- It was kind of obvious that it would be hard to meet the high standards of one of the greatest cartoons of all time with the reboot, but this wasn't even CLOSE!

#Animaniacs
What hurt animaniacs,was Tom Ruegger not being involved.and writing team that took over,didn't understand the original show.
Yeah it was clear the reboot was off and didn’t feel like the original.
Worst thing is that they didn’t even tell him or tell him to be in it
@@Woahss71 takes a damn shame, because if it wasn't for Tom ruegger there wouldn't be an animaniacs,tiny toons,or Taz mania.
@@doolbedolc
Tom Ruegger was given a chance to submit a script but he declined. He clearly chose to remove himself from the reboot, and it made the show better. The show had its moments but I can’t rank the original series greater than average.
@@Endore5000 Cindy in this show Reminds me of Pooky The Troll from Dragon Tales.... AND I LOVE IT 😊😊
I only watched the first season and I’m baffled about how bad it turned out.
It was obvious the people behind the show didn’t like the Animaniacs and the way destroyed Dots character was unacceptable
They really dropped the ball for no good reason.
i only made it to ep 2 when dot started with that femanazi bs i even laughed a little at the trump joke and i support him but that dot thing was to much
@@originalgreatdouchebag2866 Dot being a "fem-nazi" should've been expected.
She is the main female character.
I feel like Season 1 was the best with Pinky and Brain while Season 2 was best with the Warners and Season 3 had a good balance
Sounds about right.
In the Original show, Yakko was a MACHINE GUN of wit. He spoke quickly, he was fast to confuse you, when he talked smack, his words basically slapped you with how fast they were.
Here, he's more reserved and laid back. They're no longer Bugs Bunney's aprentices. They're just.. characters.
Wakko now is calmer, grosser, and cruder. Which are all things that go against his character. His name is literally just WHACKY with an O instead of a Y, and yet he’s probably the least wacky of the siblings now.
@@Endore5000
It was life that became more unbearable, the Animaniacs are just pointing that out to us. He’s much better now than his original optimistic self ever could be.
Lol nerd
@@giantsr1eva. Have you seen beauty and the beast? Belle might be an optimist, but that doesn't mean she's one note or unwilling to call out b.s. the animaniacs as i've heard, are the same way, optimistic characters who give smacktalk,roast and ect to others.
@@erikbihari3625
It seemed like these characters were making children and the left look bad in my opinion. Yakko didn’t know what a pianist was. In the first theatrical episode, they have Yakko and Dot arguing and Wakko is sick and is constantly complaining.
I gave up on the reboot after only a few episodes. There's this weird undercurrent of cynicism that I just didn't care for. The original show was joyful and had this air of innocence, but the reboot felt weirdly spiteful at moments. It upset me to see my favorite characters butchered so badly.
So true, it was like every joke made had a sense of negativity to it. The original had jokes made purely wanting to have fun and play around. It’s like the reboot was always making jokes based on something unpleasant.
It wasn't a mess but yes it was kinda mixed up and lacked something I dunno, I mean Dot started acting like Yakko, Yakko started acting like a dad but Wakko, he's bit like simplified version of himself who's overly gross at times and who also lacked his accent from the original. The three also lacked they're original childlike "innocence". And the voices, Dot sounds more like Daisy Duck rather than her original high pitch voice, Yakko's voice is somewhat higher, and Brain's voice is full of emotion opposed to his original monotone voice, but Wakko, Pinky, Sratchinsniff, Ralph, Plotz and Slappy's voice sound the same.
Well when I say the Animaniacs reboot was a mess, I’m referring to how much of a mixed bag it was, and when you mix stuff together that are inconsistent, it’s a mess. I wish it was better.
@@Endore5000 oh in that case, I agree
There's a reason why they call them reboots. They're a painful and annoying kick in the pants.
T R U E
@@Endore5000 So? Watch the original if you're that butthurt about it
Dot using the sexist word _"mansplaining"_ was enough for me to not be interested.
It was certainly out of character for her, heck everyone was out of character, which doesn’t make sense considering it’s canon they were “cartoon dead” for over 20 years so they shouldn’t have had any personality changes. I know Yakko caught up the siblings with a song but still they shouldn’t have acted so weird.
What killed the reboot for me?
Dot sould NEVER refer to "Mansplaining"
When the episode came out, it was already outdated. Plus, even if it was't outdated, it'd still be nightmarish.
Dot’s personality in general was just way too off. Like she was dead for 22 years and got her info of what they missed via Yakko’s song. So her attitude change doesn’t even make sense.
That episode really made me feel really uncomfortable what is wrong with this writers?
Slappy Squirrel is my favorite Animaniacs segment, and I was sad that they didn’t include in the reboot(outside of her season 3 cameos)but, I’m kind of glad she wasn’t, because the writers 100% would’ve horrifically bastardized it.
I legit gave up on the show by Season 3. Season 1 was a really good start and I legit thought they’d bring older characters back as time went on, but no, they used the same characters over and over again, which made the series decline into boredom. No wonder it got canceled.
Yeah it did get stale pretty quickly, however 3 seasons is rather impressive especially with how cartoons are treated nowadays. But it’s also clear the studio thought there would be more seasons and they planned accordingly, which was a bad idea and led to a very random ending.
The thing to remember with Animaniacs was there was a method to the extreme madness
They were totally insane(y), yes but was more like calculated chaos rather than random lols. Well, usually
Thats how i always saw the original
Of course. The Warner Siblings are wild and unpredictable, but their madness was purposeful, and usually directed towards someone who deserved it. In the reboot they just annoy anyone who looks at them the wrong way.
Yeah I do have to say the original is ten times better. Definitely didn’t help that the reboot excluded many of the characters from the original show I mean I get that the guy who voiced Pesto and the Godpiegion from the GoodFeathers segments died and Bernadette Peters the voice actress for Rita is expensive but I still feel they still could’ve had Slappy and Skippy Segments,Katie Kaboom Segments and probably age her up,and still could have had the occasional Rita and Runt segment. And heck with the favoritism for Pinky and the Brain you pointed out they might as well have rebooted the Pinky and the Brain spin-off instead.
I'm pretty sure there must have been many reasons why they only brought back the Warners and Pinky and the Brain, like there is no world where it was possible to bring back more segments but rejected the idea to put limits on their creativity. Then again, considering the executives didn't even like Animaniacs, they could have actively sabotaged the show for some sick kicks I guess.
They didn’t bring Skippy and Slappy back because Sherri Stoner also wrote a few segments and they didn’t want ANY of the original writers. Skippy was voiced by one of Tom Rueggers sons and they screwed over Tom Ruegger so there’s no way Nathan would have come back
"And what is the lesson of today? Wheel of morality. Turn, turn, turn, tell us the lesson that we should learn.
Lesson number 1.
Don't try to teach a old dog New Tricks"
Quite a lesson
The fact that Slappy returned just to get hit on the head with a meteor cracks me up to this day
And she was just trying to retire in peace.
I really enjoyed the Animaniacs 2020 but I agreed with everything you said about this revival. It felt like there was nostalgia behind it. I think season 2 was the best one but season 3 had a lot of improvements but those improvements replacee new issue I had with it. I'd give it an 8/10.
It was good but frustratingly mixed, like it couldn’t decide to be great or awful and decided to be both.
If only tom rueger was still on the show
Yeah, he would have made it at least consistent.
I never liked remakes, never even then, but I was actually really excited of the show because of Ducktales!
However, I only got through the first season and the first segment of the second season…
I too remember being put off by the start of season 2, something was off. The music in season 2 is straight up S tier quality though, absolutely fantastic.
Honestly the only issue I have with it is just pinky and the brain gets repetitive. If we had like say 3 shorts that cycle through it would be way better.
Yup, repetitive skits of the same characters was a big problem for the reboot.
Fun fact: there wasn't supposed to be a season 3 because the contract only was for two seasons. I wonder if they made season 3 without being paid.
If I remember correctly, Season 3 was greenlit after the reception to Season 1. So that production lasted 2 years alongside the finishing up of Season 2. I’m sure they got paid but knowing the way animation workers are treated I wouldn’t be surprised if WB did some slimey tricks.
@@Endore5000 I heard rumors that this may be bought up by HBO Max to have a 4th season. Even in season 3, they hinted this may happen.
They did great with Pinky and the Brain, but geez, they didn’t have to make Brain act like an actual villain!
The way he created Julie AND used her as his “experiment”, he sounds just as bad as the scientists that abused him.
If the series was created for another streaming service, I hope this can be fixed up, along with the other things that needed to be fixed in Animaniacs….
Like the inclusion of the OTHER characters that never appeared in the series?
There was a lot wrong with the reboot and even some changes that didn’t make any sense, but I’m pretty sure that this is the end of Animaniacs for a while now.
@@Endore5000 For now.
But like I said, IF there's another reboot of the series, I hope all the wrongs that were in the 2020 reboot was fixed up.
Plus, the fact that the staff not only not include Tom Rugger as the head writer and creator of the series (Cuz he CREATED Animaniacs), but also not include all of the original characters, save for Ralph, Scratchnsniff, Pinky and the Brain is pretty wrong.
Like "Minerva and Hello Nurse's design are a no no in this time and day!" is BEYOND stupid! Their designs are just "Slightly sexy", not the "Anime hentai big breasted, super revealing and whatever makes the neckbeards go Awooga horny wolf" designs, so "Cancelling" them was a good reason WHY exactly?
But I digress, Animaniacs IS and ALWAYS will be an animated variety hour themed show. If there's a way they can revive the original Animaniacs in a future reboot, or even remaster of the series, then that'd be great.
The only said thing is that if they bring in the original voice actors, I'm sad to say that the original voice actor of Pesto, the angry bird of the GoodFeathers, passed away some months ago.
Season 3 was really starting to step in the right direction so as long as the crew could keep that up I hope it gets renewed.
It won’t get renewed, 3 seasons was a longer run for the show than the studio expected, yet shorter than the crew expected.
This is my favorite reveiw of the animaniacs 2020 reboot so far thx 🙏
Well I’m very glad you enjoyed it!
The thing that i hated was they made brain TOO evil! In the og show he wanted to take over the world to make it a better place, but now he's willing to do ANYTHING to get what he wants
terrible reboot ....cutting out tons of important side characters ruined the variety idea ... terrible terrible reboot
It was definitely not the best, which was unfortunate.
The Animaniacs Reboot kinda just came and went, it barely made an impact.
Very true, nobody talks about it.
@@Endore5000
And that's just sad.
I would say that the worst part of the reboot was the ending….
But I am happy that the voice actors came back! :D
The voice actors were excellent for sure. That ending, not so much, but I can’t blame them considering the show was cancelled when most of Season 3 was already completed.
@@Endore5000 Yeah, I feel bad, I mean, I think they rushed it? I have no idea what’s going on in the studio, I don’t know what their intentions were to bring Animaniacs back. So I try to be grateful for the Actors, for the future of Animaniacs (even if there are no more shows).
@@acartoonfan basically it was supposed to be a 13 episodes but hulu like out of nowhere said only 10 eps so the animators couldn’t think what ending to give the show
@@Woahss71 Ah, okay! Thanks for telling me.
They deserve so much better
They really do
Loved Julia....her final appearance established an ultimate battle yet it got canceled...lile starvox and cindy
The cancellation left a lot of plots unfinished.
Math-terpiece Theatre sounds a LOT like Dot's Poetry Corner which i am totally on for. Sucks it only showed twice
Yeah, why did the best skits only show up a few times, Animaniacs reboot moment.
In my opinion this reboot have some very good sketches.
Same here
Tbh, the only reason I watched this reboot is because of the anime fight even though it feels like it only lasted for a few seconds
animaniacs original vs reboot: - yakko in the original series was the leader(he is the leader because he is the oldest brother) of the trio ,he was the most witty one with a groucho marx personality
in the reboot he's more refined(like if he has a thesaurus at hand) and dont act as the leader.
- wakko in the original was the most unpredictable one,he was enthusiastic, creative, polite kid.
in the reboot his entire identity was consumed by his big eater tendencies
- in the original series dot was sarcatic,sassy,energic,fun loving the reboot she is mostly short tempered,assertive,bossy
the trio in the original were selfless,in the reboot they were selfish
@chistian maestre
Those changes made the reboot much better. It’s a much better mirror to todays society than the original ever did.
@@giantsr1eva yeah but the reboot is the one who got canceled after the third season
@@cristianmaestre3875
Technically it was only supposed to be two seasons since it was on a Disney owned platform. Disney doesn’t own Animaniacs. They got a third season because there was a lot of interest in the show.
@@giantsr1eva it got a third season because of the hype of animaniacs being rebooted and nothing more
@@cristianmaestre3875
That’s not true, it really was supposed to last 2 seasons, but because of the positive reviews from audiences and critics, a third season was allowed to happen.
90's cartoons had a kind of charm and humor to them that most modern cartoons just can't seem to replicate. The Tiny Toons reboot had the same issue of all the wackiness being evaporated from it. Slapstick and clever word play get replaced with references and memes that are outdated by the time the episode airs. It makes everything feel very stale and corporate. The reboot's the kind of cartoon the original would have made fun of.
There wasn't enough bad guy beatie-uppie in it! The Warners were getting beat up instewd; what was that madness!? They're supposed to be doing the bad guy beatie-uppie!
Yeah they were pretty nerfed in the reboot. Which is weird because being crazy cartoon characters is part of their identities. The warners were locked away because they were too looney, like come on!
I was satisfied the first time I watched Season 1, but each time i rewatch, the less good it becomes. There are those movies or shows that you can watch over and over again without getting tired of, like Beetlejuice or the original Animaniacs, but then there's things like this where it gets boring. That's not good.
But i do like the PATB segments
The animation was heartless and inhuman. Not a redeemable aspect to the show. Absolute garbage. Hulu owes humanity an apology
This channel being underrated feels like a crime 👮🚔
Aw shucks, I appreciate the kind words!
I'd think the Hulu Animanicas ReBoot just no where near as Great as the original series
You bet it ain’t.
I heard a lot about this show but never tried to sit down to watch it, same with the original.
I'm still hoping to watch the original someday when I have time. You recommend the reboot after watching the original or is it best to skip
I’d definitely recommend the original, it’s a much more legendary show compared to the reboot.
But if you are curious enough after finishing the original, that’s when you could check out the reboot since it continues the continuity.
The original ended five months after I was born.
Awe man, i genuinely still loved this series. Banger songs. And i loved pinky and the brains return, did it have problems? Sure. But still an incredible return.
Well it’s always great to see someone else enjoyed it even with its flaws.
i appreciate that you made all those points because i watched animaniacs reboot from beginning to end and i didnt watch a ton of the original admittedly, so i was confused why everyone kind of hated it? so i appreciate when people explain the faults and it helps me understand it
I was upset that they cancelled the show too soon but every reboot can have and always gonna have problems now and again. For one, I don’t understand why they cut out the rest of the characters from the original. In order to make a reboot work, you need to have all the characters from the original and upscale their designs to newer animation and not change their personalities too much where they’re unrecognizable, and making reboots is the hardest and riskiest thing imaginable. Even the random segments that show up aren’t funny or very good. I kinda like Starbox and Cindy segments though, and I love how they did with Pinky and the Brain though, it felt just like the original Pinky and the Brain, only better.
I actually like all the season (season 2 being my fav tho) but I just didn’t like the ending but I understand why they did it
The showrunner Gabe Swarr confirmed they survived the impact.
The ending was very rushed, but to be fair it was literally very rushed
The 1 good thing was the fi al ep with that 1 slappy appearance played by sherri again and she still got it
Yes the actress is still perfectly capable of voicing Slappy after all these years!
The fact no writers or crew members from the old show aside from the voice actors and composer came back and the overwelming majority of old characters from the old show didn't return in the reboot cause the new crew members didn't like them and and its no longer a variety show with swapping out segements anymore just the warners and pinky and the brain with the occasional swap up and thats it all say alot.
I think this reboot is an okay show on its own some highs and lows but not at all faithful to the original
It was definitely a reboot made with money in mind, and while the writers sometimes managed to make it worthwhile, it wasn’t nearly enough.
The only one who they brought back is randy rogel but he didn’t do nun except the “zit song”
I think the reboot is a little too cynical. Original was always sarcastic but it never really felt mean spirited i think that might be part of the problem
For sure, the reboot had way too many moments of being jerky instead of silly. Like poking fun or praising certain real people or situations, and not really making jokes about anything, just kind of pointing things out like that’s funny.
@@Endore5000 ya instead of making jokes surrounding topics they tried to make topics inheritly funny at times. It got better after season 1 but still
Now…The animaniacs reboot is a mess. Like you said. But there is a weird charm I found myself enjoying. I never saw a mess of a reboot, I saw a reboot of my favorite cartoon. I can understand why people don’t like it, but for what it is, it’s a fine enough time.
I thought the new show had some good jokes but fell off after S1 cuz it always felt off due to the shows overtly cynical tone which the original didn’t have. For the most part it kinda made sense to slash the skits like Rita and runt/ the hip hippos were boring in the OG but but not doing the good feathers and the squirrels was so baffling. Also agree with all you said about the Warner siblings, like they don’t feel like chaotic kids anymore!
6:13, Are you sure about that? Because the Brain was explored more emotion in his 1995 show than the original Animaniacs or even the reboot!
Little hot take, the background characters in the reboot look like people you see in either I Am Weasel or the 2nd season of Toonsylvania, another Spielberg production!!!
Yeah and it’s just not great is it.
I think the problem is that the Warners are the center of the show. Don’t get me wrong I love them. but Putting them as the mainmain characters means there characters need to be more fleshed out ,because they don’t exactly have limited screen time.
And I think it all went wrong fleshing them out. See in this Wakkos a bit more of a dumb dumb , dots a bit more aggressive in the way she aproches things, and Yakko can sometimes used as comic relief instead of always having one liners. I am not saying that those traits are bad. I am just saying that traits are token as one dimensional. Because honestly I think there’s more to them with that. And I feel like having a more down to earth episode would of helped with that.
But Idk I just been thinking lately.
But I feel season 3 does improve on that aspects.
Season 3 did try its best to improve on past faults.
@@Endore5000 ur right , I did really enjoy S3
Flash shut down in late 2020, I think this is why the animation in seasons 2 and 3 is stiffer
Well that stinks
What did you think of Slappy coming back in that one segment for the last season?
Wish they did more Slappy segments for the reboot as one of the original teams idea for a squeal series was Slappy trying to get a grown up Skippy jobs so he could get out of the house.
It was a welcomed surprise but in the grand scheme of the show, it didn't do much to make the show better.
Here are my opinions on each season...
Season 1
Warner’s Segments Were Mostly Awful
Pinky & The Brain Were Mostly Good
Shorter Segments(near 3 mins)Are Usually Better
Season 2
Warner’s Segments Are Better Than Season 1, But Still Inconsistent
Pinky & The Brain Segments Are Mostly Oddly Bland And Boring For Some Reason
Season 3
Warner’s Segments Are Good
Pinky & The Brain Segments Are Good
Songs Aren’t As Good As Other Seasons
Overall Most Consistent Season
Feels Most Like The Original
The murder pals segment was a subversive take on Lassie
Well it was definitely subversive, I can tell you that.
Hello nurse actually did show up in the reboot granted only as a picture
Cameo but still it was surprising to see her show up in the reboot at all she showed up in the christmas episode of the reboots third season
At least we got to see a couple glimpses of Hello Nurse and a few other older characters in updated designs.
@@Endore5000 Yeah but I find it funny that initially when the reboot was first announced they said that the only characters that would appear in the series where the Warner's Pinky and the Brain scratch and sniff And Ralph and in the episode where they parody Oliver Twist Thaddeus Plotz makes an appearance as the judge
And in third season as character cameos the only ones that show up in that season are Hello Nurse and Minerva Mink The Good Featherers Mr Skull Head and Slappy while I was happy and even surprised to see her return But I was devastated that Rita and Runt outside of the episode good Warner hunting never made any further appearances witch for me is very heartbreaking because they where the characters that where my introduction to the show and even in the episode bun control they where supposed to have a cameo appearance in the from of a hang in there poster but for unknown reasons it didn't show up in the episode at all oh and before I forget chicken boo had Two appearances in the episode's good Warner hunting as the true disguise
Of the hunter and in the Warner's ark episode but as a baby that was inside of the strangely purple colored egg that they where trying to find out who it belonged to
and the clown from clown and out also showed up
Witch completely chaught me by surprise as I just wasn't expecting him to show up or even make an appearance at all but it was nice to also see him make a well deserved return
I'm just glad to see & hear the Warners P&TB again ^^
Especially Yakko ( ◜‿◝ )♡
It was great to have them back after 22 years.
@@Endore5000 this 2020 reboot was indeed different from the original series
And you did pointed out the distinctions,
What it's worth a total C+.
Like my singing lol..
Not good but not bad either.
I grew up with this show,
Basically i was born when it was 1st aried,
Can't tell if we aged up well lol.
Just happy i was able to sit for the zany ride once more, again
I’m gonna just be OK with what we’ve got now. So if the team member chooses to fix the mistakes in the remake I bet all of us will be happy. The only thing I care about is that they’re not forgotten. I love the classics. ❤️🥰😍🤗😘🤩👍🏻
I loved the reboot. It's different from the original but it works at what it goes for. I've always said the reboot is closer to a sitcom format.
That whole "some of the executives being anti-Animaniacs" report was grossly exaggerated. They didn't like the side characters. I don't like most of them either but I still love the original.
To my understanding it was canceled bc Hulu's rights to Animaniacs expired. I see all of your points but I wholeheartedly disagree with Dot hating men or the trio no longer being chaotic, there are several examples in the reboot of Dot adoring men. She never says anything that could imply she wants no rights for males. Her flirting is lessened from how overplayed it was in the original (which was my biggest issue with 1993 Animaniacs, each rewatch makes me realize how experimental and tedious it was a lot of the time) but it is there and I didn't consider its dial back jarring. She's an outspoken advocate for feminism and I think her overzealousness can come across as prejudiced. What I favor about the reboot's writing/storytelling is it focuses on more grounded stories whereas the original was 90% Looney Tunes skit in its simplest form and I am all for that. The Warners giving disfigured mutated clones of them a new leash on life was heartwarming and the reboot has more of that depth and emotional whiplash.
I feel like all this, everything typed here, shows just how diverse people's opinions of this show are.
The ghost and Molly McGee moment 9:44
Must be a great moment.
I liked it plus pinky and the brain was done super well
You can like it, sometimes we all like it, just most times it’s disappointing.
I’m very mixed about the reboot. On one hand the writing was sometimes falling flat with jokes not hitting the mark and quite frankly the music is just unmemorable for the most part sadly. Also the show focused WAY too much on the Warners and Pinky and the brain, I missed Slappy Squirrel and the Goodfeathers.
On the positive side, seeing the warners again is great and there were some ideas in this show I REALLY liked. I did like the new CEO, at first I didn’t know how to react but she grew on me. A part of me believes that if they DID get a season 4, it would’ve been the best bc it seems the writers started figuring out how to write the show and even brought back certain characters in S3. Sure most where just Easter eggs but was better then nothing
I also feel like another season would’ve been much better, they experimented and learned what worked and what didn’t, but at the same time to apply all the criticism would’ve meant not producing season 4 at all until season 3 released and animation takes a long time so it may have just been alright at best anyway.
The biggest problem with the reboot to me is that 90% of the original cast was cut from the new show. My favorite character was Slappy Squirrel; she kind of carried the show, at least for me. It's sad to see her hardly being mentioned in the rebooy
I like that you high patched their voices a little
Starbox and Cindy was for me the highlight of the reboot
I enjoyed it a bit too. Although I always feel like it was just because it was a break from the Warners and Pinky & The Brain.
@@Endore5000 I was genuinely entertained by it. The dynamic for me is far better than say Buttons and Mindy.
Cindy is just Elmyra but worse. And considering Elmyra's been banned, that really irks me.
Also, there's a reason you don't just let a child babble into a mic for your dialogue...it's so formless and disconnected that it's INCREDIBLY distracting, especially if you're trying to be linear like they are (within the segment). Even younger than Elmyra, Mindy and Buttons did that aspect so much better. Even the name Cindy just reminds me I could be watching Mindy instead of this rip-off.
I do agree that children babbling into the mic is very disconnected and unengaging, but I’d prefer Cindy to Elmyra any day.
@@Endore5000 Fair enough, Elmyra's always been pretty divisive herself. For me she was always a great villain tho, and fun in her own right. I loved how she could be the one threat the Warners can't handle. lol But then they've lost that crossover energy anyway, which is the real shame.
It seems like what hurt it, most, was only supposed to run for 2 seasons while everyone expected it to run for 10
Personally, I think the show should have been a Pink and The Brain show mainly. Since the Warner siblings no longer have the full cast, a lot is missing, so having a comedic-slice of life action sitcom would have been perfect! It could have continuity occasionally and be fun! I really liked the enemy Julia and it’s fun seeing B and P defeat her and her crazy mind!
I don't like Starbox and Cindy. That one was not funny.
Not Funny! Didn’t Laugh!
Just flew through all three seasons and introduced my daughter to it. Show was good overall, and it even won awards. Season 3 was made by demand, after only contracted for 2. This is such a hyper sensitive analysis, good god.
Glad you and your daughter enjoyed yourselves!
Slappy returned in season 3
This reboot is one big disappointment. Nothing about it has the charm of the original.
I believe you worded that wrong but I agree!
@@Endore5000 Oops 😅
Imo so far I'd rate the reboot a solid 9/10 just from watching the first two episodes. The new Pinky and the Brain intro is absolutely well done and so appealing...but it's disappointing that's the only other variety we had besides the animaniacs.
But then again I think the reboot's that way because:
1. The writers were probably overwhelmed with the amount of other characters they would have to fit in, like Slappy and Goodfeathers. Also I think it's because they wanted the OG actors to voice the characters (i think some of them either passed away or dropped out, i did some research)
2. Characters like Hello Nurse, Minerva and the joke with them and the Warner brothers would have caused some people today to riot and cancel the show. Also since the OG was made in the 90s most of the humor there wouldn't slide today.
i pretty much stopped caring after season 1 but as soon i learned that Season 3 was the final season along with the conclusion to the show was just so frustating. It was also talking too much about Modern topics (they literally had a Cylops designed like Donald Trump for crying out loud)
Yeah, the original Animaniacs was very much its own side and made fun of everyone. Like, it was always political, Bill Clinton played the sax in the theme song back then. But it was always obvious that the jokes were about everything being very silly and exaggerating to the logical extreme.
Seeing this video i lowkey when i watched it was just waiting to watch pinky and the brain every episode
12:48- They used to call this 'Dot's Poetry Corner'!
I really liked all 3 seasons as a viewer of the 1993 run.
And that’s the best case scenario, good for you!
this was advertised like CRAZY
Season 3 wasn’t, it just randomly showed up.
I have seen the reboot a little bit, from Season 1 to Season 2, and so, I think I wouldn't miss a lot on Season 3
Season 3 was likely the worst one, except for the Smash Bros parody, that was one of the best episodes of the reboot.
@@Endore5000 I saw that clip of the characters, it was too on the nose with the joke of "Hey, these characters are not what you think they are"
People say that they are less zany, and that Yakko and Wakko are less girl-crazy in the reboot, my personal headcanon for that is because they grew (not physically) and that they are one year older than when we last saw them.
Well they’re all literally 22 years older than when we last saw them. Plus they were buried in the ground so their personality changes at best can be attributed to them being dead for so long.
There are scenes where they mention and or show physical aging.
Tbh, the explanation can just be condensed into Reboot it if you think about it.
It's litterally the point of the song. It can be good, but there's defo smthin that will stink because it was taken from wherever it was, the least being that it would be and smell dusty in the case of archives or similar places.
I guess the Animaniacs are self aware enough to know their reboot wouldn’t be great either.
Where did you get the Julia model sheet?
Well it’s on her wiki, but also when you search for Animaniacs concept art, you get linked to the crew’s instagram pages. That’s where you find most of the art.
@@Endore5000 Who's Wiki?
Personally I love this show, and while I agree it has a lot of flaws and I think the original is a bit better, to me it was very good as its own show and okay as a reboot
Totally fine and acceptable, always good to hear others’ opinions on something. I did kind of like it too, it’s so much of a mixed bag it’s like Santa’s magic gift sack, basically endless but full of so much good and bad.
The bad in the metaphor is coal.
Men are good
Everyone is neutral until they prove otherwise really.
@@Endore5000 you made my brain explode from wisdom
I think the reboot was astonishing I didn't like the ending however when the Warners got hit by that meteor and although it was said they survived, I wouldn't give My guard up because Hollywood's full of greedy amoral people who hopefully shall and will get their commepance.
The ending to the reboot is wild for sure

Ok but the pinky and the brain stuff was fucking fantastic
I personally disagree on the animation front. I found the flash animation used for this reboot to be kind of jarring. It doesn't have nearly as much energy or personality as the hand-drawn animation from the original show.
the fact he pored no milk is just wierd
🤣
The question is, what was he drinking..?
@@Endore5000
Wakko was drinking milk.
The studio is 100 years old so I just wanted to let you guys know and kiss if you guys wanted to know about that fun fact
You mean Warner Bros.?
@Endore5000 Oh sorry, I use a mic to send my messages, I don't type because I'm someone with that kind of disability And I'm also in special needs so sorry for the confusion
i honestly gave up after 2 episodes. i watched the first 2 episodes and i got quite mad that both of them were pinky and the brain. like... way to start off with those two wasting an additional episode... but they didnt have others? what about.... i think her name is rita? the cat who liked to sing. the little girl and per pet dog buttons? hell i cant remember half the chars in there, its been so long. what abooooout.... slappy and... skippy i think it was? i seen the bit about the weird drugged out trippy fever dream they were having with the constant singing. the end of that just made me question the animators and the decisions made. i was thinking "what is this mega babies?" like... it was so out of character for them all. i think thats what really dragged me out of the show. because since when did they add such disgusting stuff to the show? i dont ever remember the old show having such disgusting stuff added to it. yeah its a cartoon, but taking it to far is taking it to far. its like no love or effort was even put into the show itself. i myself am not a pinky and the brain fan either, i just dont like them. but man... seeing that was just so disappointing to me as someone who watched the animaniacs back in the day.
It was a missed opportunity to bring back a lot of the original cast and not just the fan favorites. The one I missed the most were probably Slappy and Skippy, because Slappy is literally a retired cartoon character who knows all the oldest tricks in the book. She’s self aware of how silly a cartoon can get while everyone else doesn’t notice, it’s hilarious!
I may be the minority of the people in this comment section, but I personally agree that this series was indeed a humongous train wreck, made by people who neither understood or cared about the original or its fans, more so as, like many modern series, it spent a lot of time trying to be "Woke" and gave almost every character a good and proper butchering.
I'd be remissed likewise if I weren't to mention the scene at 19:37 that combines two of my least favorite things, zombies and body horror with an inappropriate joke thrown on top! Yaaaaaay....🤢But as an aside, who thought adding gross out to this show was a good idea? The original rarely had any gross out at all; even the moments which might have been considered "Gross outs" by some, such as the Potty Emergency episode, the Great Wakkorotti segments and the two times the Warners showed people mouths full of chewed up food truly never felt particularly gross, they felt more kind of "There."(And actually quite funny.)
I’m pretty sure that being “woke” was not involved with what happened to the show’s quality. The writing was poor, that was the main problem.
@@Endore5000 I very much agree that the writing was the biggest issue, more so as the Warners were now shells of their former selves. The addition of a lot of over the top gross out humor only made things worse as well.
The writing and the identity politics and Feminism from DOT was the problem with the woke reboot.
Being woke wasn’t really a problem, it never really is. They just did the woke thing in Animaniacs the fully worst way possible.
@@Endore5000 Really? There's tons of anti-male propaganda from Dot's mouth 24/7 and stealing her brothers routines. ua-cam.com/video/Cg_864IFv-I/v-deo.html
@@Endore5000 Actually it was. Dot was not this spiteful to her brothers. Dot in the original was funny. I grew up on the original Animaniacs. ua-cam.com/video/KE6zmkEeDXE/v-deo.html&pp=ygUTZG90IGFuaW1hbmlhY3MgMTk5Mw%3D%3D
The reason that the reboot was a mess and got cancelled after three seasons was because the people in charge of it was pandering to a group that never liked anything about the original 93 series (or anything that's fun for that matter). Which is why we have a dialed backed Yakko, wacko doing gross out rather thsn being funny and Dot being an embodiment of modern feminism. Why we also have human characters on the show that look bowling shoe UGLY, and why Hello nurse is not in the reboot let alone not the new CEO of wandner brothers. It's also the reason that so many of the jokes are bashing right wingers and never left wingers. ln other words the reboot was made for humorless fun hating man haters with far left views.
Definitely didn’t help they didn’t bring back the original staff. Plus the unequal comedy just repeatingly hating on the same people over and over again got old quick. But 3 seasons is actually really decent of a run, most shows get cancelled immediately nowadays so Animaniacs got really lucky on that front.
Aaaand you made it about politics
@JamminJoel73 didn't the Original do that as well though? Plus it is kinda true
@@gavichealsomething2169 The original made jokes about both sides. The new one does the same thing. There are no "far left views" in the show that aren't balanced out by jokes on the opposing side.
@JamminJoel73 riiiiiight
What jokes are there in the reboot that pertain to the left?
You know, instead of the same old ass jokes about Trump?
No more Rita and Runt
At 9:51 that is not Animaniacs style animation at all
and also they kinda gived a shaiding to evreything witch is fine but a lot of the original characters where not in the reebot What was hulu thinking ? even know i did not know this show in 2020 its kinda confusing for the new like why honestly the reebot for me gets a 5/10 its not bad but a lot is missing
I really like this reboot
I blame Hulu.
