DRUNK HISTORY Season 2 airs every Tuesday at 10:00 PM EDT on Comedy Central. (Season 1 archived thread: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3566160) Q: What is Drunk History? A: Let's see what Heather Campbell, editor of imdb.com has to say. Heather Campbell posted:“ Absolutely my favorite TV surprise of the past year, "Drunk History" jumped from web show to Comedy Central series last July, and after the first episode won me over as essential summer viewing. Uh, what? Last year's notable stars included Jack McBrayer, Jason Ritter, Bob Odenkirk, Chris Parnell, Lisa Bonet, Nathan Fielder, Bill Hader, Jason Schwartzman, Jack Black, Terry Crews, Tony Hale, Rob Huebel, Winona Ryder, Owen Wilson, Luke Wilson, Ike Barinholtz, Michael Cera, Andrew Daly, Will Forte, Taran Killam, Steve Little, Rob Riggle, Ken Marino, Kumail Nanjiani, Aubrey Plaza, Adam Scott, Kristen Wiig, Kevin Nealon, Horatio Sanz, Bradley Whitford, Will Sasso, Dave Grohl, Tim Heidecker, Stephen Merchant, Fred Willard, Nick Offerman, and many, many more. So basically if you've ever enjoyed any comedy ever you will probably laugh at least once while watching this show. "Hey... ...blah blah. I got it." Frequently Asked Question Q: Are these guys actually drunk?! A: Yes! Each interviewer recites their rehearsed story three times during the night, each time drunker than the last. Derek Waters and his team then edit together a complete telling of the story with the best parts and the script is made for the actors who reenact the stories. A/V Club posted a really great series of articles that provide some behind-the-scenes insight into the show and can be read in full here: Part 1: http://www.avclub.com/articles/derek-waters-and-jeremy-konner-on-drunk-historys-f,102772/ Part 2: http://www.avclub.com/articles/drunk-historys-creators-on-detroit-dolly-parton-an,102804/2/ A full Season 2 episode title list can be found here. There's some good ones in store this season...looks like they're moving away from the one city per episode format a few times, too. And it looks like David Wain is going to get drunk and tell us a story. "fuckin ONE TWO ONE TWO" (btw it isn't all in black in white, just for certain stories) timp fucked around with this message at 14:19 on Jul 31, 2014 |

I fell in love with this show just because of the premise alone. It's such a simple yet brilliant premise that I'm amazed that no one has thought of it before. I'm honestly looking forward to the second season. Also one thing that that I hope this series does at some point would be to go to Europe at get some European history in here as well.

Amber Ruffin is great. Also I would still do Lisa Bonett

What that gently caress was that Planet of the Apes commercial? That wasn't something from the actual movie, was it?

Can't wait to watch the premiere in a little bit, but I just wanted to add that the funniest bit from the first season is definitely when they're talking about Al Capone. Cried laughing at multiple parts.

# ? Jul 2, 2014 03:53 |

The biggest laugh of the episode for me was when the credits rolled and I found out that Hitler was played by Weird Al. And whoever the young actress who played Claudette Colvin is was hilarious too

Can you do one of Weird Al's credit scene? It's just hilarious, and will probably be even more so out of context.

I was disappointed the Montgomery episode wasn't tied much to Montgomery except for Claudette. Joe Louis had nothing to do with Montgomery and the Percy Julian was born there but his story took place almost entirely elsewhere. Although in his case I'm all for it since his story is less known and he spent his entire childhood there, so he really does have roots in Montgomery. Zelda Sayre would have had a ton of material to mine for a great story, for example. George Wallace if you want a story with a villain.

There's going to be an episode set in Charleston, SC, where I lived for about a year. I'm honestly wracking my brain trying to figure out what stories and characters they're going to use...Blackbeard? Some Gone with the Wind book or movie history? Bill Murray crashing bachelorette parties?

Yeah, I'm a native. They made Montgomery look a lot nicer than it actually is. I went to the Aviator Bar the night they were shooting, which is a great shooting location, but probably nowhere you'd actually want to hang out. It was a young hip crowd that night but usually its young Republican downtown "entrepreneurs" who think they're the poo poo.

comes along bort posted:Denmark Vesey, but that's kind of a bummer Huh...I'd never heard that story before. Maybe that's when they use Keegan-Michael Key, because after seeing a solo Jordan Peele you just know it's only a matter of time before we see him. Shout out to Hewlett for the .gifs, they've been added to the OP. This show practically begs to be .giffed, especially with ridiculous drunk captions added in.

The website only has the highlights of Montgomery episode, do they eventually mention Schmelling wasn't actually a nazi and was risking his life to save Jews in Germany the whole time and tried helping American POWs? If they don't it's really lovely leaving it implied.

They don't, but who cares? If people are actually taking the slurred, completely wasted versions of history that comedians are telling on a Comedy Central as the God's honest, complete truth, they're probably a lost cause to begin with.

Uh, plenty of people probably care and there's really no reason they couldn't or even shouldn't have put at the end "oh by the way Schmelling was actively working against Hitler the whole time" and had Weird Al make a funny face about being betrayed or something. Risking your life doing the right thing and then having a major television channel implying you were a nazi is a lovely thing to do, not sure why this needs explained.

It's a story told by someone who is drunk. Why would you expect it to be super accurate?
