Time Trackers

About

Three teenagers – one from the future, one from the present day, and a cave girl from the prehistoric past – are on a time-travelling mission to combat viruses aimed at destroying the greatest inventions of the world. In 2086, a malicious hacker of the future starts to send time-viruses which, when inserted into the fabric of time, change history and create mayhem.    

They delete moments of really important discoveries, like the splitting of the atom, time measurement and, um, shoelaces. The three teenagers’ mission is to make sure the important inventions that these time-viruses have just deleted are re-invented within 24 hours – before history is changed forever.  

It’s not going to be easy. Especially when their crew consists of a smart-mouthed robotic dog and two easy-to-hotwire android adults.  

But if it was easy, it wouldn’t be so fun!  

Time Trackers is an action-packed ride through time via the greatest inventions in history.  

Time Trackers – set in the future, the present, and various iconic moments of the past – is the perfect vehicle for the tech-savvy kids of today (and tomorrow).  

The show is a co-production between Taylor Media Pty. Ltd. (Australia) and the Gibson Group (NZ).
