About Comedy Bang! Bang!

Hosted by Scott Aukerman, (co-creator/director/producer, Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifiankis) and musical cohort Reggie Watts (Conan), Comedy Bang!

About Bunk

Bunk, hosted by the always barefoot Kurt Braunohler, is an exciting new breed of "comedy game show" in which a trio of comedians compete in a series of bizarre challenges to win outlandish and surreal prizes. Each week, contestants are armed with nothing more than their wits and fertile imaginations as they complete offbeat games and challenges to win a myriad of "non-charitable causes" such as the ability to travel back in time, having a priest supply an alibi, and trading lives with a baby.
