IFC
From the first time we saw the trailer for Will Ferrell’s new IFC show The Spoils of Babylon, we knew that things were about to get weird. A spoof of the epic period dramas we’ve all come to know and love, the series stars Tobey Maguire, Kristin Wiig, and Haley Joel Osment. The first of six episodes premiered on January 9, and ICYMI here are a few more clips from the show. Be warned — you are not prepared for the weirdness therein:

Here’s hoping we see lots of Tim Robbins, because seriously. How awesome does he look in this?
Epic Theme Song & Opening Sequence
I’m not sure, but I feel like those trees and cars were kinda fake.
Squirrel Stew And Oil
If you didn’t laugh over that “extrapolate” line, then this may not be the show for you. If you did laugh, then tune into the IFC for more of this unbelievably strange series. Call us cray, but that squirrel stew is reason enough to keep us interested.
