bettycjung 9/28/17. Before I watched this series I never knew that it was an Ambling Production, a Steven Spielberg production. I never thought I would finish these 99 episodes, but it went fast! This cartoon series is timeless in its humor and I enjoyed the subtle references to political climate at the time. My best episode is the "Brain's Apprentice." This is a great series for children and adults alike! And,you really can watch it over and over again. Great music parodies to boot!

hellraiser7 This is another one of my favorite animated shows and also one of my favorite skit comedies.This is basically an animated skit comedy which is cool and it's not really something I see much in animation. I was about 11 when I saw this show so I was still at the time too young to watch skit shows like "Mad TV" or "In Living Color" so I had to settle for this show, which pleasantly surprised me because it actually did something that every good skit should do, make me laugh.The animation is just fantastic, it's sort of a through back to some of the old school animation you would see from Chuck Jones and Walt Disney and it really adds to the humor and targets the demographic their going for because this shows actually wasn't just for kids but for teenagers and adults. It also in a way made the show sort of a love letter to some of the old school animation from Disney and Warner Bros, without them we wouldn't of had what we had now.The music is also great, I really love the theme song which is one of my favorite themes ever and one of the catchiest, I and my friends sometimes sang the song.But what really made the show stand out are in the colorful animated ensemble and humor. The animated ensemble is great I really like Pinky and the Brain whom of course had their own show but that's a different story, Slappy the Squerrel I thought was dryly hilarious as she is so crass, grouchy and a real smart ass.But of course the characters I really loved and I was in this show the most for were the Warners Brothers and Sister Yacko, Wacko, and Dot. All of them by their nature are kinda one character yet each of them have unique persona's and actions to round them out. Each of them look like characters straight from a classic Disney cartoon. I really like how each of them are mad (hense their names) but they are all good natured, mischievous but selfless and most of the people that they drive crazy are total blow holes that had it coming, so in a way their not just mischief makers but vigilantes in a odd sense.But most of all I really like how all three their social able, they don't want to hurt anyone, and most importantly all three just want to have a good time. I always like it when Yacko and Wacko are pining for the Nurse whom is just some random henchwoman that is either helping the producer and doctor in catching them but most of all is simply just there. In a way it's sort of a parody on the crushes we all have for someone we randomly see everyday or even just on some character we notice in the background and wonder about.My favorite of the trio is Wacko whom is true to his name and he is constantly well Wacko and his voice sounds like John Lennon but I really love that magic bag of his that just has anything. In a way it's sort of like Santa's back as it just gives you whatever you want by just thinking about it, if I think about a PS4 console system it will appear in the bag.I just really love the humor which is clever in both visual and verbal humor. There are so many jokes in this show that sometimes it would take more than one watch to get them all. And the humor has a broad range as some jokes or reference jokes might fly over the heads of the kids but for the teen and the adults we can spot them clear as day which made the skits even funnier.There are a lot of skits I love it's hard to decide so I'll just say a few of them.Please Recycle: This is a Slappy Squrrel skit that made me laugh hard as Slappy retaliates against some irritating neighbor whom won't let Slappy put her aluminum can in her recycle bin for a stupid reason. This is an irritation we all can emphasize with where sometimes there is some jerk/idiot that complains about something being recycled in a bin, despite the fact it is put out to be picked up by the trucks or it's cleared marked for public dumping, it makes no sense and isn't it our duty and most important to save the enviorment, think about it. So yeah Slappy I feel your pain.Potty: This is basically a simple Tolet Humor joke but on a suggestive note. It just hilarious and at the same time painful just seeing Wacko just on a quest to simply use the bathroom but every turn he is just completely out of luck and time. That is something we all can emphasize with when we all have to go and god forbid all the public stalls are occupied, wait in line, disgusting, or worse out of order.Star Treker: This skit literally predated the movie "Galexy Quest" but for Star Trek and sci-fi fans this episode is a real treat.Power Rangers: This is my favorite skit on this show and yeah on a side note I'm a Power Rangers fan. It is just so hilarious as it has practically parodied the franchise to a T. From seeing them do the posing for no apparent reason before battling or operating controls, the Doctor playing as a Zordon figure and Yacko wonders how he can talk without his mouth moving (good question), down to the mecha battle which is hilarious and one of my favorite one on one battles.Animaniacs is a madhouse of fun.Rating: 4 stars

Dalbert Pringle Even though I thought that the animation side of things for these Animaniacs cartoons was really very good, indeed - I considered its 3 principle characters (Yakko, Wakko & Dot) to be quite repulsive and, yes, unnecessarily mean-spirited in nature.These 3 annoying, over-the-top goof-balls completely lacked the much-needed charm and general likability that was clearly evident with the original, Looney Tune cartoon characters from Warner Bros. (such as Bugs Bunny, Tweetie Bird, Sylvester, Porky Pig, etc., etc.) in those golden years of yesterday.Due to the decidedly nasty cynicism and blatant sexual innuendo generously mixed into many of the Animaniacs' story-lines, I personally felt that these cartoons were, undoubtedly, a questionable choice for the viewing of young, impressionable children.And, as far as being suitable viewing for the likes of myself (an adult) - I found Wakko, Yakko & Dot (not very original names) to be so childishly cruel in their shenanigans that their overall presence quickly became too exhausting and downright stupid to hold onto my undivided attention for more than just a few measly minutes.Of course, you, yourself, might feel otherwise about Animaniacs. And, with that I say "To each their own, man. To each their own." - Right?

mirosuionitsaki2 Ah, a nice classic 90s cartoon. These cartoons are a little bit too kiddy for my taste, but I still find them entertaining. I loved the Animaniacs as a kid. I remember the doctor and the nurse, Dot, Yacko, Wacko, or whatever their names are. I remember the guards and I remember often finding Pinky and the Brain and hippos from other Warner Brothers cartoons.Quite a shame this cartoon stopped airing. It was very funny, and just out of control. You can't say what "the monkeys" wont do. They'd do anything to get on your nerves. The television screen seems to be immune to the attack of the Animaniacs.I recommend this cartoon for everyone. Get the DVD or something before it's too late! You don't know what you are missing. These things are out of control and funny and weird.
