About Drunk History:
Based on the popular web series, Drunk History is the liquored-up narration of our nation's history. Host Derek Waters, along with an ever-changing cast of actors and comedians, travels across the country to present the rich tales that every city in this land has to offer. Booze helps bring out the truth. It's just that sometimes the truth is a little incoherent.

Dude,Will's lipsync at the beginning was so perfect I legit thought this was some sorta special episode where the actors actually talk
Same!
...Me too...
I didn't even realize until I read your comment lmao
Same! 😂😂
time stamp?
Let's hope Netflix or some other streaming service picks up this hit that CC is throwing out in the trash.
Yessssss! i miss this show so much!!
@@Griftyfox it's on HULU but i dont think they are picking up new seasons
Watching Will Farrell say "I'm squirting dust" slayed me.
Its not will ferrel
Its Duncan trussel
*slew
HOW COULD U POSSIBLY CANCEL THIS SHOW?? It's one of my favorite shows *of all time.* If it's because of the pandemic, then just put it on pause. Don't cancel your best show...Are you guys insane? I would rather you cancel ANY other show on CC.
I agree wholeheartedly. Way too good to go out this way. A show of this quality has got to get picked up by one of the big streaming services. Let's hope so at least. Best Cleopatra and Joan of Arc, EVER.
NO!!!! THEY'RE CANCELING IT?!?!!!
Pretty much everything else on comedy central is trash. That's probably why they're canceling it. The show doesn't fit for the target main audience that comedy central has built up
@@2GoatsInATrenchCoat Like Adult Swim. 20 years ago it was amazing stuff. And then gradually it became more and more lowest common denominator, cheapest-to-animate trash.
@@melissasaint3283 Adult Swim's animations have a much higher production quality on average now than when the network began. However, Aqua Teen Hunger force, from season 1 in 2000 until its end, was animated entirely in Adobe After Effects and had more soul than almost anything made by AS these days. Venture Bros and Superjail are the exceptions and had quality hand-drawn animation especially for the early days of Adult Swim, but most of the stuff on the network was _very_ low budget back then (12 ounce mouse, perfect hair forever, Space Ghost, etc.). I'm pretty sure Venture Bros and Superjail were cancelled specifically because it costed so much to animate every episode.
Now Rick and Morty, Mr. Pickles, and other bland cookie-cutter cartoons and shows are all Adult Swim has to offer and they are becoming mainstream and lame. AS lost what made it crazy and new in the first place and it seems like it's becoming Comedy Central's little brother as opposed to its own unique thing. Ballmastrz actually is pretty good though and I hope it keeps going, but still doesn't have animation as good as Superjail sadly.
Honestly after Adult Swim cancelled their most popular show in years, World Peace, I had a feeling the network would inevitably decline
*Griswold:* I hate Edgar Allan Poe
*Griswold:* has a potrait of Edgar Allan Poe hanging on the wall in his bedroom?
U kno why

Marlene Dietrich I mean Jefferson has a bust in his home of Hamilton sooooo
wasnt it just part of the joke for the script!=
Comedy Central. "Let's cancel an interesting, humourous, and educational show that is always a contender for Emmy's and play South Park for 22 hours a day. Wait. Let's buy that Daria spin-off because people know what Daria is." Claß.
That sucks!..... There's a Daria spin off? How the hell could that work?
Kee To it’s a reboot/spinoff focusing on the character Jodie. Produced and voiced by Tracee Ellis Ross
stop hating on South Park!!!! I know who Daria is and that show always sucked.
I can't effing believe this! The Cleopatra episode alone should have put this series on the m-effing map. Soooo wrong. Comedy Central, what the eff?? I don't know you anymore. What, did Putin make you his b* too?
I think CS is run by 6 year olds who still like doodie jokes.
R.I.P Drunk History, still more educational than the history channel.
Is it possible, that the executives at Comedy Central, were visited by species from another world?
Hell yeah
I think those same aliens also got to Netflix... they cancelled Patriot
Act. Boo.
It's back
not tolerable w the censorship bleeps ffs
Kirsten Dunst absolutely killed it. I could NOT stop laughing! 😂
Came here to be surprised no one was talking about it! She was killing it!
she is one of the best actresses there are. In Fargo she was amazingly good
Dude, seriously! I legit do not know why the comments arent filled with praise for her performance. I was crying with laughter when she acted out the part, “I’ve just lost a child, please lay off my back, I’m trying to recuperate, um…that’s all there is to it. *ptthh*” 😂🤣😂🤣 Freaking comedic gold.
That one last look she gives straight at the camera!
It's amazing to be reminded that Edgar Allen Poe wasn't famous during his lifetime when he has become so timeless!
I think if I didn't knew the others of his literary circles, and the connection to lines like that of Lovecraft and Albert Acher before (or some such guy,same long drafting athmosfear writing, with no cause, smile, a scale, wrong.. which is why it is even more horrible..Because, everything in current narrative is horrible, wrong. faceless. Ruling with thousand souls..) Poe inspired, or the moments of life those best of Poe (to me) was written, would I even .. Weird, stories are tied to stories of snakes and stories.and us and dreams, -thoughts run my head wildly hardly leaving a mark, yet .. we have said the rest of our mind will handle the rest.. But think of stories, good, positive stories, Where the underdog wins, evil is human yet unity wins..can't harm have the collective narratives even an ounce to insanity.. :-D Bear with me, I wrote that in a manic burst, and was about to delete it. But maybe if you people know some manics, imagine your brain suddenly going off-track, hijacking your body. Hope this gives understanding. As I assure you I am quite , well insane but u know, not.. Go to work and live a normal life mental disease, bipolar disorder. Usually I would have deleted, but sometimes I just don't give a fck. :-) all good!
@@Robustacap english is not my native language, so probably i didnt understand all you said. But i get the vibe that you somehow feel hijacked... my friend breath, relax, its not all about supreme knowledge, or sucess in arts or writing... its about love, care, simple things, for you, for me, for us all, with good heart to harvest our seeds of friendship. We are all in this toggether, and we make a good book out of our lives if we understand and try to give value to the simple but powerfull thigs of life. Sorry if my opinion was to invasive. Big Hug from Portugal
@@SalComposer Yeah, I agree on just about everything. You don't feel like our own stories are hijacked, and directed? Limited, manipulated? Dismissed? Reality is stories and reality is unstable as orange skinsuits genius..
Also, I really think Poe over-valued, just my opinion I know so no need to defend Poe...
But if I hear one more time The Raven, Lenore.... I will rip my ears for evermore, to hear Poe nevermore.. Just saw a play act of it the day before yesterday..
Woe be following me, since I cursed upon he :-)
On the other note, I know I am not but mere what we are, for reflections in Indras net are we, None@All in All@None, storyforms filling the Void and I too believe we could do good, just... need doing! And positive thinking and whatever the hell one needs to change his story into something that will change the narrative back to human well being rather than propaganda and profits.
Hearts and greetings from Finland!
Same can be said about most artists.
@@RedLP5000S Yup, in Death there is weird value, and nobody wants to compliment a living person, as in todays predatory system it would mean weakness or some shit like that... But after death? Even Skrillex can be venerated ;-)
12:15 I was like "wow! Agatha Christie really does look like Kirsten Dunst!" and then I realized that obviously it's just a picture of Kirsten Dunst.
I'm drunk.
Hahaha that's adorable!
I didn’t know this was getting canceled till I came to the comment section... I really love these videos man
jaren tippett IT IS!?
I would like to see some making of footage of the actors trying to lip sync all the drunken ramblings.
I bet you would pervert
sonny burgess ???
They play it over loud speakers until it’s perfect
So, Kirsten Dunst (Agatha Christie) and Jesse Plemons (the police investigator), (and as Edgar Allan Poe), are married in real life. And are currently in an amazingly intense movie called Power of the Dog (2021) as husband and wife. The movie also stars Benedict Cumberbatch, and an actor you've probably seen a dozen times in other movies but won't recognize in this one, Kodi Smit-McPhee. Just sharing a bit of fun trivia.
From a series of skits on Funny or Die to Comedy Central, Drunk History really did well for itself. I hope they find a new home for it as there are still more stories to tell.
I don't know why but that "Wow." at 13:38 was so on point it made me laugh
I had to watch the nihilistic rant and the end of the Poe story like, SIX times !! 🤣🤣❤️🤘 good shit!
You can tell when he doesn’t like a guest lmao
You think he doesn’t like some of them? Haha I’m just curious, no offense, I never even picked up on it I guess I’m just oblivious 😄😂 what made you pick up on it? I’m lacking social skills apparently 😭
It seemed to me like he didn’t like the last one. Not a shocker though, she was extremely annoying.
That plane prop is amazing 🤣
Will was so goddamn happy to be dancing around in that plane costume. Had me rolling!!!!!!🤣
'Hornswaggled by a Dick' is one of Poe''s true masterpieces
I highly recommend the book about Roald Dahl's time in America as a British Spy trying to help get America into WW2. It's called "The Irregulars"
This has ALWAYS been one of my favorite shows! The best kind of teaching imo combining comedy and history with accompanying images. Brilliant.
Poe V Griswold might as well be American's first Rap beef
I read that you guys are discontinuing Drunk History. 😭😭😭 I hope it’s not true, I love you guys. What can I do to keep you alive!? Lol
I just heard comedy central pulled the plug on my favorite tv show , jerks! Shout out to Derek Waters for the laughs and knowledge, and I hope you can keep going regardless of network whims!!! #savedrunkhistory
Cancel your cable. You should've done that like 10 years ago
@@largepoodle6036 I had to have cable for all the shows I like. Netflix and hulu suck balls lol
@@EmilyKresl the internet has everything, it's your fault if you cant find what you want to see on the internet. Its all there, its all in 4k 1080p 60fps.
Kirsten Dunst was perfectly in sync! One of the best performances in this show.
We can only hope Hulu or Netflix will pick this show back up.
A to the MEEEEN
What an opportunity! It's good to live in an age where this is a possibility.
someone at netlfix !
Roald Dahl also wrote Matilda. I loved that. It was also the first full book I read in Spanish when I learned. ☺️
From the post I learn that this has been cancelled. THAT SUCKS! I just discovered Drunk History. I'm a history major in college. This was great! Combined 2 things I love, history and drinking.
Drunk History videos teach me more about these people than high school did.
Jennifer Coots Drunk History reminds me of when my dad would tell me historical anecdotes. He would put the little bit of human quirks and foibles that drunk history does. Things like that make you want to read more about something and realize that current events are just history happening in real time. Although we don’t really know behind the scenes stuff until decades later.
No is it true they're cancelling Drunk history? Please don't
What?NO! I will start drinking after 6 years of sobriety if they do! And..read about history.. No! Tell people about history!! And make people toxicated and then make them tell a story! Hey, is this what you're doing even legal?
@@Robustacap come workout with the FRANk!
Didn't even think this, but where the hell am I gonna find a drama class to act out those stories?!!
Please do not cancel/'uncancel'! Otherwise, we'll have to resort to doing it ourselves! These people are providing a public service, saving the rest of us from perpetual hangovers!
Yes ... yes, we will!!! @HermesSonofZeus, you must lead the way. ;)
You really should not cancel this show
They mention BFG and The Witches for Dahl but not Matilda?
He was drunk I think you can cut him some slack lol. But also Matilda the book was ok. The witches & BFG were better 🙂
and totally ignored that he was a renowned short story writer first
@@eilzmo you I'm
Ummm, or a little story called Charlie & the Chocolate Factory
Watching this after hearing it’s being cancelled:( seriously wtf
I wrote in asking CC to keep the show on and everyone else needs to as well.
WITE FOX they get views in millions don’t they?
It's because the internet is killing TV. It's only a matter of time before broadcast television is obsolete
@WITE FOX You really don't think the internet is killing TV? RUclips stars are more famous than TV and movies stars .moe
@WITE FOX you must not know many teenagers
RUclips: How many ads do you want on your video?
Comedy Central: Yes
What ads? :D
No ads. I'm on mobile
Agatha Christie: The Original Gone Girl
the ending was so prophetic about the show. Did they tape this after they got the news or is it just typical Poe endings.
The Bit were Roals Dahl Crashes and the does fly is a bit missleading. The crash occured on 19 September 1940, when flying a Gloster Gladiator. By Aptil 1941 he was Fit and flying Hawker Hurricanes. In Greece. One of only 18 RAF aircraft in Greece. When the Germans invaded Greece. On the 15th of April he shoot down a JU 88. On the 16th of April he shoot down a JU 88. On the 20th of April during the Battle of Athens the remaing 12 Hurricanes attack upto 150 German Aircraft, a mix of JU 87 and JU 88 with cover from Bf 109 and Bf 110, He was given a cradit of a kill. In May a Vichy Potez 630 and on the 15 June 1941 a JU 88. It was only after this was he invalided back home, when his headaches became to much. So he was a Fighter Ace, Spy, Author.
Little did Griswold know his great great grandson would love Vacations.
Drinking + Drunk History = Heaven
I'll miss this show but i can always re-watch my favorite ones so that's a plus lol
Black Fdr had me cracking up
Seriously the host looks like he's questioning every decision he's ever made to lead him to a job he hates.
That bit with Will Ferrell in the plane is golden
That “woah”at 15:44 💀🐨💀
Right?
Drunk history is the best thing to ever happen. Thank you
I can't unhear Steve O's voice the entire first bit
I bet Derek was so tired of dealing with drunk people, he just seemed like he is not enjoying himself anymore.
Ladinum's ingredients are not mysterious. It was a little alcohol and a lot of opium.
"Holograms haven't been invented yet, and yet I'm calling him a hologram..". Lmao
Lol that news headline 🤣
that part at the end lol :)
I just found my new favorite playlist to binge
6:30 I busted out laughing when I saw him in that plane 😂😂😂
I'm glad I'm not the only one who was all about that plane costume and Will grinning ear to ear while flying it.
Jesse Plemons is always fantastic!
no couches were stained in the making of this film
So funny to hear a history lesson done the correct way.
Drunk!
The man playing Poe also played Captain Kirk in Black Mirror episode.
Lol he has played a lot of people.
It's meth Damon
He plays Mojo Jojo in Breaking Bad.
I don’t know who Allison Rich is but she’s hilarious
Yessss!! Love this show and will be honest I'm tipsy bored scrolling threw youtube and am so so so damn happy this was suggested to me!!
I've been giggling & snort-laughing the whole time.
The ending is awesome!! Fun one!
Duncan looking absolutely fabulous!
Is that the dude from midnight gospel?
Jared Coates yeah the conversations he had were actually from a podcast from some years back
Saw your comment and I got excited hoping it was Duncan Trussel!
the last 30 seconds of this video are the best, aww :)
Lmfao the accidental drunken 4th wall breaking
Nice Video. Good job.
This was great
We need Justin McIlroy as one of the drunk historians. Maybe with Griffin and Travis as the historical persons.
Riddle Me Piss Boys!
Love finding fellow McElfam in the wild!
This is great
So weird to see Daly from Black Mirror's USS McCallister as a constable dude. 😅 I also love that Arthur Conan Doyle got in on the mystery! 🤣
The guy playing Poe looks like Philip Seymour Wahlberg
Duncan Trussell looks like he could be TJ Miller's cousin.
Yes. So sounds like him too!
@@LAkadian and they have the same laugh and sense of humour
"As your gods we demand that you fix our boat. Fix our broke boat..." 😂😂😂--Hawaii episode
Will Farrell as Author Roald Dahl.... Super Funny!!
Nothing like a Griswold family Christmas lol
Narrator: Ran out of gas... crashes... then gas tank exploded.
Me puzzled: what?!?! Exploded without gas??? O.o
What a great show. Too bad there won't be any more after next season.
Waaait Duncan as in the guy from Midnight Gospel?? Hahaha i felt like i was listening to a spacecast
Great guy and show
Wonderful 💜
Great video! 👍🏻🤣
Drunk History deserves its own RUclips or Netflix series outside CC.
Duncan Trussell deserves to be in the title
Had to scroll way too many comments to find him mentioned, and I wholeheartedly agree.
"... eloquent ass tongue " circa 18:26 that is just fkn hilarious LMFAO
4:48 where he dies .....
lmaooooo idk why but that was hilarious 😂😩
Dramatically hilarious Ending.
Not just a spy, Roald Dahl was a serious honey trap 😂
Man every time I hear Duncan Trussell speak I just see Clancy walking around with his conversation recorder #midnightgospel
Censored Drunk History?
WTF!!
Surely you can bring Drunk History to another network!?????
We need a petition, we need another network to pick it up, and then we need Comedy Central to RUE THE DAY THEY CANCELED SOMETHING WE ALL LOVE!!!!! ✊
Go fund me so they can just do it independently!
I love this show. It's so very clever.
Damnit, RIP DRUNK HISTORY!.🍻🙌
Meth Damon!
netflix should save drunk history.
"Drunk, crazy guy who wrote about ravens - that sounds awesome" :-) :-) Now I quoth nevermore, except tintinabulation perhaps best word ever & I still have no clue what a Runic Rhyme might be
Comedy Central... you f***ed it up. Great.
6:30 Will's smile always cracks me up some reason.
Who? Will feral? Its Duncan Trussel
is it just me or is duncan trussel everywhere right now lol i love it
This is better than most of my lectures, and I've been sober for 15 years!
I agree
congrats!!
