Funny or Die Presents is a half-hour sketch comedy show that spawned from the comedy website Funny or Die, created by Will Ferrell and Adam McKay.
Funny or Die Presents was created in June 2008 when HBO bought a stake in Funnyordie.com and commissioned that at least 10 episodes be broadcast on HBO as part of the deal.
In the first episode the network is described as: What you are about to see is nothing short of a miracle.
Tonight marks a departure from our usual business model as we join the ever declining world of broadcast television.
-Ed Haligan, Head of West Coast sales & marketing Each episode of Season 1 starts in a white room with Ed Haligan (played by Steve Tom) who introduces the show and leads into a starting theme and a "network schedule" which describes the sketches being featured in that particular episode.
