History
Bennett, Mooney, and Rutherford met while attending the University of Southern California, performing together in the university's improv troupe. Finding success performing for small audiences, the group enlisted McCary, a childhood friend of Mooney's, to edit and direct video content for YouTube. In 2011, the group signed with Maker Studios to produce additional content for upload on their individual channels. The group was hired for SNL's 39th season in 2013, with Rutherford serving as a writer, McCary as a director, and Bennett and Mooney as featured players.

In 2017, Mooney starred in the film Brigsby Bear. He co-wrote the film with Kevin Costello, drawing inspiration from his own interest in 1980s children's television shows and cartoons, and his experience making short films with Costello and McCary in middle school. McCary directed the film, with Bennett and Rutherford making appearances. In December 2021, the adult cartoon comedy Saturday Morning All Star Hits! was released on Netflix. The series was co-created, co-written, and executive produced by Mooney, with McCary directing. Mooney features in several roles, with Bennett also voicing several characters.
