Normally I would say no. However, with Mel Brooks producing, I will hold out hope!

I was unimpressed with Hulu doing a show for "History of the world Part 2"...

Really? I really liked it. It felt exactly like the original, but with updated jokes.

I just felt the jokes landed differently when they are written by committie. They didnt have much teeth and they werent punching up as much, they were making fun of mundane things like alchoholism... (Which is now considered a mental health problem, less of a societal one)

Did they really? Not surprised I hadn’t heard about it

If you enjoyed the original, it's worth a watch for sure.
