Cunk on Earth (2022)
7/10
Silly parody of pretentious history docs
1 February 2023
I do agree with another reviewer that this is somewhat of a Baron-Cohen ripoff (minus the misogynst rant about female comics) in that the interviewer feigns ignorance of the subject to get unusual responses and reactions from the "experts." However, if you like history or historical documentaries, but hate the pretentiousness of some of those shows, you will likely enjoy this. I chuckled quite a bit and found the series an enjoyable way to pass some time. No you won't really learn anything new, this is pretty much History 101, and yes, it's not a particularly original comedic set up but it is enjoyable and worth the watch. The humor is silly and at times crudely funny, but it is funny.
