Stressed Eric is a British animated sitcom that aired for two seasons from 1998 to 2000. The show follows the titular character Eric Feeble, a put-upon advertising executive, as he navigates the stresses of modern life. Throughout the series, Eric deals with a constant barrage of challenges, from his difficult boss, to his demanding family, to his own internal demons. He struggles to balance his work life with his home life, often leading to hilarious and absurd situations.

One of the show's strengths is its use of physical comedy and sight gags. Eric's actions and reactions to the world around him are often exaggerated and over-the-top, leading to slapstick moments that will leave audiences laughing out loud. The show also uses a variety of animation styles, from traditional hand-drawn animation to stop-motion and CGI, adding to its visual appeal.

The voice cast is top-notch, featuring a host of talented British actors, including Doon Mackichan as the voice of Eric, Alison Steadman as his overbearing mother, and Mark Heap as the eccentric office mate who constantly adds to Eric's stress levels. In addition, American actor Hank Azaria lends his vocal talents to several characters, including Eric's boss, projecting an authentic American accent in each role.

Stressed Eric tackles a wide range of subjects, from corporate culture to environmentalism to relationship troubles. The show often takes a satirical approach to these issues, poking fun at societal norms and hypocrisy. However, it also has moments of heart and sincerity, particularly in Eric's relationship with his wife and children.

Overall, Stressed Eric is a hilarious and insightful look at the ways in which modern life can make us feel overwhelmed and overworked. Its relatable characters and inventive animation make it a must-watch for fans of animated comedy.
