Histeria! is 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, and Road Rovers) 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 (i.e. singing a song about Theodore Roosevelt in a parody of the Ghostbusters theme song).


Histeria! aired on Kids' WB from 1998 to 2000. It was to be WB's most ambitious project since Animaniacs.
Like the aforementioned, there were 65 episodes that were originally
going to be made, but due to being $10 million over budget, only 52
episodes were completed before being canceled in November 1998. More
recently, the show has been in reruns on Toontopia TV (part of In2TV),
first from March to July 2006, and then returning in October. In
January 2009, all of the episodes were taken off the site. No DVD set
has yet been announced.







I hope that helps!
