it's still ahead of it's time. Literally nothing has surpassed it since. The 90's did that. Nothing beats the beginning of the internet that was the 90's. First impressions cannot be beat.
I did as much as the scene in response to it when Freakazoid picked up the secretary and how she was flailing her arms and legs around like that. I mostly have seen cartoon characters from 90s do that
Well. That was the problem with the show. There are so many references to movies and shows you will see when you are 18 or older. Even the "Pull the string!" reference from the first episode was one of the many jokes children would not understand. (Or your parents love horrible movies like Glen or Glenda and you were forced to watch them all day)
Y'know, "Freakazoid" was originally going to be a serious super hero show before Steven Spielberg decided it should be more comical. We came very close to not having this wonderfully funny and charming cartoon, and that makes me love this show even more.
So glad they altered the premise, this style of humor was overdue. And given when this was made, it's now overdue to be made as a serious big movie feature! 😯😁
For an idea of the character the freak or something episode of 90s Batman is pretty close to that hero. The creative team had a bunch of the characters drawn out and the switch to comedy had a new set of people working on it and took those characters and used them for freakaziod that we knows rogues gallery
@@ShamrockParticle I think they can split the difference on comedy and serious. I think with the right people it could be something akin to the mystery inc. or DuckTales(2017)

I see this comment a lot and I think quietly that there was subtle nuance to the blind-side stupid in these cartoons where there's a setup and delivery where the internet really is just delivery, delivery which is way less substantial to me. I'm really old I now realize, shit.
You can def see the Monty Python influence on the nonsensical humor. Love it. Shame most people were too young to appreciate the genius of this show back in the day. Freakazoid, we underestimated you.
Chevez Saulsberry heres are some real cartoons that are really famous that everyone wouldn’t shut up and wouldnt forget about it -the spectacular spider man -batman 2007 -steven universe -regular show -paw patrol -loud house -scooby doo and guess who! -sonic x -teen titans go -rise of the tmnt -gravity falls -ducktales And finally mickey mouse shorts
And why is it always a running joke for freakazoid to nearly crash the plane into various things such as another airplane, a blimp and a giant Marlon brando balloon
K Geezy And I'm sure the two of them would start out fighting and somehow end up doing something crazy somewhere else, like sitting on a fence on the moon singing about cheese with their arms around each other... or something.
K Geezy Well Freakazoid has Super Strength, Super Speed, can turn into lightning, and has all of the information on the Internet downloaded onto his head (but it was 90's internet). Deadpool has a healing factor that'll make Wolverine blush and is a master assassin. Honestly, I'd give the edge to Freak.
Pandyx Freakazoid can more at lightning fast speeds (basically making him faster than anyone in the Marvel Universe who isn't the Silver Surfer or above), has vaguely defined super strength, and has enhanced durability. If the fight isn't "to the death", Immortality doesn't mean you always win.
@@music79075 The voice actor improvised a lot of his lines, using slangs, pop culture references and changing most of the original script to make it wackier than the original version
Oh dear sweet lord this is absolutely hysterical, even now some twenty odd years later!! I haven't laughed this hard in awhile! Man I loved this show so much when it was the air! Man this is one the biggest cartoons I really wish they'd kept going longer.
Is it sad or funny that this cartoon from the 90's is an accurate portrayal of our current modern times? It's like social commentary from the past predicting the present.
this show is what gave me my love of a bit overstaying its welcome, like when Freakazoid spits out orange drink for almost 20 seconds, but hearing the orchestra overloading to insane levels at 4:59 like a nuclear reactor nearly broke my brain when I first saw it~
The Nostalgia Critic brought me here. :3 I forgot just how funny this show was...now that I'm 20 years older and can understand the jokes.............. *LIPSYNC!*
Bro I looked up "Freakazoid" and some TH-camr popped up, So I was like, "No the blue skinned, red tights wearing weirdo who I only relate to, Like c'mon guys you had one job"
You don't honestly think I was being serious, do you? Deadpool, the 50 year old comic book character younger than the cartoon character from what was likely 5 minutes ago?
This show was ahead of its time.
they definitely pioneered the style of jokes you see in Family Guy
AstoundingChaotix ikr
Its ahead of OUR time
your damn right, whats happened to the cartoons these days?

Imagine being in a house for 24 hours with The Mask, Freakazoid, and DeadPool lol
It will be the best thing for anyone that not stumble in that room.
Lol
I'd need a ton of headache medication.
one hell of a threesome.... they'd break all the walls... Including trump's
Which creeper?
Freakazoid is like a kid friendly version of Deadpool.
Well. That was the problem with the show. There are so many references to movies and shows you will see when you are 18 or older. Even the "Pull the string!" reference from the first episode was one of the many jokes children would not understand.
(Or your parents love horrible movies like Glen or Glenda and you were forced to watch them all day)
I must confess, I was kind of disappointed that Deadpool wasn't as much like Freakazoid as I had been lead to believe.
Best description of Freakazoid yet. He's made me laugh more than Deadpool.
Probably because Freakazoid was always meant to be kid friendly and Deadpool isn't.
You know, I was just thinking that. Except Freakazoid is a legit superhero, and Deadpool is an anti-hero.
WB fucking KILLED IT in the 90's.
Cameron Moore Steven Spielberg had his hand in a good many of the greatest :)

So Freakazoid was just going to be another Batman or Superman or something? Either way I'm glad that he is how is too
So glad they altered the premise, this style of humor was overdue. And given when this was made, it's now overdue to be made as a serious big movie feature! 😯😁

This show is part of where my sense of humor comes from.

It comes from most 90s cartoons in general for me, especially the WB cartoons like Freakazoid 😂

😂😂
never understood this legendary show in my childhood mostly because english wasn't my first language, but this needs a re-run!
I still have no idea why Marlon Brando is in the sky... And do I care?
As an addendum, I have just learned of Marlon Brando's blimp-sized ego, and the joke is ultimately more hilarious.
And at that stage of his life, he was rather...large.
And why is it always a running joke for freakazoid to nearly crash the plane into various things such as another airplane, a blimp and a giant Marlon brando balloon
two decades later, I get the reference and the joke still manages to be funny without making any gd sense at all, what a masterfully stupid cartoon.
Knowing Brando, I'd say we would be more surprised if he wasn't in the sky.
One of the greatest shows of the 90's
Him picking up that woman and setting her on that table gets me every time.
"A BOWL! I GOT A BOWL, GOOD FOR ME!"
Best superhero ever.
the bowl part was so hilariously random
I'm 21 and I still laugh at Freakazoid. He's timeless.
I’m only 22, and I recently started watching the show. The first episode left me for dead
Marvel, THIS is how you make a character with Internet powers!
"Okay, hit the red button-NO NOT THAT RED BUTTON!" hahaha that was so classic!
He is basically the internet if it were a person.
He's a living meme
That was exactly the premise
He is basically 2021 Humor if it were a person.

Freakazoid is one underrated cartoon I can think of that not many people remember or talk about all that much
Freakazoid was a show that wouldn't feel out of place on Adult Swim, considering most comedy shows there use the same type of gags.
That dialogue he and the Lobe have as they're falling kills me every time.
