HELLOOO NURSE- Animaniacs Discussion

*Zany Orange Dude* · 11-17-2011, 05:58 PM

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

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** · 11-17-2011, 06:20 PM

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* · 11-17-2011, 06:51 PM

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.

*XERO* · 11-17-2011, 07:47 PM

One of my favorite songs from the show.

*Zany Orange Dude* · 11-17-2011, 08:05 PM

"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!

And it still has the same effect on me!

*MrPliggins* · 11-17-2011, 09:12 PM

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* · 11-17-2011, 09:23 PM

Ah yes, Potty Emergency. A true classic.

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** · 11-17-2011, 10:11 PM

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

*Zany Orange Dude* · 11-17-2011, 10:19 PM

Hmm? Could it possibly be Nations of the world?

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 · 11-17-2011, 10:31 PM

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.

My absolute favorite is "Goodnight, everybody!"

*Zany Orange Dude* · 11-17-2011, 10:40 PM

It wouldn't suprise me if that is Paulsen's favorite as well!

It seems that Yakko and Pinky are some of his favorite roles.

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

Of course....

SherlockJr · 11-17-2011, 11:04 PM

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* · 11-17-2011, 11:08 PM

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."

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

**Jester** · 11-17-2011, 11:24 PM

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* · 11-17-2011, 11:27 PM

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