  • Voyagers! was a time travel-based television series broadcast in the 1982-1983 season on NBC, starting on October 3, 1982. Phineas Bogg (played by Jon-Erik Hexum) was one of a society of time travelers called Voyagers who, with the help of a young boy named Jeffrey Jones (played by Meeno Peluce) used a hand-held device called an Omni (which looked much like a large pocket watch) to travel in time and ensured that history unfolded as we know it. For instance, in the first episode Jeffrey ensured that baby Moses' basket traveled down the Nile where it was met by Pharaoh's daughter. Bogg and Jeffrey first met when Bogg's Omni malfunctioned and took him to 1982 (the circuitry of Bogg's Omni was set to allow him only as late as 1970), landing him in the apartment of Jeffrey's aunt and uncle, who were caring for him after his parents' death. Jeffrey accidentally fell out of a window, causing Bogg to jump out to rescue him by activating the Omni. Bogg's Guidebook - which contained a detailed description of how history should unfold - had been grabbed by Jeffrey's dog Ralph, and so Bogg had to rely on Jeffrey (whose father was a history professor) to help him. There are several running gags in the show, like Phineas' lacking knowledge of important historical events, which emphasizes his dependence on Jeffrey; his fear of dogs; and his poker playing habits, where he relies on the rules of an old Hungarian card game called Schnibbitz, yet he usually wins doing so. Phineas is also a great womanizer and manages to fall for a beautiful woman in almost every single time period he is in. Many historical figures appeared in this series, among them Babe Ruth, Cleopatra, Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, and Harriet Tubman. Over the closing credits of each episode, actor Meeno Peluce would say, "If you want to learn more about {whatever historical person or event appeared in the show}, take a voyage down to your public library. It's all in books!" In 1984, one year after the show ended, Jon-Erik Hexum suffered an accidental fatal gunshot wound to the head on the set of his next show Cover Up with Jennifer O'Neill. (en)

Quando a luz vermelha do Omni acende, quer dizer que a história está errada. Nosso trabalho é colocar as coisas de volta no eixo. Luz verde - nós conseguimos, garoto!"
