It's About Time was a farcical 60's sitcom from the same folks that produced the successful Gilligan's Island. It was even shot on the same set as Gilligan's and also had a large cast of over-the-top characters. In the space-crazy days of the 60's two astronauts manage to break the light-barrier and go back to prehistoric time encountering a group of "cave-people" who sound like refugees from a 50's cowboys & Indians film. It did have funny performances from Imogene Coca, Joe E. Ross, Cliff Norton and Mike Mazurki. In the last 6 or 7 episodes the astronauts manage to repair their craft and return to the 20th century only to discover the "cave" family of Coca and Ross and their two kids were stowaways so the "fish-out-of-water" theme is flipped from the 'astronauts meet the Flintstones' to cave-people in 20th century.
