I just watched the boxing segment. It was weird. Entertaining but weird. Al was entertaining. I liked how he (and the others) lip-synced the exact words the drunk girl said. I guess the premise of the show is they get people drunk and then have them explain historical events? Are they really drunk, or just acting?

Honestly, I thought the boxing segment was the weakest one, although Al made a great Hitler. I thought the show overall was pretty decent. I had never seen the show and had sorta low expectations.

Yeah!! It's a really interesting show. As I understand it, they record the drunk comedians retelling the stories and then they plan out the reenactments based on what the drunk person narrates. When they are shooting the reenactments, the drunk person's voice is played back on set so that the actors can lip sync to exactly what they say. Pretty cool concept for a show, and often leads to some seriously funny scenes. I thought Al as Hitler was great. I disagree with Big Spoon that they didn't give Al enough to do. That's about as big a part as most actors get in Drunk History other than the lead character in a given story. Hopefully Al comes back on a future episode!
I couldn't tell a dirt clod from a plate of caviar.
