Review of Histeria!

Histeria! (1998–2000)
In its defense
17 November 2001
As did most other people, I thought this show came in at the weaker end of the Warner Bros./Steven Spielberg output. However, that's not to say that it wasn't funny. C'mon, think about "Women Leaders in Group Therapy" as did another commentator. Think of the episode which had a story about Thomas Jefferson played out like an episode of the Jack Benny show. Think of World's Oldest Woman opening a trap door in the floor and speaking to Hitler as he burned in hell. (Yes, that actually happened in one episode.) I guess what I'm saying is that no, it was not as good as "Animaniacs" or "Freakazoid!", but yes, it was still worth watching. Personally, I thought it was a rather funny show (too much Big Fat Baby at times, though), and at times, it was even rather educational. Unfortunately, the reruns aren't played anymore, as is the case with all the Warner/Spielberg cartoons, which makes me very unhappy. When Spongebob Squarepants is allowed to roam freely and these shows aren't, you know there's something wrong.
