The latest series to join the programming schedule at Comedy Central, American Body Shop is set against the backdrop of, you guessed it, an American body shop. Modeled after the improvisational format of Reno 911!, the half-hour comedy gives us an inside view into a world hitherto shrouded by mystery and known only to your local mechanic. The show focuses on the twice-divorced shop owner, Sam, whose spends most of his time trying to keep his business running smoothly as his unruly employees make every effort to undermine him. First there’s Johnny from Brooklyn (a wannabe gangster who alludes to the possibility that he may be in the Witness Protection Program; suffice it to say that he’s not). Then there’s Tim, the “undersexed prankster” who has no concept of comedic timing. Add in a few other misfits and you’ve got a bunch of bumbling idiots with ready access to heavy machinery. Let the laughs begin.WWW.COMEDYCENTRAL.COM
