a boring show on history.

 How can you have Indiana Jones without Harrison Ford, And Steven Spielberg, or John Williams

I don't want to start a discussion how I dislike the "young version of our hero" trick used by popular franchises (as much as improbable Superman sounds... then you get young Superman with a doggie?).

What was the problem was the very idea behind YIJ inception: for the show to be educational Indy must meet every single historical figure from that era. Too much of a stretch. It's just as ridiculous as Star Wars Expanded Universe: everyone meets everyone and everyone is famous (compare backgrounds of Mois Eisley cantina patrons!).
