An overview of the catastrophic events and more that happened in the year 2020, with a comedy trait

I can’t imagine this will be good to watch in 2022 or later, but it was both kinds of funny to see how much I’d forgotten about 2020

I was dying from not only laughter, but also the accuracy of it the entire time. Do with that what you will. In short, watch this.

Funny recap of the year, watch once to say you have

Funny rewind of all the ridiculousness of 2020. Amazing how much I forgot about. Worth the watch.

Good laugh, satirical look back on a terrible year. Hopefully it will make you smile through the pain.

It makes a tragic year look funny, lightens the mood, gives you an all over summary of what the hell even happened to us.

A pretty funny mockumentary overall. A bit left leaning at times and not true to reality but a fun watch mostly.

Olivia Sanderson

It’s a super funny and well written documentary about the events of 2020, and it has some super famous actors in as well. Defo recommend.

Not for everyone, but I could not stop laughing from start to finish. The satirical tone is very much on par with The Onion or Hard Times.
