Histeria! was an American animated television series of the late-1990s, created by Tom Ruegger (who also created Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain, Freakazoid) at Warner Bros. Animation. Unlike other similar shows by Warner Bros., Histeria! ' s purpose was not simply to entertain, but to also attempt to teach history as well, a residual effect of the network having to meet the FCC's recently implemented educational/informational requirements. A regular cast of characters would visit a different period or event in history and explain the event in a humorous skit or short segment. Frequently things were made into songs, historical figures had celebrity personalities, and various segments parodied contemporary entertainment.
Histeria! aired on Kids' WB from 1998 to 2001. More recently, it has been in reruns on Toontopia TV (part of In2TV), first from March to July 2006, and then returning in October. As of May 2007, it is currently the only one of Kids' WB's classic comedy shows still broadcast there. All 52 episodes are available, but no DVD set has yet been announced.
Histeria! may have been influenced by 1978 French TV series Il était une fois l'homme (Once Upon a Time... Man). The French series featured the familiar series cast reappears as the contemporary figures of every historical time.
Today, Histeria! is mostly culture and fan art for many website on the Internet like Youtube and DeviantArt.
