[ # ] History of the World: Part 2 is here, and it was worth the wait
March 6th, 2023 under Hulu, Mel Brooks

If you are like me and watched History of the World: Part 1 when you were a kid, then you have anxiously been waiting for the sequel ever since then. Well, thanks to Hulu, it is finally here as a 4-day, 8-hour event starting today! Each day, we will get two new episodes until the epic conclusion on Thursday.

The first episode starts off with Mel Brooks, the man who has been around since Adam and Eve. Now you know why he gave such an accurate account of history in his 1981 movie.

And on that note, he told the current producers that they could do what they wanted. However, no repeats. And they broke that rule, but I am not allowed to tell you how they did.

Anyways, after we get to see Brooks looking as sexy as he did in 1981, it is time to watch history come alive! They start it off with the Civil War and an appearance by the great President Abraham Lincoln! This is one of the sketches that will make more than one appearance during the event.

From there, we go to the Kama Sutra, being pitched as a book. Did you know it wasn’t only a sex book?

Next up, we go to Russia to meet the Romanovs before they were killed off. The Tsar’s daughter Anastasia got away during the mass shooting of her family, and we finally find out what happened to her as her story goes on for a few segments.

If that is not hot enough, it is time for fire to be created. But it is not as on fire as William Shakespeare’s writers’ room.

And now it is time for episode 2, and what a day it is. It is D-Day, and it is time for bathroom humor.

They will go there with Jesus because why not! No one is safe in this History of the World.

Before we go for the night, we get to meet Shirley Chisholm, whose life is like a sitcom as they turn the first African American woman who runs for President’s life into one. And it works.

Everything works! Well, except for a bit they do tomorrow, but I will tell you about that then.

Seriously, good things come to those who wait, and something really good came from waiting.

Especially for the cast, which includes Wanda Sykes, Nick Kroll, Ike Barinholtz, Pamela Adlon, Tim Baltz, Zazie Beetz, Jillian Bell, Quinta Brunson, Dove Cameron, D’Arcy Carden, Parvesh Cheena, Ronny Chieng, Rob Corddry, Danny DeVito, David Duchovny, Hannah Einbinder, Jay Ellis, Josh Gad, Kimiko Glenn, Brandon Kyle Goodman, Jake Johnson, Richard Kind, Johnny Knoxville, Lauren Lapkus, Jenifer Lewis, Poppy Liu, Joe Lo Truglio, Jason Mantzoukas, Ken Marino, Jack McBrayer, Zahn McClarnon, Charles Melton, Kumail Nanjiani, Brock O’Hurn, Andrew Rannells, Emily Ratajkowski, Sam Richardson, Nick Robinson, Seth Rogen, Sarah Silverman, Timothy Simons, J.B. Smoove, David Wain, Taika Waititi, Reggie Watts, and Tyler James Williams. I am sure they all grew up watching the movie, and now they get to appear in the hilarious sequel.

If you are going to go enormous, then you have to have a cast that is as big as the biggest dinosaur.
