1000 Ways to Die takes a tongue-in-cheek approach to death through its presentation of stories derived from myths and science, and the show makes liberal use of artistic license to significantly embellish or change the circumstances of real-life incidents that resulted in death for greater entertainment value. A frequently recurring motif is that of unsympathetic individuals' choices backfiring on them, resulting in death. The show is filled with black humor (particularly in the narration) which tempers the otherwise somber theme of death. It portrays the deaths using live-action recreations of the events along with expert and sometimes witness testimony, also using graphic CGI animations, similar to those used in the popular TV show CSI, to illustrate the ways people have died. A narration provides background information within each death-story, which all end with titles that are puns on popular figures of speech. 1000 Ways To Die is often rated TV-14 for graphic, gruesome violence, as well as strong language, use of strong sex related dialogue and grotesque portrayals in a comical way.
