This is a Canadian show that aired on MTV for a while. It was about this high school for teenage clones of great historical figures, including Abe Lincoln, Joan of Arc, Gandhi, Cleopatra, JFK, et al. Abe's best friends were Joan and Gandhi. Joan had a major crush on Abe, but he never noticed because he wants to be with Cleo. Cleo is torn between Abe and JFK, and JFK is torn between Cleo and pretty much every other girl in school.

Meanwhile, the whole thing is a secret government project ultimately run by a shadowy military group or whatever, but we don't see much of them. The school is actually run by Principal Scudworth, who's just a mad scientist with plans of his own. He has a robotic butler named Mr. Butlertron. What else to say? Gandhi is a party animal, but not really popular. Anyway, the whole show is really hysterical and weird and stuff. More episodes aired in Canada than ever did on MTV, I guess. I wish I could see them all, but whatever. It was fun while it lasted....

There was a revival in 2023 on Max, which I don't get.
