Who hated this show as a kid?


I absolutely hated freakazoid:D I don't know if I'd like it now though xD I did like the theme song!

No I did not hate it then and I don't hate it now. Obviously in order to fully appreciate its humor you have to be an adult however but it was in fact one of my favorite shows as a kid.

I liked one or two episodes I caught back when it first aired. A few years later saw the whole series and really didnt like it. Its just too crass and goes for the disgust humour too much for me. Which may be the turn off point for some. Others may not have liked the crazy-quilt plots that when all over. Which I was fine with. Some of us gre up with oddball cartoons from the 60s and 70s where alot of random happened.

I remember liking it but it wasn't one of my favorites.

I think it's much funnier as an adult.

It wasn't on when I was a kid. I only watched it as an adult.

I'm pretty sure all of us in the 20-25 age group like it more now than we did back then. At least we get to tell kids "back in my day, cartoons were intelligent".

OMG! Everytime my cousins are watching some lame cartoon, that's exactly what I say! And I bring up this show and animaniacs all the time! Dude, we had some good shows. Unlike the b.s. they show now... and the worst part is, that spongebob is the only cartoon close to the quality toons we watched as kids...

I don't think I hated it back in the day...I just don't think I got it!

I watched it recently and thought it was really good.

I loved this as a child, i was quite young when it was on the television aswell.

I liked a couple episodes, such as the one with 'the floating guy who shall not be named lest he come for me.' :P

I think the reason some would hate it is because there is obviously a grab-bag style setup to the material. One week you had the 'Lawn Gnomes' episode, the next week you had 'Tobey Danger.'

I'm really surprised that executives would approve something this crazy-but then again, Steven Spielberg liked the concept, so I guess that overwhelms any executive worries.

I liked it but it always "tired" me out by being so slapdash, even for a cartoon. I actually watched it more because of my parents who actually understood half the insanity.

Oh my god! You killed Fritz! You yellow stinking fairies killed Fritz!

Its still one of my all time favorite shows. Freakazoid is a wacky dude.
