The historical cosplayers relish their parts, lip-syncing drunken monologues with palpable joy. There is also an undeniable thrill in recognizing unexpected actors as they mouth along to incoherent rambles.

Some will find it offensive, immoral, irresponsible--a highly defensible position. It's also very funny, a thing of twisted genius and, for the next eight weeks possibly the most original comedy on television.

It’s a shtick that could get old fast. Instead, it keeps getting better in the sophomore season of this hilarious series that will have you laughing and learning.

How funny you find all this basically depends on how funny you find drunk people. And not fake-movie drunk people, but realistically drunk people: a little confused, no longer so good with words, and very sleepy.

More often than not, watching Drunk History is like being the only sober person at a party where none of the people present are your friends.

When you have talent like Adam Scott (John Wilkes Booth), Bob Odenkirk (Nixon) and Jack Black (Elvis) on hand, why not let them improv their own material? They're wasted as puppets trapped in this sad, thin vaudeville.

Drunk History is a good-natured show with no inflated aspirations. But like a drunk in a game of darts, it doesn’t hit the target very often.

It's not laugh out loud funny but more like a smile, inside your head, for not very long funny.

It's a web video's worth of laughs stretched into a 30 minute show. Listening to drunks straining to remember details from a synopsis they read earlier in the day will either be tedious or hilarious to you. To me, its a colossal waste of the talents appearing on the show. It would be like getting A-listers to be in your frat houses sketch show.
