Carla Hay Culture Mix 1d
This well-edited documentary gives a breezy and often-hilarious overview of famous comedic impersonations of U.S. presidents and former U.S. presidential candidates, from the 1960s to the 2020s. It's a good mix of archival clips and exclusive interviews. Go to Full Review Warren Cantrell The Playlist 1d

An engaging and generally lighthearted look covering the past 12 presidential administrations with the comedians that played politicians. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
