Funny or Die Presents…
The result of Funny or Die’s partnership with HBO premieres with a cast featuring Kirkman, Ferrell, and Cheadle. Ferrell and McKay are among the executive producers, as well as former SNL head writer and site creative director Steele. Steele explains how he was wooed to join the new production:
We worked together there for five years. They were always trying to get me to come out to California. I felt like I had done everything I wanted to do at Saturday Night Live, and this was a strange and wonderful opportunity to be a part of the Internet and stay in television as well.
