Plot Synopsis

Comedians make clever comments, share playful puns and tell silly stories, as I LOVE THE 1880S takes a nostalgic -- and comedic -- look back at history's most iconic people and relates that historical information to today's headlines, illustrating that history truly does repeat itself. History Channel guarantees this program will "be funnier (and more informative) than all 156 episodes of THE WEST WING combined." Each 30-minute episode features multiple topics, such as: why American has always had the most awesome healthcare system in the world; the strange way Nixon wooed his future wife; a founding father that liked swimming in the nude; a vice president got drunk at his inauguration; people who picnicked at a Civil War battle; the creation of the 'Star Spangled Banner'; and much more. Comedians include Matt Koff, Christian Finnegan, and a whole bunch more.
