As video game characters, Rip and Raquel Smashenburn face many challenges. Racecar driving (i.e. wrecking) and monster vanquishing are difficult enough, yet neither vocation compares to the struggles of raising two kids. 14-year-old Alice is discovering a new level of social conscience, while 13-year-old Billy hopes to develop social standing via an over-the-top hip-hop persona. Turbo is the Smashenburns' nondescript, 300-pound "pet," but obedience isn't one of his traits. And because no neighborhood would be complete without a family of Kung Fu fighting Shaolin Monks, the Changs live next door.

Based on Scott Aukerman’s (co-creator/director/producer, Between Two Ferns with Zach Galifianakis writer/performer, Mr. Show) 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.

Based on the real-life dysfunctional family of Christopher Titus, the show depicts his character, his brother, and their friends dealing with his crude, abusive, sadistic drunken father and how he has twisted and ruined his own life. All in a light-hearted comedy vein.
