Hysterical!

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.
