Can we have a Freakazoid thread?
Amateur, you did it wrong. You gotta do it like this:
Hey /co/, wanna have a Freakazoid thread?
>>77990715
WOULD I?!
>>77990778
That's better. Now explain all the difference between the first season and the second season.
>watch first cable episode of MST3K - The Crawling Eye
>recognize that Freakazoid did a spoof of this obscure horror flick
Well played, F!
>>77990915
The show continued after the first season.
>>77990915
After the first season, didn't the Network want them to switch to longer, single adventures per episode compared to the first season, where they crammed as many skits in as they damn well pleased?
The best credits gag ever.
>>77991036
Ouch.
>>77991511
I actually get a little choked up when they sing "We'll Meet Again" at the end of Season 2.

I hated that episode, but damned if that doesn't make it more worth it.
>>77992239
It wasn't the best, but I liked it.HAVE A WONDERFUL TIME NOW
Fuck you, Jamie Kellner.
I didn't really like the first season all that much, mainly because it tried to be a sketch comedy like Animaniacs, but once they turned it into a comedic Superhero show where the plots lasted most of the episode, it was great

How do you feel about Jack Valenti and his cheekbones?
>>77993646
HUGBEES!
>>77993614
I think Freakazoid aged better than Animaniacs with less reliance on pop culture references.
>>77993691
He's great. He showed us a man fighting a bear for no good reason.
But forget Scruffy. He's just a dumb dog anyway.

Huntsman spin-off when?
I'm fat and I hate seeing fat-hate on the internet but I'll be damned if I don't find Fatman and Boy Blubber to be hilarious

They went with the Dr. Strangelove ending.
Dr Smith is the best character
>>77993931
I turned around to get some berry-water and I missed the play!
>>77994151
And Norm Abrahms is the best use of a guest character. Didn't they get into a competition with Earthworm Jim or something to see who could get the most obscure celebrity guest?
>>77990655
He was my first cartoon husbando

I heard when they brought him in, they were watching to see how he'd react to his screwball lines, and he just read them totally straight because that's the kind of consummate professional he was
>>77994006
"And so the Freakaclone traveled throughout the kingdom, people were angry, and there was much wailing and gnashing of teeth and...Boopie are you going to eat that?"
"Nuh-uh."
"Can I have it?"
"Uh-huh."
>swallows it whole
I don't know why but I always thought that was hilarious

>I'm here for the first taping of my new show!
>Oh.. oh Huntsman I'm sorry. Nobody told you? It's been canceled
>What?
>That free time slot on Adult Swim? It turns out it was already earmarked for Brickleberry reruns
>Darn the luck, DARN!
>>77994006
I reckon because it wasnt so much a fat joke as a pun
Hey i as just talking to Harlan on the internet and I was just telling him I hadn't seen a good cyberspace scene like this one since Tron, which is not the film that broke the bank at Disney in 1983 at Disney as some believe. No, Tron came out in 82, three years after Disney's The Black Hole which was movieland's equivalent to the Hindenburg. What a disaster! And the robots? They made R2-D2 look like Lawrence Olivier. Their big film that bombed in 83 wasn't Tron it was Something Wicked This Way Comes, which is actually pretty fun! But it comes across too soft and it lost a fortune! Anyway, that brought about the arrival of Eisner and Katzenberg...

There was going to be a Lord Bravery spin-off but it turns out there was already another show called Lord Bravery. I think it was a cooking show on Food Network.
>>77994774
>you could call it 21 and Pregnant. That name's not taken yet
>21 and Pregnant??? Does that sound like a superhero show!?!
>Well you could add "Lord" in front of it.

>Who would play him in a live-action movie/voice him in a CGI movie?
You know it would be CGI, everything is now a days.
>Would the person who plays him also play his alternate nerd form?
>Would Spielberg have any kind of hand in the project?
Personally, I would have Freakazoid completely CGI and the rest of the world be realistic as possible. Imagine something between movie The Mask and comic-book The Mask.
>>77994869
I think it'd be best to have it be live-action all the way. It's too bad we can't give Paul Rugg the body of a 20 year old

I love Dexter's mom.
"You spend too much time on that computer."
"It's my life."
"That's so very, very, sad!"
She says it with actual emotion, but her facial expression remains a prefer stepford-smiler. She may be the craziest person on the show, deep down.
>>77995134
she said it with a stepfordy voice too though
>>77995144
Yeah, my mistake. But I stand by my point.

it was fucking hilarious for sure
Freakazoid is probably the closest thing you can get to improv comedy in animation.
It's so whimsically funny that it starts to seem like they made most of it up on the fly.
>>77995230
I believe they did, in some cases. I'm fairly certain Freakazoid's whole thing at the dance in the first episode was a bunch of random things Paul Rugg said in the audition, and they liked it enough that they just used it.
>>77995230
>Closest thing
Loren Bouchard would like a word with you, but yeah!
Is that like that Force thing in Star Wars?
I like those movies. Carrie Fisher is a real cutiepie.

Freakazoid also contained the only acceptable use of poor animation lip syncing besides mocking poorly dubbed martial arts movies.
>>77995945
The Critic also had Jay criticize the bad lip sync in an animated movie (was that ever a problem in the 90s? it was spoofing disney) and then his own lip sync goes out as he repeats AWFUL I TELL YOU

didnt freakazoid make a joke about how bad she must smell wearing that tight sweaty outfit in the sewer
