Endings of television shows are sometimes such depressing things. It's like you're not going to hang out with these people anymore, and that's bad enough.

More quotes by Scott Aukerman
I love all of our subpodcasts.

Оf course you can only write comedy when you're smoking weed.
Scott Aukerman
You become a victim of your own success. It's what happens in TV when Fox has a big hit with the X-Files. And they start chasing and the rest of their shows suffer. Because the experimentation that made the X-Files a show is all of the sudden lost.
Scott Aukerman
I get inspired when I look at Tom Lennon, who did Reno 911! for six seasons while writing huge movies and directing, and also doing other pilots he did that FX pilot, the Star Trek thing.
Scott Aukerman
Others may dispute this, we have tried to keep that sense of experimentation and putting new people up alive. And we haven't become a show, where we're like, We know the 20 comics who are good and we're just going to keep on recycling them.
Scott Aukerman
We have a philosophy of we'll keep putting it up until people get it. We did that actually these last three weeks with Cracked Out from New York. People didn't really understand them. We put them up three weeks ago and they just got stared at.

Thank you for listening to Comedy Bang Bang! My name is Scott Aukerman and I will see you next week.

Things go away and projects crumble and disappear, or you make your movie and it comes out and no one watches it.
Scott Aukerman
When people look at the ratings and they're bad, I think people can get an idea of Why would they even make the show? And to a certain extent, original programming for any network is a loss leader to try to get you to keep the channel on your cable package.

I came into the 'Comedy Bang! Bang!' TV show with a level of confidence that I don't think I would've had if I hadn't been doing the podcast for three years already. I certainly had to figure out in those three years the sense of humor I wanted to do and the way to talk to celebrities without being incredibly intimidated by them.
Scott Aukerman
It really was a unique experience to me to have a television show, Comedy Bang! Bang!, that I really cared about so much, and to know that it was the end, and know that that was the ending of it. We had a wrap party, and we thanked everybody. You don't get that a lot, especially in comedy.

The key to being a singer - try to do it audibly.
Scott Aukerman
Not everyone can be as successful a performer as myself, who gave 10 great performances the first time I ever did comedy, and then toiled in obscurity for years.
Scott Aukerman
The show became popular as aspecialthing became popular. And Sasquatch, the guy who runs that site, started coming to every show and reviewing it. And when people start talking about the reviews from the stage. That to me is really self indulgent and we tried to put a caper on that.
Scott Aukerman
Intimacy is really good. But then again, the first disk on the record is not intimate in the least. It's a really good CD.
Scott Aukerman
The podcast was kind of an afterthought, because I was just excited about being on the radio. Then I found that the podcast listenership is some 20 times what people are listening to on the radio.
Scott Aukerman
I probably could be a world-class screenwriter by now if I had spent the kind of work I devote on Comedy Death-Ray to that. But I do okay, in that regard. I mean, my stuff gets bought, so it's all right.
Scott Aukerman
It's really difficult to make things, and a lot of times you don't know you're at the end of something.
Scott Aukerman
I always viewed [the podcast and the TV show] as two separate things.
Scott Aukerman
I probably felt some sense of relief, because when you're on this continuous production cycle and you're doing a show for a network where they expect you to come back every May or every June, you just don't get time to sort of recharge.
