'80s comedy gold!
7 March 2023
If you grew up in the '80s and have a shred of appreciation for Mel Brook's comedy style you will love this, after all I have been waiting around 40 years for this and it doesn't disappoint! Just realize it's not a history class, nor is it for the politically touchy on either side of the fence, you know who you are!

This is a show that breaks the rules and will have you on the floor laughing if you have a sense of humor and don't take things too seriously (and are up on your history and pop culture, I know, really tough ask). I mean the Hitler glitterstache durring the Hitler on Ice, and the Jackrasp skit had me in stitches on the floor, complete with J. Knoxville and Jason Acuña (aka Wee Man)! Definitely took comedy to the next level with this one, and I'm sure making up for lost time!

It was hard to say a single skit took a wrong step on this one, from the Romonov twitter skit to U. S. Grant just trying to catch a buzz by going on a "secret mission" to West Virginia thanks to Lincoln, it was all just brilliant!
