    Freakazoid! was a greatly under appreciated show that was cut down do to low ratings and new FCC rules. This show was ahead of what age group it tried to reach out to because of it's strong use of adult contented humor which kids don't get and it's many shots at everything in the world. Heck! It made fun of the pope. Freakazoid! was as off the wall as Animaniacs if not more off the wall. The show had a great use of comedy among culture and even made fun of itself. The characters really made this show a classic as well as great reason to watch because even the villains were hilariously funny along with the heroes and special guests. It's a real shame it only lasted two years and should be brought back where it can hopefully be appreciated more.

    It was funny, insightful, versatile, with tons of parodies, but unfortunately also one of those short lived shows in the 90s.I relay liked it, even when I rewatched it. Yeah, there were none funny moments and jokes, but most of it worked out swell. Best thing was you never knew how it's going to end, because the show was chaotic, and some stupid endings were resolved with "Cut! Oh forget it, lets do something else." In a way the writers and studio represented themselves in this, and got away with it easy.It was sad when they canceled it after the second season, but it could have been worse. If they were to drag it for too long (or worse, remake it now), they would have came up against the Internets public new growing image of adult entertainment. Now there is so much horror in the Internet that I don't even want to know what kind of Freakazoid it could make. Still, one more season would not have ruined the show.All in all, a great short lived comedy show, worth watching anyway.

    Oh how I miss this show terribly. Freakazoid! was the absolute best show on the Cartoon Network around that time. The brand of comedy found in the series was probably the first of it's kind which only makes it hard to ever forget. Each episode was packed with sarcastic humor and hilarious parodies of celebrities and various pop culture as well as physical humor, making it enjoyable for older folks as well as younger ones. Every character is hilarious, from the leads to the announcer. To top it all, the voice acting wasn't bad either. Paul Rugg played a spectacular Freakazoid. I honesty believe Cartoon Network was crazy to have let a show like this slip. The series was only twenty-six episodes long, hardly enough if you ask me. It's shows like this that make me appreciate shows like Family Guy or Futurama. My point is that if they can give crap shows like LAX a second chance, (even after bad ratings) why not a great one like Freakazoid!?

    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.
