VIDEO: Trailer Released For GODS OF FOOD Mockumentary Series From CollegeHumor

CollegeHumor today released the trailer for Gods of Food, the mockumentary culinary profile series set to debut Thursday, August 8 on their subscription-based streaming service DROPOUT.

The six-episode season will skewer the gamut of fine dining tropes, from the overly rustic chef to the esoteric molecular gastronomist, and will feature celebrity chefs Hugh Acheson (Top Chef), Richard Blais (Top Chef), Jet Tila (Food Network) and Alison Roman (The New York Times) commentating throughout each episode of the season. An individual parodied chef will be profiled in each of the six episodes, sharing their culinary journey to creating unusual versions of delicacies and restaurant concepts, presented within the show as ingenious creations.

Don Fanelli (Nightcap) will star as Anthony D'Anthony, Krizia Bajos (The Casagrandes) as Julia Splenderpoot, Kimia Behpoornia (Abby's) as Blynn, Leonard Kelly-Young (Gone Girl) as Giuseppe Greco, Tracy Vilar (Partners) as Laura Sepanowitz and Helen Hong (Inside Llewyn Davis) as Pak Jang-mi. Gods of Food emphasizes the hilarity of our increasingly more food-frenzied culture and the chefs that often contribute to it. The series was created and written by CollegeHumor cast member and head writer Rekha Shankar, who also serves as an executive producer. In addition to Shankar, Gods of Food is executive produced by Sam Reich, David Cyr Kerns and Adam Frucci. The series is directed by Michael Schaubach.
