Can't believe there's no thread on this. This will be the first time the show has re-aired in the U.S. since it went off in 1967, 48 years ago. Like all Sherwood Schwartz shows, its terrible but with a great theme song. But there's plenty of people who like Gilligan's Island and The Brady Bunch and those are terrible also.

Who's gonna show it?

Vahan · 09-02-2015, 12:34 AM

Antenna TV.

Silly people liking such terrible shows like Gilligan's Island.

I'll somewhat agree about Gilligan's Island. It's not the greatest show, but I wouldn't say it's terrible. It's About Time is bad, and worse than Gilligan's Island. Someone at Antenna TV had the crazy idea to schedule two long unseen, bad sitcoms back to back on Saturdays, My Mother The Car and It's About Time. Perhaps it's a ratings experiment.

The Brady Bunch, on the other hand, is a decent show. Certainly not terrible. It can be corny at times, and has that now outdated 70's vibe, but it's still fun to watch. In my opinion, it's much better than The Partridge Family.

Good news- I always want them to show more obscure shows instead of the same old stuff.

Bad news- I never heard of this one

Worse news- It will be on right in the middle of college football, so I'll never see it.

It's about two astronauts who during a suborbital flight somehow break through a time barrier and land their spaceship on a prehistoric earth. They end up living with a cave family while trying to repair their ship. Halfway through the season with the ratings low the astronauts repair their ship and return home only to find out that the cave family stowed away on their spaceship. So now the cave family is living with them in the modern world. At the end of the season the showwas cancelled.

I vaguely remember this show, but not until I read on SO that it was coming back! It jogged my memory. I remember the theme song. Not the words , but the tune!

It's about time, It's about space!!!!!

Than another verse said It's about an astronaut !! That's about all I know, but I can hum the tune like I just saw it yesterday!!!

What I'm wondering were there any hot guys in this show?

"It's about two astronauts and how they educate, a prehistoric woman and her prehistoric mate!" The cave people were played by Imogene Coca (Your Show of Shows) and Joe E. Ross (Car 54 Where Are You). One of the astronauts was played by Frank Aletter but I don't remember the name of the actor who played the other astronaut.

I remember watching the show when I was a little kid. We only watched it if there wasn't anything else on TV that my dad liked. So I only saw a few episodes but I remember Imogene Coca as being funny on it.
