Kevin Bacon, Kaley Cuoco, Tony Hale, Joe Jonas, Aubrey Plaza & Many More Guest Stars To Come

Comedy Bang! Bang! is getting weirder this season... and it's not just thanks to the new bandleader and co-host, "Weird Al" Yankovic. Season five, premiering with two back-to-back episodes on Friday, June 3 at 11:00pm ET/PT and 11:30pm ET/PT on IFC, brings us the highly-anticipated return of the surreal, wildly entertaining scripted talk show, hosted and created by Scott Aukerman. The new season returns with 20 episodes filled with an exciting line-up of guest stars, including award-winning musicians, top-tier comics, sketch luminaries, and the star of an 80's classic dance movie, each joining in on the fun with Scott and Al. Every week, two back-to-back episodes will air starting at 11:00pm; the first 10 episodes run through July 1, and the remaining 10 episodes will air on IFC this fall.
