Fist I read I review I find actually more humorous than the show as it
inferred that in between the humor you may learn something about
history. My guess is the shows creators would also find that funny as
hell. One the other hand assuming the comment was serious you really
have to wonder about this shows target market. Personally I love Adult
Swim, the Cartoon Network and adult humor. I have watched a few of
these shows and personally don't find them funny at all (maybe the
first 10 minutes of the first show, after that every episode seems sort
of based on the same gag. If the writing was better this could be a
great show in terms of intellectual humor. Instead it seems more
slapstick as the more the actor talks the more absurd the humor becomes
, if you can find humor in it. Besides the writing the acting really is
pretty bad. Acting drunk is likely not easy while at the same time
having to recite lines that I guess are meant to become lamer by the
minute. I feel embarrassed frankly for those involved and once again
the premise of drunken distortion of history gets old quickly when the
writing sucks. Finally the entire concept of making light of those
loosing control while drinking and trying, and not succeeding, to get
people to laugh at the drunk just strikes me wrong for some reason. And
just to make clear I not a religious person so comments coming from
that angle, I admit I am likely older than the target audience (55 and
a professional) but I have none the less never been accused of being
overly mature. I am typically a big fan of humor which pushes the limit and sets new
standards (I am the type who see shows such as the Simpsons as funny
but tame in the sense of not wanting to push the limits so as not to
offend anyone and retain a broad audience. I totally understand the
reasoning and it has generated a ton of money no two ways about it.
However I think shows like Rick and Morty, South Park and canceled
shows such as Brickellberry to be much more entertaining. I thought
God, The Devil and Bob, Firsky Dingo and others that pushed the bounds
as funny. I know this show is not a cartoon so to compare more apples
to apples the humor and writing skills ranks up there with the old
Benny Hill show.
Brilliant...

Some of these reviewers are absolutely clueless. This show is
hilarious. "Uneven"??? They're drunk, you ding dong. The one who wrote
"I love history and I love comedy" - dude, maybe Bob Hope is more up
your alley if you're not getting Drunk History...Paget Brewster
is...genius. Love this show - keep 'em coming, Derek. i do some college
teaching and when the kids are a bit stressed I'll show them a scene or
two from drunk history to lighten their mood a bit - this show is the
best. I usually watch episodes multiple times because at first, I find
myself more engaged by the story itself; after re-watching I can fully
appreciate the pure comedy. Loved the First Ladies episode and Laura
Dern's episode as well.

An idea that could have possibly made a decent 10 minute skit on a
comedy show like SNL, if only it was a little bit funny. I couldn't
watch this garbage longer than 5 minutes. There is so much wrong with
this dribble.. it's pretentious, vapid, boring, stupid (in an unfunny
way), and most of all, totally UNFUNNY. This is the worst piece of crap
I've seen on cable in a very very long time! I need more words and
lines for this submission, so here they are.. This show sucks! It
really really really does! Suck, that is! Really, it does! Totally!!!Still need more words..I imagine this type of comedy would be funny to a person watching it
who was impaired.. I mean like drunk, or in general. Perhaps the next
time I'm drunk I will test this out. But, I strongly urge anyone who is
not drunk, or impaired in any other fashion, not watch this. (I hope this was enough verbiage to get this submitted.)

I have watched this show because I love history and love comedy, I was,
however, sorely disappointed by the result... It is exactly what the
title claims it to be, history for someone that failed their history
classes due to being high or drunk and it is presented as such as if by
an illiterate and extremely ineloquent teacher. Having only watched 2 episodes, I can not claim historical inaccuracies
for as far as I'm concerned, but it's simply not funny. This show was
clearly made for an audience that would urinate itself laughing with a
badly timed fart-joke, but don't know enough about history in the first
place to enjoy the (very) few deep, more clever jokes that are made.If you desire historical comedy sketches that are actually funny, I
would recommend Horrible Histories rather than this dreadful excrement.
A piece of SH*T!!!!

This is by far the worst show on Comedy Central. I have loved all of
their other shows that I have seen. Tosh.0 is good as well and Inside
Amy Schumer and the Jeselnik Offensive. This show is not funny in away
way. I was not expecting a history show but I was expecting some
comedy. It is COMEDY central after all.I am only giving this two stars because some how they were able to get
people with real talent such as Fred Willard and Jack Black to be part
of this sh*t.They could do soooooo much better. Maybe they can work out the problem
and work in something good. The idea of the show has great potential. I
will be giving this another chance if they have a second season.

To be fair to the series, I already knew I wouldn't like it when I
decided to watch one, but I found the casting of Weird Al Yankovic as
Adolf Hitler absolutely impossible to resist... I HAD to see that, even
if I had to sift through 30 minutes of garbage to find it. And
actually, Weird Al was excellent... wish his part had been bigger.It was also well worth learning that Rosa Parks copied her famous
bus-seat-defiance from a pregnant unwed teenager named Claudette Colvin
who did it first and told her about it... say goodbye to your chances
of being on the $20 bill, Rosa.But the rest of it is just vile, dull, boring... like the worst part of
sitting through a party when someone is way too drunk and commanding
all your attention. I don't have a problem with the concept of "drunk"
unless one is behind the wheel of a car or otherwise putting others in
peril, and I thought one of the funniest episodes of "Mythbusters"
involved Adam and Jamie overindulging to test breathalyzer results. But
this is just awful. Avoid at all costs.
Very uneven but generally fun

The premise of "Drunk History" is simple. You have someone sit down and
talk about important historical moments in American history....but
first you get them drunk and keep them drinking throughout the episode.
As they (often) terribly narrate history, various actors (often very
famous folks) act out the history and spew the profanity-laden dialog.At times, this show is very funny. But, other times the humor is very
thin. Much of this seems to depend on the narrator as well as how drunk
they get. Because of this it's very hit or miss. Now here's the weird
part, generally the history they spout is correct-- and filled with
interesting tidbits. I say generally because although IMDb says it's
all 100% true, it isn't (trust me on this, I am a retired history
teacher and have spotted a few flaws and urban legends). But it IS as
accurate as many of the History Channel shows...and it's often funny.
Overall, I see this as a great show to watch if you just want a
time-passer--a show that required little in the way of deep thinking or
if you're doing something else at the same time.
Very cool. Wish they had this show when I was in HS.

A very unique approach to telling history, I must say. I like how they
usually start off at a bar and get some introspection from intelligent
people regarding what the ultimate discussions will be about. Just watching a bland, dry documentary there is a loss as to what
regular people think and feel about a particular subject. This series
offers that in spades. The actual story is great because not only is it appealing to a college
crowd and fun people, the story tellers go into details and even
discuss historic figures who never make in the regular history books,
and deserve some credit not administered by the mainstream.If you like South Park and Family Guy, you'll definitely enjoy these
shows, and maybe learn something new in the process.

The title says it all: a drunk person will tell you his version of some
of the best pieces of American history. This is as honest as can be.
And it's funny! There are things only drunk people will say, and this show is all about
that: what if we put drunk people's thought in a sober people mouth?
Furthermore, what if we put it in historically famous people's mouths?
Add to the mix a fairly famous cast (on the sober side) and comedy
central's budget, and the result is deliciously funny If the semi-incoherent babbling of drunk people gets on your nerves, if
you expect some high level third degree intellectual Monty Pythonnesque
humor or if you can't condone making fun of American symbols like
Abraham Lincoln or Rosa Parks, then this show is not for you, but then
again, you ought to ask yourself :"what was i expecting from a show
called drunk history?"In a few words, let's not kid ourselves and let's take the show for
what it is: a funny idea like the ones you get when you're drunk with
your friends put together by people who have the talent to make it
funny. Well done comedy central, and well done Derek Waters.

as my summary states, unfortunately on my own behalf... i can attest to
the multitude of drunken states of our narrators. i am and always have
been (at least of the comprehensible age) been "that drunk guy". the
thing that makes me love this show so damn much, the drunker i get...
the smarter i feel, the more i know, the absolute truth comes from deep
within.i get a good giggle out of the naysayer that claims "oh it's staged", i
might be a drunkard but i am not naive. sure enough the script is read
in a relatively sober state, and drunken context is added. right up
until "the i'm feelin' so good, it's bad" state of inebriation. i do
not doubt for a second if a gentlemen showed up with a quality fifth of
scotch, asked me to polish it off and then "read this" that i would
more than likely spit out some quality comedy gold.this show, with the wonderful acting and pantomiming is without a doubt
the funniest show on TV. it will only gain in greatness if, and when,
it branches out into the international circuit of this amazing planet.
just imagine the wonderful accents! cheers my friends, drinks up to a
good evening.
Love it!

Wow. I'm normally a bit hypersensitive to "make-work" programs for
talented thespians, and "Drunk History" could sorta be described that
way.But it somehow comes off like a genuine labor of love. And, for that, I
can forgive a lot of things.And, speaking of things needing forgiveness, what else may need to be
forgiven in these productions of "Drunk History"?Not much, if'n you asks me! The production is excellent; the adaptation
of the drunken interviews to screen action is ingenious. Skilled folks
are brought to the task of polishing up the final product. The sound
and camera work are fine. The selection of lively targets of
inebriation and exhortation to hold forth lovingly (if a bit sloppily)
on fascinating bits of history seems inspired.I've seen 6 of the produced episodes, and they're all winners. There
are typically 3 segments per episode, which is impressive; this
represents a lot of hard work! Maybe not every segment scintillates, in
my mind, but each show has at least 3 or 4 "wow" moments, which make
the shows well, well worth watching, in my book.Check it out. If you're a history buff, you might find yourself
secretly wishing Derek Waters would come a-knockin' on your door, with
camera crew in tow, offering *you* an opportunity to dip our toes in
yet-another limpid pool of "Drunk History"!

Derek Waters brings his hilarious web series to comedy central, with
bigger production values and entertainers replacing historians as the
drunken storytellers. The two episodes I've seen of Drunk History are
some of the most hilarious and entertaining television I've ever seen.
The premise is actors/writers/comedians get drunk and tell a story from
history, and the scenes described and narrated are acted out. So far,
my favorite was where Adam Scott played John Wilkes Booth in the
recreation of the Lincoln assassination. Some recognizable names play
some of the historical figures; Jack Black was great as Elvis, Dave
Grohl as Elivs's lackey, Jonathan Ames, Adam Scott, and Will Forte as
Junius, John Wilkes and Edwin Booth, and Fred Willard as 'Deep Throat'
in the recreation of the Watergate scandal. The funniest part, to me,
is the dialogue the drunken historians give the historical figures that
the actors then lip sync. I could use a bit less of the storyteller's
vomiting...though, I'm aware that usually goes over well with comedy
central's young male demographic. This series has great potential, and
I hope it will find the success it deserves.
