The Drunk and On Drugs Happy Funtime Hour
The Drunk and On Drugs Happy Funtime Hour is a Canadian television comedy series, which aired during the 2011 television season on Action.

Described by its producers as "Curb Your Enthusiasm after it got smashed in the head with a hammer and force-fed liquor and drugs", the show stars Trailer Park Boys actors John Paul Tremblay, Robb Wells and Mike Smith as fictionalized versions of themselves. The fictional trio are starring in a new sketch comedy series, Happy Funtime Hour, but their production goes awry when a mad scientist named Doctor Funtime (Maury Chaykin) forces them to ingest a hallucinogenic substance he created. The actors must endure unpredictable events while constantly meeting different characters. The show features high quality prosthetic and makeup work to portray a wide range of off-the-wall characters, including pirates, superheroes, mafia, WWII Canadian (sandwich) soldiers (armed with live rounds), drug dealers, cult members, ambulance drivers, etc. Particularly disturbing characters abound, such as an armless pizza chef, a cleaner who appears to use his enormous dangling tongue, and an old gypsy woman who pays for "sugar," a euphemism for male loving. The sequences between characters feature segues such as tvs or radios, and the show features shifts of perspective from present day to WWII or pirates.

Cast
The supporting cast includes Maury Chaykin, John Dunsworth, Patrick Roach, Jay Baruchel, Richard Collins, Amy Sedaris and Luke Gordon. All three main actors also play numerous minor and one-off characters, utilizing an array of prosthetics.

Premiere
The series premiered in Canada on 22 July 2011, and aired two episodes three Friday evenings in a row. Due to poor reception and also because of the death of Maury Chaykin, the series has been cancelled.  Chaykin's "mad scientist" character had already been re-cast once; musician Alex Lifeson was originally set to take on that role before bowing out in early 2010.
