Synopsis

The CollegeHumor Show follows the misadventures of the writers that work at the website CollegeHumor.com. Filmed in CollegeHumor's real New York office, the show features fast-paced dialogue, slapstick, and an absurdist sense of humor. The single-camera show combines sitcom and sketch comedy formats, featuring an overarching storyline interspersed with occasional sketches and short films in the style of CollegeHumor's "CH Originals" and "Hardly Working" video series. The sketches are sometimes more surreal in nature than the events of the story.

Cast

Main Characters

In the show, the actual CollegeHumor (and CollegeHumor Show) writers play fictionalized versions of themselves. There is no single "star" of the show; rather, the nine main characters function as an ensemble. For the most part, the characters are self-centered, operating according to their immediate desires rather than making rational or sensitive decisions.

Ricky (Ricky Van Veen) is the editor-in-chief, a wealthy, image-obsessed young man who craves the attention of D-list celebrities. Sam (Sam Reich) manages the writing staff, though he is essentially as immature as the rest of them. Sam has a close friendship with Dan (Dan Gurewitch), a bright-eyed, enthusiastic writer who often has a naive approach to women and the world.

Amir (Amir Blumenfeld) is the outcast of the gang, socially inept and prone to fits of irrational anger. He wants nothing more than to be best friends with office ladies' man Jake (Jake Hurwitz). Their dysfunctional relationship was created and cultivated in their online video series Jake & Amir.

Streeter (Streeter Seidell), the front page editor, is moodier than the rest of the writers, and prone to emitting a signature whine when he doesn't get his way. Jeff (Jeff Rubin), managing editor and video game fanatic, has a more "go with the flow" attitude, while Patrick (Patrick Cassels) tends to be more eccentric and put-upon than the others.

The staff is rounded out by Sarah (Sarah Schneider), the most down-to-earth member of the group. As she is a bit of a tomboy, the guys on staff treat her like a sister. She is often the sole voice of reason in an otherwise chaotic office.

Supporting Cast

Nick Kroll as Chuck Paulson, CEO of CollegeHumor's fictional rival website GiggleBarn.biz. Josh Ruben as Trip, an insensitive man that the CH boys attempt to set up with Sarah.
