Good story, Not enough for a whole film
Scarlet
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Billy Ollie
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Dan Chambers (Adam Pally) is a slacker janitor at a New England college. He discovers a time machine in a sack among his late father's possessions and uses it to travel to pre-revolutionary Lexington. He likes to spend his time drinking with John Hancock (John Gemberling) and Sam Adams (Neil Casey). He's also dating Deborah Revere (Leighton Meester), the eldest daughter of Paul Revere. All of the changes have derailed the American Revolution. In order to fix the past, he brings along history professor Chris Parrish (Yassir Lester).It's a great silly start. Adam Pally is at his best idiocy. At first, I wasn't sure where this show was going to go. Apparently, the writers aren't that sure either because the thing starts to ramble around. It fits the Chambers character with his aimlessness. I almost wish that they roll the dice and try to assassinate baby Hitler. I don't understand going back to gangland Chicago. This is a free-for-all. There is some fun with loads of lunacy but it is held back by its instability.

I think this is one of those shows that is going to take its first season to really get into - but in my mind, this makes it little different from the first season of Star Trek: Next Generation; the acting in those early episodes is so wooden, the show would have died without the ST label, according to other reviews here.As it is, things take a turn for the somewhat heavy at the end of the fourth episode.It seems to have definite potential, after a questionable pilot, and a rather weak follow-up. I'm giving it a 6 as a preliminary score, but I hope I can say I want to raise that up by the end of the season.

Gave it a try as I thought it might have potential. Trite poorly executed script with wooden acting, especially by Adam Pally.Even Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure did time travel more effectively and of course the Back to the Future trilogy makes this attempt look like it was performed on a Junior High School stage level.Sorry, even for a made for TV series this is purely pathetic.

The time-travel genre is blossoming these days with several series in 2016 and 2017. Sadly none of the shows are particularly strong, and Making History is just one more that struggles.Time travel is just the entry into a situation comedy built around three people. The usual poor treatment of time travel paradoxes is clear in the first episode, but as this is not really a sci-fi show I propose we just let that pass.Rather, this is a comedy, in which the situations for our characters are built around how two of them are awkwardly out of their time when they travel backwards (and for the third person, Paul Revere's daughter, when she travels forward.) Most of the humor I found flat, hardly worth a giggle.I suspect this will be a short lived series.
