{{Main|List of Freakazoid! episodes}}
''Freakazoid!'' premiered on [[Kids' WB]]'s Saturday lineup on September 9, 1995.<ref name="comedy" /> During its run, ''Freakazoid!'' came across problems of appealing to its target demographic, young children. [[Tom Ruegger]] said that ''Freakazoid!'' had done poorly in ratings because the audience that the series gathered was older than the target audience.<ref name="dvdint1" /> Also, ''Freakazoid'' ran into timeslot problems. Writer [[John P. McCann|John McCann]] said that the time slot of the series changed frequently: "They put it at eight o' clock in the morning, 3:30 in the afternoon, they shifted it all around; we couldn't even find it, and we wrote the thing".<ref name="dvdint1" /> The series ran on [[Kids' WB]] until February 14, 1997, when it was canceled due to poor ratings, airing only one complete season and part of a second season.<ref name="comedy" /> Rugg said the series' demise was the result of a combination of people not understanding the series, time slot changes, appealing to the wrong demographics, and that "(...) there aren't a lot of [[Nielsen ratings|Nielsen boxes]] in federal prisons. Had there been, I'm telling you, we'd still be on the air today".<ref name="dvdint1" /> However, the show was later picked up by [[Cartoon Network]] and was rebroadcast from April 5, 1997, until March 29, 2003.<ref name="comedy" /> The series had a total number of 24 episodes. In 2006, ''Freakazoid!'' was one of the shows scheduled to be broadcast on the AOL broadband channel, [[In2TV]]. The show is currently available to stream for free on [[Tubi]].<ref name="in2tv">{{Cite press release |date=July 31, 2006 |title=AOL to Launch New Video Portal |url=http://www.timewarner.com/corp/newsroom/pr/0,20812,1220659,00.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070802060125/http://www.timewarner.com/corp/newsroom/pr/0,20812,1220659,00.html |archive-date=August 2, 2007 |access-date=June 29, 2007 |website=Time Warner Newsroom |publisher=Time Warner}}</ref> In Italy, ''Freakazoid!'' along with ''Tiny Toon Adventures'', ''Animaniacs'' and ''Pinky and the Brain'', was shown on [[RAI]] and later [[Mediaset]].
