Funny or Die Introduces Its Hilarious 1986 TV Lineup Michael Lee, January 10, 2012January 10, 2012 When Adam McKay and Will Ferrell created Funny or Die, no one thought that it would have taken off the way that it did. From a humble video about a drunk landlord baby starring its two creators to Don Cheadle planning as a sociopathic Captain Planet, the comedic website aims to please all audiences and stir up some social issues as well. But now the site heads to a decade before the age of the internet existed. The 1980s. Headlining some of their series for the 1986 program is Casper Van Dien, Jennifer Beals, Soleil Moon Frye, Robert Davi, Ray Wise, and many many more.
