Bottoms Up! 'Drunk History' Is Returning With New Episodes This Fall

Pour yourself a drink because an all-time fan favorite is officially making its comeback. Comedy Central has announced that *Drunk History* is returning this fall with fresh content. The Emmy-winning series is breaking its long hiatus to deliver three brand-new short-form episodes to eager viewers. The wildly popular educational comedy series hasn’t aired new original installments in years. Fans who missed the chaotic, slurred storytelling will finally get another round of comedic history lessons in the coming months.

This time around, the show is taking a slightly different distribution path. Instead of sticking strictly to traditional cable broadcasting, the upcoming trio of short-form episodes will premiere directly on Comedy Central’s official YouTube channel. Shifting the short-form project to digital platforms aligns naturally with how modern audiences consume quick-hit comedy. YouTube has long served as a popular hub for clips and highlights from the series, making it an ideal destination for this new batch of mini-episodes.

*Drunk History* was co-created by Derek Waters and Jeremy Konner. The show originally built a massive pop-culture following by blending real historical events with intoxicated narrators and lip-syncing actors. Over its run on Comedy Central, it earned critical acclaim and major awards, including an Emmy. While specific historical topics and guest stars for the upcoming trio of episodes remain unannounced, the network's update guarantees that the long-standing drought of original material is over. Comedy lovers can expect the new short-form installments to drop sometime later this autumn. So clear your schedules for this fall, subscribe to Comedy Central’s video channels, and prepare for another round of hilarious, liquid-fueled historical recaps.
