This show set the television prototype for later programs such as The Time Tunnel and the early William Hartnell, Dr. Who series. Every week Captain Z-Ro and his assistant Jet would observe world events and travel through time to help historical figures.
The entire series of Captain Z-Ro fell into the public domain in 1978 due to lack of copyright renewal. Check our listings for other episodes.

Cpt Zro, you got that right.
What a treat! A fun story and no CGI – thank you for posting!
I think the robot has a left hip problem…. 🙂
More cheese than Dairylea but I can see the clever mix of history education and sci-fi adventure has it appeal and is very watchable tv.
I've been binging Star Trek, and I have to say, this old show honestly DOES hold its own.
now I know where Firesign Theatre got their inspiration……..
KHJ TV in the late 60's took this show clips to have an afternoon Los Angeles kids show and shown Clutch Cargo and other cartoons of that time. The Great Zolar show LINK:https://youtu.be/W3GcOkXowos
A nice show that should have been done in color and the kaleidoscopic part would definitely have popped as well the whole show which holds up and was obviously real Cool and exciting in the mid 50's etc. Love the Futuristic Models sets! And the viewing screen almost having todays viewing aspect ratio! and transporter time machine booth and seeing how they had to have the viewing screen show the real footage of what they were looking at shows they had to do some innovative work back then to make it work. So that's why its a shame it wasn't color. So Don't forget this was generally geared for youth and or family viewing!
roger cant think eh? hem. this made me smile. i also admire any actor who drives a suit like roger the robot , or even chewbaca.:)
He even has a sonic screwdriver… in the form of a space gun!
Best robot acting ever.
THIS is great – such fun to watch! THANK YOU for uploading!
That robot sounds like a glorified vacuum cleaner. They should shoot a movie sequel to this starring Robert Downey, Jr.
I really hope there's more episodes of Captain zero, I have never seen this until now
thanks for uploading the past, I've really enjoyed it…………..
Good thing the ancient Egyptians could speak English.
I find it funny how these old sci-fi movies play such a big role in our reality. Especially when you realize that we have a time machine in Area 51 which does this exact same thing of looking into the future so that they can plan on how to make it work for them. Such as finding out just who is going to win a certain election and which swing states could be altered to change that future into one that benefits their agenda. Like placing a certain Bush family member into that equation.
That robot violated the 1st Law of Robotics… A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. The robot 'harmed' the two priests when he ganked their heads together…..
Those ancient Egyptians had a great mastery of English language!!
I can tell…that's NOT a real robot.
I NEVER HEARD OF THIS SHOW., BUT CORNY AS IT IS ITS STILL BETTER THAN HALF OF THE CRAP ON TV TODAY THAT EVERYBODY THINKS IS GREAT. PEOPLE JUST SEEM TO LIKE MINDLESS GARBAGE AND LAUGH AT IT, AS IF IT WAS FUNNY. SAD.
Love the helmets lol and the gee-wizz kid.
Never knew about this show and I'm 67. Uniquely different from the other space shows of this era.
Never heard of this show🤖
How WONDERFUL !!!! This is the actual episode of that probably started my love of Science Fiction and Fantasy. I saw it 60 years ago and with the advent of the World wide Web I have looked in vain, till now to find this series but I was calling it Captain ZERO not Captain Z-RO.
# BJ's RECORDS & NOSTALGIAYou forgot about Mr. Peabody and his pet boy Sherman. They too travelled through time to see interesting facts of history.They seem to have Transporter Technology
it is the best really it is.
it better than the other ones.
this one really good.
Great show! Above average for the time and genre
i had no idea this was an actual tv series. i saw "captain z-ro" on a tv set in the quantum leap episode "mirror image" but i didn't know this was a real series.
I've seen many Z-ro episodes and this one takes top honors !!!!
Well, we FINALLY get to meet Tetro. Thanks!
There is one series that was much better than this one… Remember the "Way-Back" machine with Mr. Peabody and Sherman ?? Their series was much like this one.
classic 50's TV
