Oh, This Is A Story 'Bout A Guy Names Al...
Ever since his 1983 self-titled breakthrough album, "Weird Al" Yankovic has been unsurpassed as a proven purveyor of parody and musical satire. His classic film, UHF, a string of Grammy® Awards and an avid (if not rabid) fan following made his 1997 television series, The Weird Al Show, a cosmic inevitability.
Yankovic's signature warped comedy, original songs, TV and movie spoofs, offbeat animation and ability to attract a wonderful and motley collection of special surprise guests are what make the 13 episodes of this CBS Saturday morning show a treasure chest of all things Al.
As an inventor living in a secret subterranean workshop, Weird Al's world includes his pet (Harvey the Wonder Hamster). his superhero neighbor (The Hooded Avenger), the twisted animated Adventures Of Fatman and a roster of friends and guests including: Drew Carey, Dick Clark, Dr. Demento, Stan Freberg, Teri Garr, Gilbert Gottfried, Victoria Jackson, Kevin McCarthy, Michael McKean, Bill Mumy, Patton Oswalt, Dick Van Patten, John Tesh, Fred Willard and Dweezil Zappa.
Plus live musical performances by Barenaked Ladies, Hanson and, of course, Al himself make The Weird Al Show a must-have, timeless delight for all his fans.

A wild wacky zany fun house! - 3.75 out of 5 (8/30/2006)
Weird Al is an inventor with many fun friends, like his hamster roommate Harvey and superhero neighbor "The Hooded Avenger". Al gets himself into tons of fun lesson-learning situations. In each episode, Al packs his show full of high-energy skits and spoofs.
With a variety of antics, The Weird Al Show will appeal to kids of all ages. It's Like a pumped-up Pee-Wee's Playhouse, but Al's show has tons of fun guests and off-the-wall animation.
