History WesternAnimation / Histeria

* SpiritualSuccessor: A decidedly DenserAndWackier version of ''WesternAnimation/IlEtaitUneFois l'homme''. The show also draws inspiration from the Peabody and Sherman segments of ''WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle'', the history songs on ''WesternAnimation/SchoolhouseRock'', and Creator/StanFreberg's comedy album ''The United States Of America, Vol. 1''.

* CanadaEh: The episode "North America" began with a song about Canadian stereotypes sung to the tune of "O Canada".

* GutturalGrowler: Froggo possesses a very deep voice and sounds like he's growling whenever he talks. Still, he's overall very friendly.

** Likewise, theme tunes spoofed for character jingles include ''Series/{{Branded}}'' (Father Time), ''Series/{{Bewitched}}'' (Miss Information), ''Series/{{Bat Masterson|1958}}'' (Loud Kiddington), ''Series/TheManyLovesOfDobieGillis'' (Toast), ''Gidget'' (Pepper Mills), and ''Series/ThePattyDukeShow'' (Big Fat Twin Babies).

** The "Peace, Land, and Bread" song implies that Lenin seized power directly from Tsar Nicholas when he was actually removed by the advisory parliament and the Petrograd Soviet; Lenin took over six months after this. He wasn't even in the country at the time.

* ArtisticLicenseGeography: The map of Europe in the "Germans invaded" section of the "Invasion" song shows a ''lot'' of oddities - thanks in part due to being cropped very far west. When the chorus sings "The Germans invaded the Netherlands", the arrow points to Belgium. The map also shows Czechia as being separate from Slovakia at the time.

** In the "Invasion" song, the chorus sings "The Germans invaded the Czechs". At the time, Czechia (Czech Republic) was part of Czechoslovakia. This can be somewhat justified in that it's using a modern map, but the map itself resembles something more comparable to a Creator/ParadoxInteractive game. On top of that? The chorus also mentions "Soviet territories".

-->'''Father Time:''' And so, we can now say "That's a wrap" on this article, so we'll see you all around on... ''Histeria!'' However, I have only one request: can we do a little more research before we get this page publicised?!\\

** A cat burps up MickeyMouse's shorts in "Really Really Oldies but Goodies".

* TheRealSpoofbusters: A SongParody of the Film/{{Ghostbusters}} theme called "Trust Buster", the nickname [[UsefulNotes/TheodoreRoosevelt Teddy Roosevelt]] earned for breaking up big businesses (or Trusts) at the turn of the 20th Century. The kids wear jumpsuits; Teddy wears a proton pack and blasts {{Corrupt Corporate Executive}}s with green lasers.

** In the song "The Sound Of Stalin" a long and mostly accurate list of UsefulNotes/JosephStalin's achievements are summarized. Then there is the line "Building a wall down the streets of Berlin". Although his policies arguably led to its' eventual creation, Stalin himself had nothing to do with the Berlin Wall. He died in 1953, and the wall was built in 1961.

** DirtyCommies: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lHZQXNe2HpQ Stalin]] up to eleven.

* NoIndoorVoice: Loud Kiddington, who is less "Outdoor Voice" and more like "Halfway across Manhattan Voice." Unsurprisingly, he's the trope image for the Western Animation division.

* DependingOnTheArtist and OffModel: Happens quite a bit with the kids, especially Froggo. The artists couldn't decide whether he was supposed to be chubby or thin or somewhere in between.

** The Lewis and Clark expedition is headed by Creator/JerryLewis and [[WesternAnimation SupermanTheAnimatedSeries Clark Kent]], though with Clark acting more like Creator/DeanMartin so the sketch can also reference the ''Martin & Lewis'' films.

** In a segment relating to the Vomitorium, the show presents the popular misconception of the Vomitorium as a place where Greeks would purge after a large meal. Unfortunately [or perhaps fortunately], such a facility did not exist - a 'vomitorium' is in fact an underground exit which easily allows large crowds to exit the stadium. [Hence; it vomits out the attendants]

* HornyVikings: In "Attack Of The Vikings".

* EenieMeenieMinyMoai: A song about Easter Island makes up most of that trope's quote page.
