    Enjoyable pilot. reminds me a bit of Hot Tub Time machine but only 2 characters. One screws up the world, then realizes he screwed it up and needs help to fix it. Yea the characters could use fleshing out more, but hey there's only been 2 episodes so hopefully we learn more about each character. as well that helps them fit into this TV series.

    'Making History' starts small but it is filled with funny jokes that suits perfectly well in the already tired theme of time travel. Adam Pally and Yassir Lester are surprisingly full of energy in their roles, making this pilot very enjoyable.

    Only 2 episodes in and this show is already a hoot. The dynamic between the 2 main leads could be worked on a little more. (They could be a smidge more likable.) But the cast, both main and supporting, is funny and lively.

    With a lot of shows recently taking time travel too seriously, it's nice to see a show just have fun.

    This one doesn’t bother teaching any great lessons. It looks for the laughs, makes its points and gets out.

    Making History may get a D in real history but is passably funny in a hit-or-miss cartoonish way.

    It’s a messy, feather-light romp that establishes early on that, among other things, the past smelled pretty bad.
