The humor was very self-aware parody and drywall satire humor. It's a lot different than say the humor in the Nick cartoon, which goes for the modern cartoon approach of "loud and in your face" type humor.
Even stuff like the Channel 6 news crew banter is far funnier as an adult than a kid, because now you can understand where they were going with those characters and all the stereotypes. As a kid this stuff would fly over your head.
