Because it's great!! I feel that I didn't give this show a chance when I commented on it one year ago today, so I decided to watch more of it, and it sucked me in. It's a really funny show that can't be missed. I love Tudrussel. He's such an idiot. The time traveling can teach you a thing or two in each episode as well.Forget what I said before, this show rules.

My wife first saw this and had me watch it. It's pretty cute, actually. Historically near-accurate, it provides a humorous look at those great figures in our world history. The Wright Brothers as a pair of incompetent stunt artists. Beethoven as a professional wrestler. The occasional reference can be heard to Mark Hammill's more famous role--"Help him Tudrussell, you're our only hope"--comes to immediate mind. Pay attention to the puns and the idiotic behaviors. And don't forget, it's only a cartoon!

To tell you the truth, I only watch Cartoon Network for Looney Tunes, the adult-oriented anime (i.e., "Cowboy Bebop" and "Yuyu Harshuko"), and the cartoons on Adult Swim. The "Cartoon-Cartoons" that permeate CN's airwaves are either horribly overrated (i.e., Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Lab) or a complete waste of writers and animators (i.e., Courage the Cowardly Dog, Sheep in the Big City, Grim and Evil, etc).However, there are only five "Cartoon-Cartoons" that I'll watch: Johnny Bravo (the episodes before Pops and Carl), Cow and Chicken, Ed Edd and Eddy, Samurai Jack, and Time Squad (which I had to learn to like over time).IMO, Time Squad is just like "Toonsylvania" and "Ren and Stimpy" because all three of them tap into the warped humor of theatrical cartoons (and TV cartoons before the 1990's) and all of them (save R&S) are underrated shows that people either hate with a passion or have never heard of.
My verdict for Time Squad is simply this: I love it, even more than Looney Tunes! It's very rare to find cartoons that are halfway decent these days, and this (along with the other four "Cartoon Cartoons") is one of those cartoons you have to catch (in full) before it becomes a vague memory.

this little known series is a gem worthy of being discovered by good clean family comedy loving people everywhere . a lesson can be learned each week also , if you aren't too particular about details that is . the humor is broad enough to appeal to adults as well as goofy enough to appeal to kids . the main characters meet up with a different famous historical figure each episode and try to put them back on the path which will later lead them to their individual claim to fame . this often leads to hilarious results . you'll never look at LINCOLN , NAPOLEAN , EINSTEIN , or even GENGIS KHAN the same way again . bravo , to the cartoon network , for airing this little jewel . if only more people would discover it then maybe this cartoon would enjoy a long life on the cable network .
