Season 1 Reviews
Los Angeles Times
Robert Lloyd
I was not at all sure what to expect from the series, and though it takes a moment to get up on its legs, once it established its rhythms and breadth, I was completely sold.
Newsday
Verne Gay
Some very funny stuff, ultimately overwhelmed by the very indulgent stuff.
New York Times
James Poniewozik
In an era of dutiful brand extensions and pointless revivals, it turns out to be history that's surprisingly worth repeating.
The Playlist
Brian Tallerico
The highlights of this event series will hopefully bring young viewers back to his [Mel Brooks] great films, some of the best comedies of all time, and maybe even provide a nice career boost for talented modern comedy writers like Kroll.
TIME Magazine
Judy Berman
For an unnecessary sequel realized in the age of infinite derivative content, History of the World, Part II is pretty damn funny.
AV Club
David Cote
Feels like Drunk History with PG-rated dad jokes.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
Why, it's a wacky melding of the old and the new.
San Francisco Chronicle
G. Allen Johnson
Am I supposed to laugh at this infantile stuff?
indieWire
Steve Greene
For a long-awaited sequel with this much leeway to rewrite history, there should be more reasons to celebrate.
NPR
David Bianculli
It's consistent with the approach and the outrageous humor of Mel Brooks over more than 70 years of provoking big bursts of laughter. "History Of The World: Part II" is barely historical, but it's fairly hysterical.
USA Today
Kelly Lawler
For some, especially fans of Brooks and the movie, the laughs may be there. But most of the time it falls flat.
CNN.com
Brian Lowry
The show squeaks by, barely, though this is one of those exercises where a little fast-forwarding through "History" couldn't hurt.
Hollywood Reporter
Daniel Fienberg
I suspect every viewer's hit-to-miss ratios will be different, but I found enough in the positive column to keep me going.
Cultured Vultures
Huw Saunders
The good sketches are few and far between, and, surprisingly, concentrated toward the final episode - if you gave up long before then, nobody would blame you.
RogerEbert.com
Nick Allen
An enterprise like "History of the World, Part II" will be hit-or-miss by design, but it gets enough inspired sketches, game cameo appearances, and plainly laugh-out-loud moments from its clever silliness to recommend it.
Variety
Amber Dowling
That mixed bag is perhaps what makes this the perfectly imperfect Brooks sequel viewers have been waiting for.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
The results are so dismal, they make one pine for the end of civilization.
Chicago Tribune
Nina Metz
Not all of it works. In fact, a lot of it doesn't.
Rolling Stone
Alan Sepinwall
More or less what you might have expected from a long, long, long-delayed sequel to the movie. I rolled my eyes when some sketches kept coming back again and again, but I also laughed more than enough to feel glad I watched it all.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
As uneven as History of the World, Part II can be, it's always taking a chance and time is on its side: The sketches are only a few minutes long and each episode only about 30.
