BBC's Horrible Histories
Horrible Histories is a British children's television series based on the Terry Deary book series of the same name. It aims to provide entertainment while also informing its audience about history, thereby making a stereotypically boring topic fun. The series has become very successful, and many of its musical numbers have become viral hits.
The show has spawned a gameshow spinoff, Gory Games, and a re-edit of the show, designed for an older audience and hosted by Stephen Fry was also released. Horrible Histories was featured at the 2011 Proms, and an award-winning spin-off game called Terrible Treasures has also been released.
Each episode features a mixture of sketches and cartoons from different historic and prehistoric eras, and commentaries from Rattus Rattus, the puppet rat host. Some sketches are pastiches of various forms of media. The series also includes quizzes and songs.
The first series was broadcast in 2009, the second series was broadcast in 2010, the third series was broadcast in 2011, the fourth series was broadcast in 2012, and the fifth and final series has finished being aired on CBBC in 2013. Some specials have also aired, including a Christmas special and a sports special.
From Wikipedia's article on Horrible Histories
Don't let the fact this series is for kids put you off: my father is in his 50s and loves this show. You can check out some of the songs on YouTube, it's a fantastic show. :3

I learned more from watching this show than I did throughout my entire school career.

Re: BBC's Horrible Histories
I love this show!!! It's so educational, but fun at the same time. I feel like such a big kid watching it. I watched the one where they all start singing before the credits. I never laughed so much in my life. I loved it!!! I like Stupid Deaths!
Re: BBC's Horrible Histories
I KNOW THIS!
I've seen it on TV a few times, but it's not shown anymore. ;_;
I miss it! D8

Re: BBC's Horrible Histories
Ahaha, Stupid Deaths is my favourite XD
Me and Addy have been listening to the Owain Glyndwr song over and over, they set it to the tune of "Delilah" by Tom Jones, which I thought was genius.
The Roman and Tudor sketches are my favourites.

It never aired in America, because this country is determined to keep Spongebob on for as many millenia as possible.
In my history class, they were talking about King James and Jamestown and I was like, "pfft I already know this stuff" thanks to Horrible Histories, woot!

Re: BBC's Horrible Histories
I was lucky to get them for about £4 each. Except the 5th series, that was a bit pricier because that was brand new, but eh. The boxset would've been cheaper, if I'd had any patience XD
