Freak Out!!
I've told you a million times that I love Steven Spielberg cartoons. He is a genius when it comes to that! Of course, Bruce Timm and Paul Dini do a lot to craft those masterpieces. So let me tell you about another work of genius he had created. That show is a superhero comedy called Freakazoid. Let me give you the explanation for how it was made. Bruce Timm had created a bunch of drawings about a strange, near insane superhero and a cast of people. he man planed on making this a dark superhero show, but Steven wanted another comedy. So, Bruce left the show and the workers made his drawings into a comedy show. Thus the next show after Pinky And The Brain was created. Now that that is over with, let me tell you more about the premise. It stars a teenager Dexter Douglas, a geek and computer nerd. Dexter gains incredible superpowers after a computer bug, but loss his sanity. He became Freakazoid, superhero of Washington, D.C. This show not only has a great premise and fantastic hero, but also has humorous villains. There's the smart Cave Guy, the sinister Lobe, the scaly Cobra Queen, and the super scary Candle Jack. That's not all of them I assure you, but those are my favorites. Finally, this show uses the great voice acting of Paul Rugg, a true genius. If you don't know who he is, he plays the Jerry Lewis parody on Animaniacs. The guy has been nominated for Emmys and has received three, so why shouldn't he be great? Plus, he can showcase the unbearable insanity that haunts Freakazoid's mind. So, I proudly give Freakazoid a 5 out of 5, for being a great Animaniacs followup.
