Drunk History Seasons 1 and 2

...awuldv been awesome to be part of the making of this product..waay ahead of its time then n now!

I bought all the seasons for my mother, she absolutely loved them and my entire family enjoyed watching the series together. It was interesting to see these moments in history, though told drunkenly, but that just made them amusing as well as (somewhat) educational.

Been hooked on this series since it premiered, but Seasons 1 and 2 are still the best. What a wacky, warped way to enjoy American History. You'll also actually learn something. The shtick: really drunk comedians and actors narrate the event, and then the Drunk History actors re-enact the story and lip-synch with the drunken idiot telling the story. It's hysterical.My teenage son and I really enjoy watching these episodes together, we laugh our heads off, and we've both been inspired to read books about the events they're covering. Kudos to them for selecting some of the more obscure historical events that haven't gotten their due in our classrooms or history books, and introducing us to new heroes. Especially love the stories about the Lincoln assassination, Al Capone, the FBI vs. Martin Luther King, and the invention of Coca-Cola.

Saw a snippet of this series on TV in the break room and had to have the DVDs! I think I learned more history through Drunk History than I have ever done in all my years of college! What makes it funny is the voice-over's in the story teller's voice, the cussing and the scenes of the story tellers barfing in the background or passing out. If my son was older, I'd let him watch it. I wish there was a PG-rated version but if that were the case, it would probably not be as funny. I also wished they had more American history vs historical events, such as the creation of Kellogg's cereal.

I can't wait for more Drunk History to air. It's educational and hilarious. A simplistic, perfect model. I wish the episodes were longer.**Update: We've watched the entire DVD set twice over now and it still proves hilarious. We don't even drink when we watch it. It's one of those shows that maintains its entertainment factor and/or increases said factor after multiple views. Another feature I really enjoy is the geographical construct the show applies. These aren't just drunk actors in a room reading history books -- They're on location! Interacting with the community! A relevant community at that! Aw. I even felt nostalgic when they showed Baltimore.

Do you want to laugh your butt off and learn something at the same time?If so, then this show is for you. Drunk History combines the ramblings of a fully intoxicated narrator with a literal word for word reenactment. It's chock full of recognizable guest stars and it will leave you fully entertained and educated.Invite your friends, crack open a cold one, a bag of popcorn and kick back for a night of lesser known historical facts as told by the chemically impaired. You will not be disappointed.

The box and case were a disappointment. Each corner shows wear on the box along with dents on the back. The case has a hole from something falling on it I assume. The disks look to be in decent shape though, so 3 stars. I love this series and with it being $10 this wasnt the worst buy ever. But if I had paid ANY more I would definitely return this item. As is, I feel it would be more of a hassle to send back for a better quality copy. Still. Im planning on sitting down to thoroughly enjoy binge watching this fantastic series very soon.

What a show. Learning History was NEVER so entertaining!! And you don't have to be Drunk to enjoy it, but a little Buzz Will ad a little extra kick to the lessons. The different Hosts are familiar Stars in the industry and you get to see them in a different light and enjoy their sense of humor in each episode, while being taught an off the wall lesson in history. If you don't find this show to be Hilarious, then you'd better check your pulse!

brilliant...thank you to all who took part...

Top marks for originality, really funny. Worth watching.

This is a unique show that most people have overlooked. You have people getting intoxicated and telling historical tales that, for the most part, are new to me. But what makes the show are the actors that re-enact the stories and mouth the words from the drunk storytellers. It's educational, hilarious, and should make you think twice about drinking alcohol ever again. I just wished they had more sober reveals. It was an interesting extra where the storytellers would give sober commentaries on their drunken performance. Most had no memory of most of what they said or did.

Diese DVD hat anscheinend einen amerikanischen Regionalcode und ist von einem DVD Player mit deutschem Regionalcode nicht abspielbar. Wäre ja nett gewesen, darüber mal einen Warnhinweis zu schreiben, liebes Amazon, dass ich eine rechtmäßig gekaufte DVD nicht werde abspielen können...zumindest bis ich das DIng statt in den DVD Player in den PC schiebe. Da läuft sie nämlich wunderbar. Soviel zum Sinn oder Unsinn des Regionalcodes...trotzdem ärgerlich. Diue Serie als solche ist ganz lustig, aber das ganze Theater nicht wert. Es gibt einzelne Episoden auf Youtube. Vielleicht hätten die doch auch gereicht.

Fun and educational.
