It wasn't too entirely long ago that I was doing an Animaniacs binge on YouTube. I think it started when I had Yakko's World stuck in my head and I watched the original to try to shake out the earworm, and the related videos were right there.

Anyway, when my wife asked me what the fuck I was watching, I said "I don't remember this cartoon being at all funny or even interesting, but I'm giving it another shot in case it's more relevant to me as an adult with adult perspective. But no, it's just as bad as I remember."

That cartoon was Katie Ka-Boom.

...and I still voted for Hip Hippos in this poll.

Maybe not funny, but if you've got a sister or a teenaged daughter you can at least kind of relate to Katie Kaboom.

Katie Kaboom was really one joke repeated one or two times per season. Most other segments had a little wiggle room, but that one never really went anywhere.

Personally I think they're underselling how stupid and awful teenage girls can be.

Katie Kaboom and Chicken Boo were both one-note gags. Chicken Boo was literally "Chicken in a suit is the best at X, one person can see through it, You Wear A Disguse etc"

I'm trying to figure out why Chicken Boo is still amusing with each one, while Kaboom is fast forward material.

Yeah I think the answer is "It's all in the presentation."

In this case, the presentation is that it's a giant chicken in a suit with Adam West.

Chicken Boo takes on a darker subtext if you choose to interpret it as an allegory for closeted homosexuality

I thought Chicken Boo was more of a metaphor for imposter syndrome?
