Because the idea of a crazy scientist going on time-travelling adventures with a young sidekick was initially thought of as a blatant rip-off of Back to the Future—as the original concept episode shows.
Yet the idea for ripping Back to the Future goes back further still, to co-creator Justin Roiland’s House of Cosbys web series. Which itself was shut down by a cease-and-desist letter from Bill Cosby’s lawyer.
