''Toonsylvania'' is an animated television series, which ran for two seasons in 1998 on the Fox Kids Network block〔 (usually placed in a block called "The No Yell Motel" that contained other scary kids shows such as ''Goosebumps'' and ''Eerie, Indiana'') in its first season, then was moved to Monday afternoons from September 14, 1998 until January 18, 1999, when it was cancelled. It was executive produced in part by Steven Spielberg, as the first DreamWorks' animated series. The show had recurring cartoon series that appeared in each episode. Unlike ''Animaniacs'', ''Toonsylvania'' didn't have a wide range of characters and almost every episode had the same cartoon segments. ==Synopsis== A typical episode of ''Toonsylvania'' starts with a cartoon series called "Frankenstein" (a parody of Mary Shelley's novel of the same name), about the adventures of Dr. Frankenstein (voiced by David Warner), his assistant Igor (voiced by Wayne Knight) who always sets out to prove that he's an genius like his master, and their dim-witted Frankenstein Monster known as Phil (voiced by Brad Garrett). Before the second cartoon, there is an animated vignette where Igor is on the couch with Phil and tries to fix the TV remote, but in every episode there's a new problem with it (a running gag akin to the couch gags seen on ''The Simpsons''). After that, there is a cartoon series called "Night of the Living Fred", about a family of zombies. This segment was created by Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Mike Peters. Sometimes, a parody of a B-list horror movie would air instead of a "Night of the Living Fred" cartoon. After that is a short segment called "Igor's Science Minute", where Igor gives a science lesson (be it a musical piece or a spoken piece) that always ends in disaster. The final segment is "Melissa Screetch's Morbid Morals", where Phil the Frankenstein monster does something bad and Igor punishes him by reading a horror tale involving a bratty girl named Melissa Screetch (voiced by Nancy Cartwright of ''Simpsons'' fame) who doesn't heed the warnings of adults (usually given by her mother) and suffers the consequences one way or the other for it. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Toonsylvania」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
