Freakazoid!

Every episode is packed to the gills with hilarity! Not only are the Freakazoid bits brilliant but so are the rest: Toby Danger, Lawn Gnomes, Huntsmen, Lord Bravery (think the Monty Python of Heroes), and everything else rules. Also the voice actors are great, like Ed Asner as Cosgrove and Jonothan Harris (AKA Dr. Smith from Lost in Space). One of the best cartoons but was aimed for the wrong audience. Great songs, likable hilarious characters (like Lobe: the villain with a low self-esteem and Cosgrove whose easily distracted by various things), wonderfully brilliant yet strange stories, jokes galore, homages and spoofs, great use of Stock footage for comedy. BRING IT BACK!

Freakazoid! is not as well known as Tiny Toons or Animaniacs, but was at least their equal in laughs and creativity. It was a great show with hilarious characters, a mix of sly, self-referential humor and utter absurdity. The quality of the animation varied wildly from episode to episode, possibly the latter shows were created more cheaply to stretch the budget when they found out they were not being renewed. Whereas the animation did fluctuate, the writing was never less than inspired. Highlights include the Johnny Quest parody, the running "poo gas" joke, and any episode with the Lobe. My favorite is a short piece featuring Freakazoid's new sidekick, a sock puppet. This episode is laugh out loud funny with innuendo I'm amazed got past the censor. Try and catch any episodes if Cartoon Network again reruns them, or if, miraculously, a DVD is released. They are well worth it.

Why wasn't this on longer? All I have now are the insanely late showings on the Cartoon Network at 5 in the morning. I love this show. As someone who was late into my teens when this debuted, I could appreciate the obscure pop culture humor that makes this cartoon well above the average Saturday morning fare. This is not a show for kids, this is a cartoon for grownups who actually KNOW what Lost in Space was and get the vast numbers of jokes that go over the heads of most of our younger counterparts.

Oh, I miss this show. The script was so good, terribly well-written and ever so funny. Between this and them taking MST3K away, I really can't think of anything to live for anymore... *sigh*. At least they still rerun them.

Freakazoid! was a show I held (and still do hold) near and dear to my heart. Sure, some of my comrades tell me it's immature. Sure, they say 'it's on Kids WB, you fool.' But I love it, as well as all the other adults who are still naughty little children deep down.

This show will make you laugh so hard you'll most likely turn yourself inside out.

Why in the world did this show get bad reviews? The jokes on actors and movies are hilarious! For example, when Freakazoid gives the truck driver a ticket, it wasn't a fine, it was a ticket to Jerry Springer! This show is absolutely hilarious, and it contains the wackiness from Animaniacs and makes it even funnier. It should've lasted as long as the Animaniacs as well, considering how funny it is! If you're looking for a show that will make you laugh REALLY hard, look no further than Freakazoid!
