Synopsis
Dexter Douglas (Jim Parsons) is an ordinary teenager--or at least he used to be. One day, while using the Internet, he inadvertently zapped himself into cyberspace and became super-teen extraordinaire Freakazoid (Bill Hader)! In addition to being a tad bit insane, he now possesses super speed, super strength, and all the information on the Internet! This makes him a major target to Armando Gutierrez (Antonio Banderas), the man whose company is responsible for the creation of the new superhuman lunatic. With Gutierrez hot on his trail, Freakazoid must learn to control his new powers if he plans to defeat his new nemesis and save Washington D.C. But if something better's on TV, then we're doomed.
