- There’s been a stealth, Batman: The Animated Series spinoff that’s been out in the world for over 25 years now. You probably didn’t know it was developed by Steven Spielburg and created by Bruce Time and Paul Dini. It’s Batman: The Animated Series (minus everything Batman) combined with the zaniness of the Earthworm Jim series. It was random, it was hilarious and it had a super groovy and jazzy opening theme song. That’s right, we’re talking about FREAKAZOID. But how is this a B:TAS spinoff? Find out all that and more as we dive into this Kids WB classic.

Freakazoid! - Everything You Didn’t Know | SYFY WIRE - Розваги
Kind of feel like Freakzoid was a gateway to Deadpool, almost a kid’s version. It does really hold up surprisingly well.
I feel the same as well.
Outrage is a webcomic on Weebtoons made by Deadpool cocreator Fabian Nicieza- It stats with a creepy stalker sending threatening texts to a woman when a glowing red man climbs out of his phone and beats the tar out of him. It is very much what if Freakazoid was made by the writer of Deadpool. o clue if it will get a 2nd season but a good comic
It was The Mask
Deadpool predates him by 4 years.
@@NewCanada obv talking bout film and tv, bud
Even if Freakazoid doesn't get a reboot, he should at least be a part of the Animaniacs reboot.
I wanna see him officially incorporated into the DC Universe like Static Shock was.
You should take a look at hulu
We’re getting an Animatics reboot. Where’s our Freakazoid reboot 😭
recently he was in teen titans go with the Lobe
@@RyanCunningham that true
This show needs to come back
I agree
The Scream-O-Vision and Relax-O-Vision had me dying through the whole episodes.
2 things can be done with this super show:
1.- Take the same show, fill it with 80's and 90's references and you have the recipe for nostalgia. And as we all know nostalgia is a good way to sell stuff (merchandise, books, comics, software, etc.) The bad news from my point of view is that the show still is focused on us born in the 80's or 90's.
2.- Take the same show and parody the internet life, the trolls, facebook, twitter, etc. as the show did in the beginning and Voila! you have a proper reboot of Freakazoid.
Amazing show growing up so much nostalgia
A classic 90s cartoon. Imagine a live-action TV series.
Imagine a live action spit take...
Wouldn't that be a terrible idea? You couldn't do nearly as much of the crazy stuff don't we all love about freakazoid. That's almost as bad as having the idea to animate Napoleon Dynamite.
@@SyFyWire spumoni is an Italian ice cream treat, with layers of ice cream and fruit and nuts. Or, if you have an old spaghetti factory in your area they have an Americanized
itd have to be ryan renolds. or jim carey
That would be werid
OK rude, I was a little kid when it came out and I definitely understood/loved it. Freakazoid! is the guest DLC character I want the most for the Injustice franchise.
Eeep.... Didn't Injustice Superman actually snap and kill Joker in that reality? I shudder to think what he would do in response to the sudden appearance of Freakazoid!
For real this show SHOULD BE ON THE SYFY CHANNEL !
It also should be twice as long and have some interviews with people !
its really great!
It’s amazing how 24 episodes made this show unforgettable.
All you need
Freakazoid(Dexter Douglas),Captain Planet,Gargoyles and Magic School Bus deserves The live action treatment!
Freakazoid and HISTERIA! need to come back!! 😭😭😭
I second that :-)
Agreed
Freakazoid was the love child of Joker and Batman. Can't change my mind
Freakazoid my 90s childhood cartoon And also it’s a Deadpool for kids
We can def see that 🤨
SYFY WIRE lol 😂 i know
The clip of Paul Rugg riffing literally has me in tears. I still love this show. I showed my kids 'Animaniacs', 'Tiny Toons', and 'Pinky & The Brain' and they loved them all so they're definitely going to love this.
I loved this show so much! ❤️
As much as I love Freakzaoid (And I FREAKING LOVE this show and was devastated when it got cancelled) I'm still very curious to see how Bruce Timm's version would've turned out
I really wish that Freakazoid would get a revival, hopefully, that will happen after the Animaniacs revival on Hulu
"FREAK OUT!"
I think the best gag in this show was when Freakazoid did his emergency broadcast system impression
This explains why me and my classmate friend were the only 2 kids in our elementary school who watched it. We got some of the references like galager. We loved it.
From the producing mind of Steven Spielberg!
Pure genius
Freakazoid was epic!
100% you need to do an episode on the angry beavers. I loved that show.
I wish Freakazoid was brought back either in another cartoon, comic or live action movie!
Freakazoid!
Needs a Comeback.
One of the greats
Shame it was cancelled :(
My childhood
The Creeper was a created by Steve Ditko. And there've been rumors he based Freakazoid off of Mike Alred's Madman (very plausable).
10:03 that spit take got me laughing so hard, not sure why. Love Freakazoid! Hope they bring him back.
I loved this show: it definitely needs an Adult Swim revival and a live action movie.
My fav show back in the day
This was actually one of my favorites. All the Spielberg cartoons were my gateway into pop culture references
Fantastic show! Fantastic vid!
Thanks SYFY Wire 😃
Man! You kill it with this EYDK series with me every time. Centurions, Swat-Kats This one. This was my childhood growing up. Keep it going my dude
One of my favorite shows of all time. I have the entire series recorded from broadcast on VHS. I watch them allthe time, run them at parties, even had audience participation Freakazoid parties. I cosplayed candlejack, too. Uh oh...I said it. Maybe he won't sh........
I was 15 and loved this show. But I was also watching SCTV and Kids in the Hall by age 10
the Lobe...
thank you. thank you. thank you for the memories! this was a greatest segment i have come across on UA-cam in a long while. like you, i miss Freakazoid. i also miss Animaniacs & Histeria!...
Awesome show still holds up
God I love this show
FREAKAZOID
I still check it out from time to time and even introduced it to my niece when she was like 10 or so and she loved it , she is now uses humorous sarcasm as a way to make others laugh . I love for it come back , we can try to ask for it to come back to WB :) Still waiting on that Animaniacs reboot.
Great show! I was also bummed when it ended. I would love new episodes!
"Oh memories!" It's awesome to learn more about our extraordinary and freaky superhero! Another informative and fun video. Stay safe and keep it up!
i LOVED this show so much! the absolute randomness was fantastic!
My favorite series. Thank you guys
Grew up watching this and it's gold
I used to do an on point impression of Bo-Ron/ Mo-Ron much to the delight of my collegiate buddies. Man, good times. Weird thing is I knew the references because my parents were older when they had me and I was introduced to all the classics. Hence my vast knowledge of the obscure and eccentric.
Man I remember watching this weekday afternoons.. love this show
FINALLY BEEN WAITING FOR THIS EPISODE. ABOUT DAMN TIME!!!!!
It would be awesome if there was a crossover of Batman and Freakazoid, a real one.
Super underrated one of my favorite cartoons growing up freakzoid could come back on TV right now in do amazing
Relax-O-Vision is still my fav episode, funny, random and completely ahead of its time
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS!!!!!! I love freakazoid
Who doesn't love this lunatic 🤪
Yay Freakazoid!!!
Looking good brother I see you working during this quarantine.
Ahh so cool I found this now! :') I recently made a sort of tribute painting to him ^^ such nostalgia!! Thanks for the effot guys!
I was 29 when Freakazoid! can out. LOVE IT!!! Do an esp. on The TICK animated series. SPOON!!!!!!!
Yes please!
So happy to see the Relax-O-Vision, that was my favourite gag.
Lord bravery was tooo funny!!!
thank you for the note at the beginning :)
One of the best underrated shows back then!!!!!
I guess I was an odd kid, since I LOVED Freakazoid as a kid.
Freakazoid season 3 coming to adult swim September 6 at midnight
Great episode on a great show from the past.
Armondo Guitierrez which I think was his first villian that he went up against is voiced by Ricardo Montalbán who was also the villain on the 1st Naked Gun movie as well as many other things.
RIP Ed Asner
Maaaaan, I LOVED THIS SHOW!!!
We NEED a Deadpool/Freakazoid crossover. It would be EPIC!
This was awesome 👏🏽
It was like WB’s own version of Deadpool
My favorite gag is when Freakazoid is trying to get this nerd to stop stalking him by giving him something signed by Stan Lee. The nerd asks "Whose that?", to which Freakazoid replies "I dunno." That always cracked me up.
Hey you didn't mention long horn and six shooter those were awesome villains
Ahh yes, the wannabe Nashville recording artist and the zombie cowboy 😂
Freakazoid was an introduction to the various memes we see online to this day.
Oh okay, my son been working out? Looking slim my guy!!
i had so many fun memories with this show, i think it could be a fun comic
I was a baby when it first came out but the reruns were my favorite show for a good while as a kid I loved how random it was and I was just disappointed by how nobody seemed to remember this show except for me (in Florida at least)
I just ordered the complete Freakazoid series, along with the Animaniacs. 🤘F!
YOU GUYS BEAT CHANNEL FREDERATOR TO DO THIS SHOW!! You don't know how much I've been waiting on someone to cover this I've even been asking for a 107 for YEARS still nothing
I argue that Freakazoid was competing in a crowded field. Between the Tick, Darkwing Duck and Bonkers there was plenty of superhero shenanigans.
I love FanBoy; I know so many of them. And Steven Furst was so great as his voice.
Best episode ever was one with Norm Abram. The fact that they had him autographing 2 x 4s at a lumber store alone was amazing.
I was 8 when this show came out. I loved it, and still do.
90s wacky and funny animated shows
Can you do a “ things we didn’t know about “The mask “ the animated series
This show was brilliant! Nine year old me loved this show and i still do!
As an adult with ADHD I can totally see why I used to enjoy this show as a child growing up... It's the only super hero who is hyperactive and distracted!!! hahahaaaaa
I'd be lying if I said I didn't pause this to listen to the song. Freak-a-zoids and robots report to the dance floor!
RIP Don Messick
As a young individual, I had an unusual attraction to Freakazoid. Now I know that is was a early on set of who I find attractive animated wise. Neeedless to say..... Freakazoid can get IT!!!! Thank you for you time.
I was 5 and 6 during its run and I loved it and love it still
Freakazoid/Road Rovers Crossover.
With a little bit of Histeria.
Also Happy 25th Anniversary to Freakazoid!
Best part is how weakly he would say “freakout” 😂 c’ mon commit to it
The Creeper was my favorite comic book back in the 70s.
He was a Joker super hero, with a lot of athletics.
Talk about coincidence .just over the weekend I was watching Freakazoid! on Kimcartoons and the show is still funny .
Relax-o-vision was my Zen in the chaos of childhood.
9:57
Hey, don't forget his power of telekinesis.
If freakazoid got a reboot I can see it as a spiderman/(kid friendly) deadpool type of hero
With flash level speeds and superman strength
This came out during sophomore year in college. It was hilarious.
