This season has been full of time travel shows, but Making History is the only comedy version of them. What Fox does with Making History tonight at 8:30p will change your perception of the season’s theme.
Dan (Adam Pally) is a Computer Science Professor at a college and he has secret place where he goes to on the weekends. That place is Boston in the year 1775. What? He has a time machine aka huge red duffle bag that transports back to Colonial America so he can see his girlfriend. Deborah Revere (Leighton Meester) is Paul’s daughter and she is more revolutionary than he father.
Dan has been traveling back to a time before the Revolutionary War, and it is about to get started. Only problem is Deborah’s father was out of town and didn’t warn them, “The British are coming.” Thus, our history has been changed.
He does the only thing he can do, he goes to Chris (Yassir Lester) the college’s History Professor and brings him back to the 1775 with him. Well, after a lot of convincing because who would believe him?
Once they get there, they start the War and Chris asks to stay while Deborah chooses to go with Dan to the future aka our time. When they find out something shocking about Chris, they go back to make things right.
Will they make everything right again? Of course they do, because otherwise they would be trapped going back to that time over and over until they do. And it is fun to see them go back to Chicago and hang out with Al Capone in the coming weeks.
Pally plays Dan as such a likeable Frat boy, you can’t help but to adore him. Meester gives Deborah such a naive charm, you will forget she ever did that show. Thus, you will XOXO her! Lester is perfect as their smart uptight friend who keeps them in line because if he doesn’t our time line goes to poop.
Making History is about making you happy and who doesn’t need that before they start their work week?
