So a friend convinced me to watch the first episode, and, to tell the truth, I really wasn't expecting much. But I watched it because he kept insisting. But then...oh my word...I am in love with Horrible Histories. It's entertaining, funny, you learn things, and is ,far and away, one of the most well-written and well-produced children's shows I have ever seen. It isn't condescending towards kids and it doesn't talk down to them the way some children's shows do. This is the reason why I think adults love it so much also. Definitely one of the best shows, kids or adult, I have ever seen
