''WebVideo/HistoryOfTheEntireWorldIGuess'' and ''ComicBook/TheCartoonHistoryOfTheUniverse'', which are both historically accurate rather than HistoricalFiction but have strong DeadpanSnarker vibe.

Starting out with the Dawn of Man, cavemen discovering fire, cave paintings, and the art critic, the film skips to various 'important' areas of history usually with a unique interpretation of the events. Following this, the film touches on Moses receiving the Fifteen... er, Ten Commandments then takes time to waltz through the Roman Empire and end up at the Last Supper. They then sing and dance during UsefulNotes/TheSpanishInquisition, [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus though nobody expects it]]. The French Revolution comes next with Brooks playing King Louis XVI and the piss boy (DontAsk) that turns into [[PrinceAndPauper the Prince and the Pauper]] though it ends well through a miracle. Before the credits are 'ComingAttractions' for ''History of the World Part II''. The entertaining, history-based nature of this film makes it an example of TheAbridgedHistory.

A Date With Rosie Palms is no longer a trope


* ADateWithRosiePalms: The opening scene has the early hominids take a bipedal stance, and proceed to loudly masturbate.

* ArtisticLicenseHistory: Quite a bit, all of it most likely being deliberate. One notable bit is several people in the 'Roman Empire' sketch talk about Christianity as if it is a distinct religion from Judaism, but the very last scene of that sketch has Comicus catering The Last Supper. Pre-crucifixion Rome would have considered Christianity to be a minor sect of Judaism if they knew about it at all.

Gag Boobs has been renamed to Boob Based Gag. Changing to the proper trope where appropriate and cutting misuse.
