The initial web episode premiered on Spike.com. Spike subsequently picked up the series for an additional 11 episodes. According to Gunn, the idea was developed in the early 2000s, before short-term
Internet-based
sketch comedies became popular.
Stephen Blackehart of The Good Boys Productions produced the show with
Jake Zim and
Peter Safran of Safran Digital Group (SDG) for Spike.com. All episodes are directed by James Gunn and have a score by
Tyler Bates. The fifth episode is not hosted on Spike.com. In James Gunn's words this was "because the head of Spike Network FREAKED OUT on the, uh, raunchiness of the content and pulled it down." The video was available on Gunn's website. In 2010,
French channel
Canal+ produced a
remake of the series, titled
Du hard ou du cochon !. ==Episodes==
