I don't remember watching this program back when it premiered 25 years ago, but it's amazing that it first aired exactly 11 years after Pee-wee's Playhouse, another popular program from CBS's Saturday mornings. Weird Al previously worked on another years before on MTV, Al TV, which I don't remember watching. Well, the prince of parodies has his own show featuring a cast of characters like Hooded Avenger and Al's wonder hamster Harvey. In pretty much every episode, there is a moral lesson to learn like in one of my favorites, "Back to School," where we learn that you can't learn too many subjects all at once. In some of the episodes, you even get to see Fatman cartoons.
