfect character performances from both and you have, in my opinion, the most consistently interesting television that I have seen in years. Hey, one out of ten people can't be wrong, no?
