Drunk History Australia is an Australian educational comedy television series based on the American series of the same name, which is in turn based on the web series Funny or Die.[1]

Description

In each episode, an inebriated celebrity struggles to recount a historical event, while actors reconstruct and enact the narrator's anecdotes while lip syncing the dialogue.[2]

In addition to celebrity guest stars, the show's characters are played by regulars such as David Collins, Yvie Jones, Cameron Knight, Adam Dunn, Sara West, Greta Lee Jackson, Aaron Chen, Paul Ayre, Lana Kington, Harry Keep, Seaton Kay-Smith, Bruce Guo, Emma Thompson and Hamish Adams-Cairns.

Production

A pilot was commissioned in 2018 by Network Ten for Pilot Week, in which a 30-minute pilot episode aired along with several other new show pilots.[3][4] The episode featured stories about Ned Kelly and Phar Lap and was presented by comedians Stephen Curry & Rhys Darby.[4][5]

The first season was commissioned in 2019[6] by Network Ten and was released prematurely on 27 March 2020 on their streaming service 10 Play,[7] prior to its official premiere on 14 September 2020.[8][9]

Controversy
