HELLOOO NURSE- Animaniacs Discussion

[Zany Orange Dude]

So, I am a huge Animaniacs fan and I think we have a few others here as well!:twink:

This show has humor that appeals to children and adults alike! Never has a marketed kids show been able to get away with the adult humor that Animaniacs snuck past the sensors!

So, what are some of your favorite episodes, moments, and characters from this zany to the max show?

[Jester]

My favorite bit comes from Hooked on a Ceiling where Yakko, Wakko, and Dot paint over Michelangelo's (who by the way was a real life person and not just a Turtle) "naked people" and then are convinced to help him paint naked people all over the church, because they like painting naked people. It's a great bit.

[Zany Orange Dude]

That is one of my favorite episodes! I think that scene is hilarious! Because you know, they didn't do it for the money and they didn't do it for the sake of art!

"I wouldn't go flashing that around if I were you, Mike. This is a church." Gotta love Yakko.

*Gasp* Michelangelo was a real person! I always thought he was the party dude on TMNT! I guess it is true, that you learn something new everyday.:tlol::twink:

[XERO]

One of my favorite songs from the show.

pM-igYjn6E4

[Zany Orange Dude]

"Then someone said, 'I think they're attacking!'
Magellan said, 'What?' And got hit by a spear."

I was on the floor laughing the first time I ever saw this!:tlol: And it still has the same effect on me!:tgrin:

[MrPliggins]

One of my favorite '90s cartoons. I've had the dvd sets for about 3 years..and I still haven't watched them all. Maybe I should break them out again. I always loved the episode "Potty Emergency".

[Zany Orange Dude]

Ah yes, Potty Emergency. A true classic.:tgrin: I still remember seeing that one on TV as a kid.My sibling and I ran around the living room screaming that!

You should definitely break them back out! I think I'll get mine out as well.

[Jester]

As a Rob Paulsen fan, I'm sure you can all just guess what one of MY favorite Animaniacs songs is? :D

[Zany Orange Dude]

Hmm? Could it possibly be Nations of the world?:trazz: He did a fantastic job on that song! I don't think there is a singe person out there who after hearing this song didn't try and memorize it.

I don't think anyone could have pulled off Yakko's voice as good as Paulsen did! What are some of your favorite lines that he delivers as Yakko?

[SherlockJr]

I love the parodies they did on that show, like Jokeahontas and Super Strong Warner Siblings. Oh, and the episode where they end up in hell (featuring the horrors of eternal damnation, such as being forced to watch The Facts of Life and listen to whiny protest songs from 60s). Aside from the Warner Trio, I also loved Slappy the Squirrel.

[Jester]

What are some of your favorite lines that he delivers as Yakko?
My absolute favorite is "Goodnight, everybody!"

[Zany Orange Dude]

It wouldn't suprise me if that is Paulsen's favorite as well!:tlol: It seems that Yakko and Pinky are some of his favorite roles.

[SherlockJr]

My absolute favorite is "Goodnight, everybody!"

LOVE that line! The innuendos are magnificent. Anyone remember the "finger Prince" joke? :lol::lol:

[Jester]

LOVE that line! The innuendos are magnificent. Anyone remember the "finger Prince" joke? :lol::lol:
Of course....:P

[SherlockJr]

I love this exchange as well during a thanksgiving episode.

Hunter: "Give me the bird!"
Yakko: "We'd love to, but the Fox censors won't allow it."

[Zany Orange Dude]

That's one of my favorites as well Sherlock! Pure genius thoughs writers!

Anyone remember Bubba Bo Bob Brain with the, "I'd say puberty was inordinately kind to you."

[SherlockJr]

That's one of my favorites as well Sherlock! Pure genius thoughs writers!

Anyone remember Bubba Bo Bob Brain with the, "I'd say puberty was inordinately kind to you."

Ah YES! :lol:

[Zany Orange Dude]

Good folk of Anvilania we welcome our new king, so raise your hammers high and let the anvils ring!

[Jester]

Lake Titicaca oh Lake Titicaca it's between Bolivia and Peru.
Lake Titicaca yes Lake Titicaca with waters tranquil and blue.
Lake Titicaca yes Lake Titicaca why do we sing of its fame?
Lake Titicaca oh Lake Titicaca 'cause we really like saying its name!
TITICACA!

[Zany Orange Dude]

It's a great big universe and we're all really puny!
Just tiny little specks about the size of Mickey Rooney!

[Jester]

Costa Rica, Belize, Nicaragua, Bermuda
Bahamas, Tobago, San Juan,
Paraguay, Uruguay, Surinam
And French Guiana, Barbados, and Guam.

[KROW]

The garage sale bit was funny, where they tried to literally buy the man's garage. Also, Dot's little rhyme that goes "Fuzzy Wuzzy was a bear, Fuzzy Wuzzy had no hair, so he changed his name to Ed Asner" had me laughing good.

And I can't remember which episode it's from, but I love Yakko's remark after a king raises his arms yelling, "This means war!" and he replies, "I thought it meant, 'touchdown.'"

[Candy Kappa]

My absolute favorite is "Goodnight, everybody!"

yes! same here

Garage Sale of the Century was funny! I, myself enjoyed the part where Wakko is trying to fix the garages remote!

That was from the episode King Yakko!:tlol: Funny you should mention that one, I just so happened to watch it this morning!:tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, Animaniacs. I loved this show. Besides the Warner Trio my favorite characters are: Slappy and Skippy Squirrel, The Feathers, Mindy and Buttons, Rita and Runt, and Pinky and the Brain.

One of Mom's and my favorite episodes is "Woodstock Slappy" when Slappy asks Skippy who the band on stage is, and it's The Who. A great Who's on First? parody.

Thier Power Rangers parody is disturbingly accurate

Thier Power Rangers parody is disturbingly accurate

Oh God yes. I was commenting on that to my sister the other day. :lol:

[ZariusTwo]

"RIGHT":lol:

[Jester]

Super Strong Warner Siblings.
Hey Hey Super Sibs!
UVqf8ZfHtBs

Tress MacNeille as Rita is sooo spot on it's hilarious.

[SherlockJr]

LOL. "Have a fat-free yogurt."

[Zany Orange Dude]

"AHHHH! THIS NEVER WORKS!"
Then why do you always use that plan?:tlol:

Minerva Mink was such a risque character-- makes you wonder how the moral guardians didn't make sure to snip her out right away.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I don't know! I still can't believe the censors didn't throw a fit over this!http://www.ospreygraphix.com/Screen%20Shots/Animaniacs/Minerva-mink/Meet/Bathing/Minerva-Meet-Bathing109.jpg

[Jester]

So it was Animainacs that started the Furries. I knew the whole series was too good to be true.

[Peanut]

Gotta say I never thought Animaniacs was very funny. In fact, most Warner cartoons from that time period were entirely unappealing to me. Loved me some Looney Toons, though.

[Zany Orange Dude]

Gotta say I never thought Animaniacs was very funny. In fact, most Warner cartoons from that time period were entirely unappealing to me. Loved me some Looney Toons, though.

Everyone has a different sense of humor, I suppose. I love both Animaniacs and Looney Tunes.

Another segment that I have always been fond of is Bumbi. The one about Slappy Squirrel taking her nephew Skippy to see the movie Bumbi, a.k.a. Bambi.:tlol:

[SherlockJr]

The only segments of Animaniacs I never cared for were Buttons and Mindy, Rita and Runt (except for Les Miseranimals), and Katie Kaboom. The first one was especially annoying and predictable.

[ZariusTwo]

The only segments of Animaniacs I never cared for were Buttons and Mindy

Why?

WHY?

:P

[SherlockJr]

Why?

WHY?

:P

It wasn't terrible or anything, it just got so repetitive and annoying. Not really my cup of tea. Also, Buttons always got blamed for Mindy's stupidity. I honestly wouldn't have minded had that kid been plowed down by a train. Survival of the fittest.

[Zany Orange Dude]

My personal least favorite shorts were Katie Ka-boom and the Hip Hippos. Damn annoying hippos:tgrumble:. I always skip them when I watch the DVDs.

[Turo602]

Okay one time Randy Beaman knew this creepy guy and Randy Beaman says to him get lost and so he did and nobody ever found the guy. It's true, kay bye.

[SherlockJr]

Oh, I forgot about those hippos! They annoy the heck out of me too!

[Zany Orange Dude]

Okay one time Randy Beaman knew this creepy guy and Randy Beaman says to him get lost and so he did and nobody ever found the guy. It's true, kay bye.

I wonder if Randy Beaman is a liar or really has that weird of a life?:ohwell::tlol:

[TheCanadiandrome]

Was a big fan of Animaniacs, and my favs were always Pinky & Brain, and I did like the pigeons also. And of course Yakko, Wakko and Dot

[Zany Orange Dude]

"Pinky, are you pondering what I am pondering?"

"Yes I think so Brain, but me and Pippi Longstocking? What would the children look like?"

My dad loves Pinky and the Brain, but my mom hates them.:tlol: I wonder how the writers even thought of the strange concept of two lab mice trying to take over the world every night?

[TheCanadiandrome]

"Pinky are u pondering what i'm pondering?"

"I think so, but where will we find an open tattoo parlor at this time of night?"

rofl! i just love em!

and the pigeons The Goodfeathers, Bobby, Squit and Pesto,

[BubblyShell22]

I agree that Buttons and Mindy did get repetitive, but I loved it anyway. It was just so funny. Here's one of my fave quotes from "Mermaid Mindy."

Neptune: Mindy, you saved the porpoise from the net. That was good.

Mindy: Beardy Head.

Neptune: No, I'm Neptune. Ocean ruler and protector of all the seas.

Mindy (laughs): Beardy Head.

Neptune: No, call me Neptune. Call me King. Call me Ocean Ruler. But don't call me Beardy Head.

Mindy: Okay, Beardy Head, I love you. Bye Bye.

I also hated Katie Ka-Boom. It was just pointless.

Two other segments I liked were Dot's Poetry Corner and Good Idea, Bad Idea.

[Zany Orange Dude]

My favorite Good Feathers was the one called West Side Pigeons, a parody of West Side Story. Those darn sparrows wanted to perch on the statue of Martin Scorsese!:tlol:

[BubblyShell22]

I always liked The God Pigeon in the Good Feathers.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I know! His voice is hysterical to listen too! I've always liked Squit. His teeth crack me up.:tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, and how usually one of the Good Feathers would say something and another would say, "Are you sayin' I'm (whatever it is)?" Then he would ramble on about it and then say, "I'm (whatever)." Then the other one would say, "Yeah, that's what I'm sayin'." Then the boss would yell, "That's it!" and start pummeling on the other one.

Sorry, I'm not good with the names.

[Zany Orange Dude]

The one that would yell, "That's it!" is Pesto. Squit was the one who would call him something. Don't worry, I am not good with names myself.:twink:

Since it is Thanksgiving and all, I thought this would be rather fitting.:tgrin:

[Zany Orange Dude]

"World famous composer and pianist."

"*Gasp* Your a what?"

"A pianist."

"Good night everybody!"

"But that is what I am a pianist?"

That is one of my favorites of the many innuendos this show makes! Has me on the floor laughing for hours!:tlol:

[SherlockJr]

Another good one is "Don't touch my bust!" :lol:

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, yes, I remember The Wheel of Morality. That was good. And I remember the pianist joke. It was amazing what they could get away with.

[Zany Orange Dude]

You said it! They could slip past the censors like no one today could!

"The wheel of morality adds boring educational fun to what would otherwise be a fully entertaining show."

"Who came up with this stupid idea anyway?!"

"The executives at the Fox News Network."

"Oh they did? What a great idea!"

I love the wheel of morality! It delivers infidently twisted wisdom and comedy to all!
But apart from that, this show has a way of making you learn without even realizing it! I am sure everyone can name a few educational segments of the show.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, they often slipped in something educational in there. I liked the one Buttons and Mindy episode that was done entirely in French. That was cool.

[Zany Orange Dude]

Yea, when I first watched that episode I actually thought there was something wrong with my TV or DVD. I kept going back to language options to make sure I had it in English!:tlol:

[Guitar_Raph]

My favorite part of Animaniacs; CHICKEN BOO!!!
IUO32EGdEpg

[TheCanadiandrome]

You wear a desquise to look like human guys but you're not a man you're a chicken Boo!

[Zany Orange Dude]

My favorite Chicken Boo is without a doubt the James Bond parody. It's Boo, James Boo!

http://sharetv.org/images/guide/117115.jpg

[BubblyShell22]

Oh, yeah, I remember Chicken Boo. That was always funny.

[Zany Orange Dude]

Singing was obviously a big part of the show. Does anyone have anyone have any favorites?

[SherlockJr]

The song about Purgatory and "Slippin' on the Ice".

[BubblyShell22]

Definitely Yakko's "Nations of the World" song. That was cool. Also any song Rita sang.

[SherlockJr]

I also loved the parody of "Les Miseranimals", especially the spoofs of "At the End of the Day" and "Castle on a Cloud".

[Zany Orange Dude]

I loved Nations of the World, I wonder if there is any fan of this show that doesn't?:tgrin: I also really like their version of Noel! Thought that was insanely funny and creative!

[TheCanadiandrome]

I don't remember much of the songs actually. I wish Teletoon Retro in Canada would pick this up. I'd love to watch this show again!

[SherlockJr]

I wish they'd play it on TV here in the US as well, though my roommate says she saw Wakko's Wish on TV a year or two ago.

[TheCanadiandrome]

I wish they'd play it on TV here in the US as well, though my roommate says she saw Wakko's Wish on TV a year or two ago.
Wakkos wish?

[Jester]

I love, especially around this time of the year, to watch The Little Drummer Warners. I'm always amazed at how funny yet oddly reverent it is. Go fig'...

Wakkos wish?
Wakko's Wish, a feature length Animaniacs special, kinda like the Tiny Toon's special How I Spent My Summer Vacation.

[SherlockJr]

Wakko's Wish was sort of a parody of Disney. It isn't as good as the actual show, but it has its moments.

[Zany Orange Dude]

Little Drummer Warners was amazing! It is among my favorites! The Warners were present at the birth of Jesus, who knew?:tlol: The Warners are still weird but much more...tame in this episode? They pulled off that episode really well. I really enjoy their swing-like version of the song Little Drummer Boy. It's catchy and causes your foot to tap to the beat.:tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I remember that parody vaguely. I never got to see Wakko's Wish. I just wish Animaniacs would get played on TV again. I always loved it.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Wakko's Wish, a feature length Animaniacs special, kinda like the Tiny Toon's special How I Spent My Summer Vacation.

never got to see either of those i believe.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I think both are uploaded on youtube if either of you are interested. Wakko's Wish use to be available for free streaming on Netflix but they took it down several months back for some reason.:tconfuse:

[TheCanadiandrome]

I think both are uploaded on youtube if either of you are interested. Wakko's Wish use to be available for free streaming on Netflix but they took it down several months back for some reason.:tconfuse:
Is anything Animaniacs on Netflix?

[Zany Orange Dude]

Is anything Animaniacs on Netflix?

Yes, you can rent the show itself on DVD, but you can't stream it.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Yes, you can rent the show itself on DVD, but you can't stream it.

doh! sunofableep! :tgrumble:

[Zany Orange Dude]

doh! sunofableep! :tgrumble:

That's was my reaction as well when I first started looking for a place that would stream the show for free. But if you look around you can probably find the DVD set at a really low price, if you are interested. Or you can watch what they do have uploaded on Youtube.

You wouldn't have to worry about this if they just re-aired the darn thing on TV in both the US and Canada! I wish there were a channel that played shows from the 80's and 90's. :tsad:

[TheCanadiandrome]

You wouldn't have to worry about this if they just re-aired the darn thing on TV in both the US and Canada! I wish there were a channel that played shows from the 80's and 90's. :tsad:

Well, there is Teletoon Retro here in Canada but I'd have to contact them to suggest airing it


But if you look around you can probably find the DVD set at a really low price, if you are interested.

Do u know where to find it on DVD?

[Zany Orange Dude]

Well, there is Teletoon Retro here in Canada but I'd have to contact them to suggest airing it




Do u know where to find it on DVD?

We have Boomerang but they play stuff like the Smurfs.

You can order it off of Amazon, they are selling it for around $8 dollars. But if you are looking to pick up a copy in stores it will probably be a bit pricer depending on where you go, but I've seen them at a Best Buy and F.Y.E. They might, and I emphasis might, be selling them at a Walmart but I am not sure. Next time you go to the store scan through the DVD section to see if you can find it.

[BubblyShell22]

Best Buy would be the best way to look for them. They used to sell them at Wal-Mart, but I don't know if they're selling them now.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Well, I checked Best Buys site and found zip, so will likely go Amazon or could try HMV also

[BubblyShell22]

Really? That's surprising. I would think Best Buy would have them.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I guess it depends on the Best Buy. My local Best Buy still sells them for $40 bucks a pop! But yes, definately try out those two places. Amazon is at least a given.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I guess so. Or maybe they were out of the DVDs when Canadian decided to check.

[Zany Orange Dude]

That, or the site doesn't list them.:tanime:

I really wish Warner Brothers would go ahead and release Volume 4 already! The set has been delayed for what? Three or four years now? Darn executives at WB probably forgot about it or don't think it will rake in enough cash. :tgrumble:

[SherlockJr]

Maybe they'll release the series on Blu-Ray.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, they should release more seasons on DVD and Blu-Ray. That would be cool.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I'd love to see a BluRay release of the show. But it would be annoying at the same time because people would have to start over their collection. But I would personally just be happy they remembered the show.

I wonder if WB is afraid it won't sell? But they have one more volume to release! Why not finish it?

[SherlockJr]

The first volume of the DVD collection sold very well from what I heard. It's not as though Animaniacs is a really obscure show, after all. Seeing as it's been years since the last DVD release, I doubt Volume 4 will ever come out. :tsad:

[TheCanadiandrome]

That, or the site doesn't list them.:tanime:


That's what I thought

Yeah, I guess so. Or maybe they were out of the DVDs when Canadian decided to check.

Never went to Best Buy in person


I guess it depends on the Best Buy. My local Best Buy still sells them for $40 bucks a pop! But yes, definately try out those two places. Amazon is at least a given.

I'm thinking only Best Buy in the States, but will try Amazon

[Zany Orange Dude]

Since it is the Christmas season, I have been listening to, naturally, Christmas music. Whenever Noel plays I immediately think of Animaniacs' version of it. I usually sing that version as well.:tgrin:
Santa's name has no L!
And be won't be to pleased if you don't learn to spell!

[Zany Orange Dude]

Man, Animaniacs is airing on TV in Australia! Why can't it air over here in the US! I'd love to see it on TV again. Well, I guess there is only one thing to do, pack my bags and move to Australia!

[BubblyShell22]

Yes! Totally! They should air it here in the US again. I really miss it.

[TheCanadiandrome]

In NA please! not just the US! Lol

Your right! Heck, it should air all over the world!:tgrin: Everyone should be able to experience the hilarious joy of Animaniacs!:tcool:

I seriously wonder if there is any chance they will ever put it back on TV again?

i hope so! or get it on Netflix for me to stream

[Zany Orange Dude]

i hope so! or get it on Netflix for me to stream

That'd be nice. And how about either the release of volume 4 on DVD or a Blu-Ray release.

I wonder, if WB put it back on the air, how would kids today take the show?

[TheCanadiandrome]

well from personal experiences i've seen in retail, kids today are stupid and wouldn't know good tv lol! :tlol:

[BubblyShell22]

I don't know how kids of today would take it. Some of them might like it and others might not. It just depends.

[clanmalkav]

I think they would appreciate it, perhaps the older kids. I know some of my students still talk about the show.

[TurtleTitan97]

I think they would appreciate it, perhaps the older kids. I know some of my students still talk about the show.

Nice to know there are still some kids out there who still remember it!:tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I agree with that.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Nice to know there are still some kids out there who still remember it!:tgrin:

tis true :tcool:

[Zany Orange Dude]

That is definately good that people remember it! The show is so good! It really deserves not to be forgotten!

On the last week of my Sophmore year, I had just finished off my exam when a teacher began digging around in the filing cabinet looking for something well a friend of mine spotted something and asked him if she could see it and he complied. She pulls out a scroll and unrolls it then called out my name. I looked up and what she held up was an Animaniacs poster. I freaked out! My teacher was suprised I knew what Animaniacs was! I asked him where he got it and said at some store back in 1993. He told me the school use to have Animaniacs boarders for the bulletin boards!

Then this year a couple of weeks ago, I was standing by some lockers when
he came up and said, "Hey, I thought you might be interested in this." and with that he held out one of the ends of a scarf he was wearing revealing the three warners! I flipped and again asked him where he got it from and he answered from the Warner Brothers Store (the one that is now shut down mind you). I wish I could find that scarf somewhere online and buy it!

Wow, that's a cool story. Now I want to buy some Animaniacs products!:tgrin:

[TheCanadiandrome]

i forgot to mention here that i watched "Wakko's Wish" in it's entirety last month while i was dealing with the flu and i enjoyed it immensely

Same here!:lol:

Glad to hear you enjoyed it so much!:tgrin: There is nothing like the wacky cast of Animaniacs to cheer you up when you feel like you've been run over by a truck.:lol:

I love Wakko's Wish. What is your favorite part?

For sure. As for favorite part, well I kinda liked it as a whole. I'd like it on DVD

[BubblyShell22]

Hey, ZOD, that's awesome that your teacher found out you were an Animaniacs fan and that he was one too. I would've loved to have a teacher like that.

Yeah, I know. And one of my other teachers liked TMNT.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Yeah, I know. And one of my other teachers liked TMNT.
one of the teachers when i went to school in Toronto, was a closet Wrestling fan. read Owen Hart's Widow Martha's book and some other Wrestling bios, but tried to convince me he didn't like wrestling

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, I see. None of my teachers liked wrestling like I did.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I drew a picture of Mikey in art class once and another teacher walked in a saw it. He commented on how cool the picture was and said, "That's Michelangelo, right?" and I said yes. He started telling me that he use to play the old Ninja Turtles games when he was a kid but was interrupted by my art teacher.

I wore my Animaniacs shirt out the other day and someone recognized the Warners. It always makes me feel good for some reason when someone remembers Animaniacs:tgrin:. Sadly most everyone thinks I am wearing a shirt with Mickey Mouse on it.:tgrumble:

Hey, that's cool, ZOD. Yeah, I wish more people would remember it, too.

[Gum]

Most of my friends never watched the Animaniacs :( me and my brother watched it when we were little but it stopped being made after I was about two years old and then stopped being shown on TV all together when I was about five.


ZOD did you watch Tiny Toon Adventures as well?

[BubblyShell22]

I used to watch Tiny Toon Adventures all the time. I even had a Babs Bunny plushie since she was one of my favorites.

[TurtleTitan97]

So, what are the chances that we will ever get a live-action/CGI Animaniacs movie?

Babs and Buster Bunny here, no relation.:tcool:

I remember it coming on TV and I'd catch it every now and then, but not often. But as of last year I did watch quite a few episodes! I prefer Animaniacs but Tiny Toons is really the foundation for the kind of show Animaniacs became. I really need to get the DVD set for Tiny Toons.

You watch Tiny Toons, Gum?

So, what are the chances that we will ever get a live-action/CGI Animaniacs movie?

Close to none sadly, but there is always a sliver of hope! I mean, Yogi Bear and the Smurfs got their own movie and Woody Woodpecker is having an upcoming movie, so there is a possibility that Animaniacs could have one. But I see Warner Brothers more likely making a CGI movie about Pinky and the Brain due to its more vast popularity. But as Wakko says in Wakko's Wish, "You gotta cheer up, and never-ever give up hope!":tgrin:

[BubblyShell22]

I would LOVE to see an Animaniacs CGI movie and have the original cast back together, too. That would be so cool! But, I highly doubt it.

[Zany Orange Dude]

Wouldn't it be amazing! I bet the cast wouldn't have any objections to coming back either (especially Rob Paulson). Chances are slim but miracles can happen. Who knows maybe one day we'll see it happen.

I can see it now! The opening of the movie has the Warners escaping from the water tower!

Anyone have any ideas for what the plot would be?

[TurtleTitan97]

Maybe It can be them trying to get their show back on the air.

[Zany Orange Dude]

I like that idea, Turtle Titan! Like in the recent Muppets movie! The censors or business executives could be the villains!

[BubblyShell22]

I'd rather see this plot be a bit different than the Muppets movie.

[TurtleTitan97]

How about that in the movie Pinky and the Brain finally take over the world by hypnotizing everone except the Warners and now they have to go on an adventure to save all their friends.

[BubblyShell22]

Yeah, I like that plot. Sounds awesome.

[Gum]

You watch Tiny Toons, Gum?:tgrin:

Occasionally yes :tsmile: I prefer Animaniacs though :D

[Zany Orange Dude]

Okay so, for English I am doing a research paper on the History of Animation, and we are required to have 3 interviews. I ended up getting an interview with Paul Rugg! Paul Rugg is one of Animaniacs most brilliant writers and is the voice of Mr. Director (aka Jerry Louis)! He also is the creator of Freakazoid! I am so excited!:tgrin:

[TurtleTitan97]

Whoa, that's cool! Congratulations, Zany!:)

[BubblyShell22]

Wow! That's awesome, ZOD. Let us know how it goes.

[TheCanadiandrome]

congrats dude! i hope that's a guranteed 'A++' for sure ZOD!

[Zany Orange Dude]

Thank you all.:)

Paul Rugg emailed me back and gave awesome reponses to my questions! In almost every single one of his answers he mentions Animaniacs!:D:tgrin:

[TurtleTitan97]

Man, that is so cool! You are so lucky, ZOD! :)

[BubblyShell22]

That's awesome, ZOD. Good luck on your report.

[TheCanadiandrome]

yeah ZOD, let us know how it goes

[JakeSully]

Although i'm more of a Tiny Toons fan, this is still a solid animated show i use to watch when i was 12 when it first came out. I played the SNES and Genesis games.

Fave characters: Wakko, Pinky, Brain, Yakko, Ralph, Nurse (What can i say i had a crush on her when i was 12), Minerva Mink (Ditto) and Mr. Skullhead.

But this was an excellent spin-off of TT.

Yes both TT and Animaniacs were steller shows! :tgrin:

Thanks for all the wishing of luck and congrats everyone! I really appreicate it! I think I did pretty good on my report. Tomorrow I present a powerpoint on the topic. In the beginning I have a video compilation of how animation has evolved over the years and I made sure to include a clip from Animaniacs (and the OT:trazz:).

[TurtleTitan97]

Good luck, Zany. I can't wait to know how it went!;)

Haven't had a chance to read the whole thread yet, so not sure if this has already been mentioned, but I LOVE all the educational songs.

There's a bunch more...like the Multiplication Song, Bones in the Body, etc. Such a great show. I loved watching it after school, and even learned a thing or two.

And of course, Pinky & The Brain. I used to go around imitating Pinky's "Gee Brain, what are we gonna do tonight?" I'm sure every kid in my 6th grade class wanted to punch me in the face.

[SherlockJr]

Good luck, Zany! I'm sure your project will be the best! :D

[BubblyShell22]

Best of luck, Zany.

The educational songs really make the show grand! I can't name many shows that pull off entertainment and education better than Animaniacs! What I loved best was that the cartoon did not fully focus on teaching children things, it just sometimes was incorporated!

Two of my old friends use to do the whole, "Gee Brain" scenario as well because one of them swore one day the would rule the world.:lol:

[TheCanadiandrome]

Hey Zany hope all goes well

[Zany Orange Dude]

Thanks, Canadian!

Thank you too Bubbly Shell!

And thank you as well, Sherlock Jr.

And thank you also Turtle Titan!

:)

[Zany Orange Dude]

Finally! I finally presented my project Friday! It went over the time limit, but my teacher said she didn't care since it was so good. I showed a clip from Animaniacs (one of Minerva Mink to be exact) and the whole class laughed!:tgrin: I received three rounds of applause for the presentation. The teacher later that day informed one of my friends I received a perfect score on it! So I'd like to thank all of you for your wishes of luck!:)

Alright!!! Congrats, dude! In the words of OT Mikey: "Totally tubular, dude!":tgrin:

[Zany Orange Dude]

:tlol: Thanks, Turtle Titan! I had a pretty 'righteous' time presenting!

[BubblyShell22]

Congrats, ZOD. I'm glad you got a perfect score.

[SherlockJr]

I knew you'd do well! :D Congrats, Zany!

[Zany Orange Dude]

Thank you both BubblyShell and Sherlock!:)

[TheCanadiandrome]

Congrats General Zod! Kneel before Zod! Lol!

[Jester]

Congrats General Zod! Bow before Zod! Lol!
It's kneel... KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!

[TheCanadiandrome]

It's kneel... KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!

Oops I did it again :tlol:

[Zany Orange Dude]

You guys are hilarious, thank you once again.:tlol:

I watched Clown and Out every morning for a straight week. And I still was laughing at it by day 7! I find Animaniacs to be one of the most re-watchable shows out there, I think likewise of the OT.

[TurtleTitan97]

Yeah, this show is totally zany to the max!

[Zany Orange Dude]

My friend's mom is a nurse and her ringtone is "HELLOOO NURSE!" :lol: My friend said when she first heard it she freaked out and asked her mom if she knew what it was from. Her mom said no, she just thought it was be funny because she is a nurse.:P

[BubblyShell22]

Oh, that's awesome, ZOD. I bet now she knows what it's from.

[TurtleTitan97]

Heh, cool story ZOD. Speaking of Hello Nurse, what are your thoughts on her?

[Zany Orange Dude]

Oh, that's awesome, ZOD. I bet now she knows what it's from.

Oh yes my friend made sure to inform her where it came from.:lol:

Heh, cool story ZOD. Speaking of Hello Nurse, what are your thoughts on her?

I think she is the women alomost every male dreams about with long blond hair, and hourglass figure, and long, sexy legs -and she is a nurse to boot! But she has the common sense of an ant. She is the definition of a ditz as there are multiple occasions where a joke is told and she says, "Huh, I don't get it?"

What about you guys, what do you think about Hello Nurse?:twink:

[TurtleTitan97]

What about you guys, what do you think about Hello Nurse?:twink:

I thought she was cool. One of my fav toon lady's, but she's tied with Jessica Rabbit:

Yeah, Jessica is considered the hottest toon out there. It is hard to beat her.:lol: And to think someone like her is married to Roger?

[TurtleTitan97]

:lol: And to think someone like her is married to Roger?

I'll tell you what, he's one lucky rabbit.:twink:

[Zany Orange Dude]

I'll tell you what, he's one lucky rabbit.:twink:

I thought that was Oswald? :lol: Sorry I couldn't help it! Yeah, I am sure many of men wish they could take Rogers place.:twink:

[TheCanadiandrome]

What about you guys, what do you think about Hello Nurse?:twink:

I'm thinking that if I had a nurse like that I'd be chronically sick :tlol: :lol:

[BubblyShell22]

Well, I'm a girl, so I can't really comment the way you guys can. But I think Nurse is definitely the caricature of the perfect woman.

[TurtleTitan97]

Same here. :)

[Zany Orange Dude]

:twink:I am not a guy either, but it doesn't take much to realize what most guys would think of her.:lol:

[TheCanadiandrome]

:twink:I am not a guy either

oh? must have missed that memo :tlol:

[TurtleTitan97]

but it doesn't take much to realize what most guys would think of her.:lol:

As a wise turtle once said, "She's a babe!!!"

As a wise turtle once said, "She's a babe!!!"

:tlol:And as another turtle said, "The girl is a fox!"

The Wheel of Morality was hilarious! I love how they'd say, "The wheel of morality adds boring, educational fun to what would otherwise an entirely entertaining show.":tlol:
