Editing Freakazoid! (section)

==Background==
The show's title character is the superhero [[alter ego]] of [[geek]]y 16/17-year-old Dexter Douglas, a student of [[Harry Connick Jr.]] High School. His name alludes to the alliterative names that superheroes commonly have. Dexter gains his abilities from a [[computer bug]] activated by the secret key sequence ''"''@[=g3,8d]\&fbb=-q]/hk%fg''"'', followed by the "Delete" key{{snd}}something which was discovered when the sequence was accidentally typed by Dexter's cat, Mr. Chubbikins, and was then activated when Dexter hits the delete button on his computer to erase it. Freakazoid has enhanced strength, endurance, speed, and agility, as well as access to all of the Internet's knowledge. He cannot fly, but often runs around with his arms extended and making whooshing sounds with his mouth, pretending he is. His base is the Freakalair, a parody of the [[the Batcave|Batcave]] built by his mute butler Ingmar, which contains a "Hall of Nifty Things to Know" and a [[mad scientist]] lab. His greatest weakness, as he explains to the head of Apex Microchips, Armando Guitierrez, is [[graphite]] bars charged with [[Ion|negative ions]]. He also expresses a great aversion to "[[Sewer gas|poo gas]]".

Freakazoid also has several other abilities; he once developed [[telekinesis]] powered by anger, and once crossed the globe to yell at a Tibetan monk. He also has the ability to assume the form of [[electricity]] and cover long distances instantaneously, although he often simply sticks his arms forward and runs while pretending to fly.

Dexter can change into and out of Freakazoid at will with the respective phrases "Freak out!" and "Freak in!". Freakazoid spends his inactive time in an area of Dexter's brain called the Freakazone, where he reflects and watches ''[[The Rat Patrol|Rat Patrol]]'' reruns.

While the show is set around [[Washington, D.C.]], the locale often varies with its humor, taking Freakazoid to locations around the world.
