While on a time-travel vacation, teenager Phil Diffy and his family from the year 2121 become stranded in the fictional town of Pickford, California, in the present day when their rented time machine malfunctions. Phil's father Lloyd, an engineer, works to repair the machine while the family attempts to blend in as an ordinary suburban household. Phil and his younger sister Pim enroll at H.G. Wells Junior/Senior High School, where Phil befriends and later falls for his neighbor Keely Teslow, the only person outside the family to learn their secret. The family also harbors Curtis, a Cro-Magnon caveman who stowed away in the time machine during a visit to the Stone Age. Much of the show's humor derives from the family's reliance on futuristic gadgets—such as the "Wizard" (a multipurpose handheld device), the "Skyak" (a flying vehicle), and spray-can food—which frequently cause complications in their efforts to remain inconspicuous.

"Your Cheatin' Heart"

Phil discovers that Keely's crush, Tanner, is cheating on her. He uses a futuristic gadget to expose the deception, though Keely initially believes Phil is just trying to break them up. Meanwhile, Pim schemes to break up Debbie and Bradley.

"Unification Day"

Phil must choose between celebrating his family's futuristic holiday, Unification Day, and attending an 11th-grade party. Debbie helps Pim after her cooking assignment goes wrong.

"Pheremonally Yours"

Phil draws the unwanted affections of a Southern girl named Marla. Meanwhile, Pim joins the school orchestra and tries to sabotage Debbie's solo.

"Future Tutor"

In the series pilot, Phil and Pim enroll at their new school. Phil tutors Keely in algebra and learns to accept people outside her clique, while Pim runs against Debbie for chalk monitor. This episode aired as part of a three-episode event with "Future Jock" and "You Say Toe-Mato."

"Doggie Daycare"

Phil and Keely run a dog-sitting business to earn money for a concert, bonding with a dog named Max (voiced by Rodney Dangerfield, in one of his final performances). Pim feigns an injury to make Debbie wait on her.

"We'll Fix It in Editing"

A school video project causes Phil to overlook his friends' feelings. Pim competes as a fast walker in a track meet.

"Milkin' It"

Lloyd fears Phil's science project will expose the family's secret and decides they must move. Phil and Keely go undercover at the science fair to prevent this. Pim misuses her gadgets for a school writing assignment.
