    I had no idea they made a new season in 2015. Should of really ended back in 2013 and trying to make it go on even more will just loose its charm. As they say all good stories must come to an end. However the original series will always be the best show to come out from cbbc hands down.

    Another great vid, and I look forward to next month's un-intentionally scary kid's show video (that is, if you're still keeping the tradition alive). Never saw any of the books when I was a kid in America, but had I ever got one, you bet I would have devoured it (metaphorically, of course). The live-action series was probably one of the greatest things since boil-in-the-bag ham, and I really wish that the BBC could have sold the series to PBS, but alas RUclips works just as well. Recently I saw the HH cast's foray into sitcoms with Ghosts, and it was an absolute joy. My favorite cast member is by and large Simon Farnaby (or, in Star Wars universe, Farns Monsbee), and I can't wait to see what other projects he has lined up. Cheers!

    I think Horrible Histories is one of the shows I loved from the first episode and kept me watching CBBC, BBC and TV in general for a long time before streaming camw along.
    Oh I just remembered when I first watcjed it with my brothers, I didn't knkw what to expect and thought it would jusr be bad. The theme tune and montage was a shining light and where I really thought it could be good.
    It definitely started at the right time and the sound a like and satirical songs are some of the best comedy I've seen.

      You see, the people of the Horrible Histories fandom have so many other figures as well, Like death, Shouty man, and Simon Cowell, except not the last one, that they all want as their president too!
      So, what do they do? They elect them all! Yes in 2025 it’s announced that all the main figures in Horrible Histories will become the president of some part of the world, or at the very least, involved in some part of the government!

      @@goodnight-moon564 yes indeed! In the year 2026 the queen of England finally dies, and who replaces her? Well it's none other than death himself! Yes the horrible histories fandom grew so big that the cast actually infiltrated the government and made it illegal to not watch horrible histories. And that was the end of that. Or so we thought! In the year 2029 some people got fed up of just watching horrible histories on loop for 12 hours a day and started a revolt!

      That succeeded this much…
      *shows succession rates are at 0 and breaks the whole thing*
      Not at all.
      But, the government and Death decide that to stop anymore revolts from happening, they make a deal.
      In all History classes, professors must put on Horrible Histories at least once per lesson.
      So there you have it, peace at last. History teachers just have to put Horrible Histories on during classes, and people can watch what they want, right?

I love all their jokes. But I’ve got to say, I think ghosts is better. I love how the 6 idiots’ shows have grown up with their audience without being too adult (well the shows they did together didn’t anyway).

    You're right not to watch the movie! It's a travesty, so embarrassingly bad it made me cringe, in between shouting "Heresy!!" at the screen & wanting to stab my eyes out. It's so depressing that people will watch it, or the rebooted series, & think that's what Horrible Histories is!

      Because it wasn't funny

      @@HeadphonesUK My only problem is that Horrible Histories is becoming "woke", they had a black person play Benjamin Franklin, who despite not owning slaves, existed during a time of slavery. There has also been more of a focus on women, especially with the songs in Series 9. This is a kids' history program, NOT something to throw wokeness into

      ​@@mattthesilent777REDIt's thrown into everything nowadays. Even _science_ is woke. No such things as facts if they get in the way of someone's feelings.

    The show is terrible now. There's too much gross out humour, horrible parodies and cringiness. They even did a Dan TDM parody...

      Series 6 was 7/10 series and I really enjoyed it. I just liked the new skits like History's Craziest Fools or Chatty Death and more. The actors are good and it is a different take on the series. After Series 6 it went horrible and over time the cast changed again and the new actors are terrible (no offence). Flossing and RUclipsr, Love Island, First Dates, Frozen and Adele parodies and many more *boomer humor* and out of touch jokes. Also I though the first series is good in its own way but is now a bit outdated.
