Any interest on the upcoming third season? What's the shows fate anyways with all the totally insaney stuff going on with WB, also yeah Animaniacs thread.
My intrerest is entirely tied to how many of the original characters from the old show are brought back. I enjoyed the first season, it was fun, but it felt lacking with just the warners and Pinkie and the Brain.
give me slappy squirrel at least and I'll be happy. Otherwise, the reboot novelty has worn off.
>What novelty is there to begin with?
Every reboot has very very slight novelty in the fact that they are new content for an IP that has long since stopped having new content.
It's not much, but if it's not a complete trainwreck or embarrassment then you can enjoy even a bad reboot just for the fond memories of the original it brings.
If some of the jokes actually land though then that's all the more in its favor. I liked season 1, didn't really stay interested all the way through season 2. I liked the original as a kid, what enjoyment a show like this gives to a kid is different than an adult who anyway. If it were identical to the original in every way I still wouldn't stay interested because of that fact alone.
I can understand that, but everyone can clearly tell the difference between the separate shows. I think the novelty of reboots in the first place have worn off on me more. The third season always has the potential to turn this around, but the original show did discontinue for a reason.
>watching a soulless rehash of a 20 year old cartoon that lost all cultural relevance years ago when I can turn on any internet livestream in Ukraine and get IRL comedy that way
If you're gonna do reboots, it should have nothing to with the original in terms of canonicity. Literally just steal the IP and do your own thing with it. Like how Moonman on /misc/ is basically Mac Tonight, but turned into a literal Nazi. Or how Verhoeven's Starship Troopers is a straight up comedic attack on the original book.

Slappy Squirrel's the character the bitter, cynical, "edgy" Family Guy humor would actually WORK with, is the fricking thing. It doesn't fit the two shorts they did bring back which had Avery and Jones and vaudeville type tones, basically The Marx Brothers and Laurel and Hardy (and Abbot and Costello and etc.).
Violent, angry, cynical, opinionated humor actually fricking fits Slappy which makes it galling that they left her out. It's like she was the character and tone they actually wanted to use not the other ones.

Slappy is too hard-core for the SJW scene. She speaks her mind, she is never shy about hurting feelings, she isn't above describing 'senior citizens' including herself as 'OLD' and making jokes about anyone's old age, again, including hers.
Slappy's approach to bullying was not to talk things over or anything, it was just blowing the damn little jerk bothering Skippy to bits.
Slappy is a nightmare to political correctness. She's the last character they would want to touch unless to dismiss and mock her older generation mindset.

That's stupid because you can use Hello Nurse without having the siblings go Hello Nurse on her. My take would be having her age (as a 'normal' human) while the trio was away so she's still the unheard voice of reason-only sane woman around them but now they don't harass her because she's middle aged, and she still doesn't do anything bad to them so they will not heckle her.
Granted, that still leaves her with little to do but she always was a bit character, regardless.
>That's stupid because you can use Hello Nurse without having the siblings go Hello Nurse on her.
But she's hot anon, female beauty is a capital offense so she has to go
I'll never understand this mentality when Betty Boop, a cartoon character and supposed sex symbol, is still one of the most popular women's beauty icons in the world among women.
>Slappy's approach to bullying was not to talk things over or anything, it was just blowing the damn little jerk bothering Skippy to bits.
But that's kind of the thing. The want to do that shit where Family Guy is so offensive and edgy and "mean" and shit like that. Slappy is actually like that unlike the other characters. But one problem with even Family Guy is they keep pulling that shit but can't commit to it entirely because they really want brownie point and backpats for being "woke" while making child raping jokes and being as offensive as possible and that kind of shit. Slappy is an actual butthole who doesn't give a shit and hurts people for fun and isn't politically correct. Family Guy style shit wants to do that bu has to pull back at the last sentence and have someone lecture you about not being progressive and tolerant enough or some bullshit because they're fricking hypocrites, which Slappy wouldn't do. She is unrepentantly cruel on purpose which is not actually what the other characters are, they even point that out on the show, ALL of the other majori character actual do have limits and a moral code that seems warped to us but is still there, except for Slappy. She is a proudly violent psychopath and will attack innocent people for little or no actual reason.
>ALL of the other majori character actual do have limits and a moral code that seems warped to us but is still there, except for Slappy
Slappy does have a moral constant that never wavers no matter what else, Skippy. She is consistently and permanently genuinely loving of her and would never hurt him, no matter what.
But yeah, otherwise, yes. You can say that she won't go out of her way to attack innocents without a reason but the reason she needs is as little as the Warners just paying her to blow up the nun from The Sound of Music.
>Slappy does have a moral constant that never wavers no matter what else, Skippy. She is consistently and permanently genuinely loving of her and would never hurt him, no matter what.
Oh yeah you're right about that, sorry, dude. Yes Slappy does love Skippy and protects him, her soft spot and moral part. But like the Warners short you mentioned, outside of that, the other characters do mostly have some kind of general moral guidelines and codes even if they're fricked up and not consistently followed all of the time and all that shit, so there are exceptions, but in general. The Warners most often only seriously frick with people who start really genuinely shit with them, again despite exceptions. Pinky and the Brain are actually trying to make the world a better place despite their goofy plans and they have limits. The Goodfeathers have their whole Pigeon Mafia code and shit. Buttons of course saves Mindy, who is just a very little kid. Chicken Boo is actually this huge philantrophist a lot of gets I don't know anti-chicken prejudice? Rita has a similar soft spot for Runt as Slappy for Skippy but when she does do questionable shit it's just to survive because she has to not "for fun" which is what Slappy does. And so on.
The Sound of Music bit really drove this home, first of all the Warners couldn't break their moral code while Slappy would for money, and next because she ended up doing ti for free only because she thought the Julie Andrews pardoy was annoying after she talked to her for five seconds and she fricking bombed her for fun. In spite of the fact the Sound of Music expy was a really wonderful person, Slappy didn't care.
>Plus in the original show, they sometimes had frills
I'm not talking about frills, I'm talking about her "panties" extending a good couple inches from where they should be resting. >they're not gonna put detail in something like that
Then why draw the underskirt at all?
How does the contract work here, can Hulu just keep ordering episodes? Because if Warner has any say, I can't imagine they will produce content for a rival service still under the new leadership. Animaniacs was ordered before AT&T even, can it really survive a second merger?
Season 3 has already been finished for awhile now, but WB is not going to release it until December because of the multiple holiday episodes that were made

jesus christ... that wasn't the point of the Hello Nurse, also treating her as if she wasn't smart, or that being a nurse means you are not smart or "non professional" crucial staff member is very disrespectful
I watched the first season, and never wanted to watch the second, what a load of shit, Dot is supposed to be a strong independent women that doesn't fall in a stereotype, yet is a stereotype of actual feminism, they could at least have the balls to make fun of it, but that would be not being trending on modern society.
the whole point of the jokes in the reboot is that they're absurd non-serious issues being joked about, by taking them seriously you act like the kind of person the warner siblings would make fun of
They don't even know what the punchlines to the jokes were. They see the setup and screencap it for validation that the SJWs are destroying the show. >look dot said something a feminist would say >ignore it's subverted by what is said or what happens right after
the joke is usually, dot says something feminist and is immediately ignore or disregarded, it's representation, but also makes fun of that representation it's a win win
Either that or it's something like the shards of glass joke. >dot says feminist thing in innocent sounding voice >wakko or someone knocks it down and makes a joke
Kinda agree with this. its just homosexual writers co-opting a popular character in the hopes people will hear their moronic message because no one would give them a second thought otherwise.
Best thing to do is not to cancel Dot, but to use her - shes a character, she can be used to promote any message at all. Hyper-sexualise her, draw her being cute, draw her being raped if you're feeling particularly angry and then circulate that shit. Enjoy!
They only use her for brownie points not to further an agenda. She's preaching to the choir but always with the out of "haha we're not TOOO serious really, it's just jokes".
You though sound like a nutjob desperate for porn.
>people are reacting to both of these out of context when both were the setup to a punchline making fun of the initial comment.

That sounds more like projection of the idea that this show is insulting you by existing. Yeah they fricked over the original writers. No the show was never actually all that great so it's not worth crying over. The majority of the reboot is on par with the original because it wasn't ever actually that good. It was always this smarmy snarky mess that outside of Pinkie and The Brain was never as funny or charming as it seemed to think it was. The jokes and references the Warners made were always low hanging fruit. The side characters were almost all one-off pop culture gags who got way more appearances than their one-not jokes could carry.
That's the reality of this show. It's hilarious to me that the shit that people get upset over, like legitimately upset, is shit that is consistent between the original and reboot. That's rose colored glasses for you.

So you're legitimately upset and being intentionally disingenuous about the show to feel validated?
Got it.
That's not the case at all, it's presented more as "Dot is smart and right and her brothers are feminist allies but the world is too dumb for them and they laugh from their ivory water tower about how enlightened they are (they're not)"
No moron, someone in an interview said that. The show itself then didn't actually do that. Stop believing shit people say to make journalists and social media happy and look at the work itself.
>No moron, someone in an interview said that. The show itself then didn't actually do that.
Yeah they did. Calling me a moron doesn't make your blatant lies true. The joke isn't on Dot for being wrong. Dot is presented as in the right, she's presented as the one "who has wit." The joke is meant to be on the type of people that the new writers and showrunners don't like.

Wait, ok I thought we were all content with her being referred to as "Hello Nurse" colloquially. If her name actually is Heloise, assuming her nickname is Hello, then the joke becomes a double entendre while they're referring to herself by her real name. Sure it's sexist that they fawn over big boobies and whatnot, but the qualm many many people had was she was robbed of being treated like a person. What is the literal difference between Hello and Minerva, a svelte feminine furry girl who's hounded for her sex appeal who's won the hearts of many SJWs for her... independence, strength, ability to hit people who fawn over her?

Was there really enough interest in this show for a third season? All I got from the few episodes I watched was just things people said they remembered from the original series but heavily watered down. Not even worth a second season but somehow managed to get three.
Brain dead mundanes who look only for nostalgia validation lap this shit up, so I'm not surprised. They only vaguely remember the original show as it is, so a cheap approximation feels like the real article to them

The first season neglected Pinky in favor of the Brain, but the second season was actually a lot better about that and had a much better balance.
Let's hope they'll removed her antenna, torture devices creep me out
Yes Julia's first episode was way WAY too EDgY MoM's GoNnA FreAK. People saying shit like "Pinky and the Brain was always that way lol" made me scratch my head so much that I rewatched their entire goddamn original spin-off series AND all the original Animaics Pinky and the Brain shorts for the first time in decades and no it fricking was not, at all, even a little bit. People who remember that shit as being all edgy are remember their own edgy grimdark fanfiction or some clickbait YouTube bullshit instead NOT the actual fricking cartoon, it wasn't fricking edgy or dark and they weren't evil at all, that reboot short just fricked the tone and characters over completely. Her second episode was more in line with something that fit though, but it was still a bit too much in a few places. I hope the last season is better about it.
I would move Katie Ka-Boom down to "eh" with the Hippos. For the first tier, I agree with the first three, but I actually don't know what to put in the fourth spot. I agree that it needs SOMEthing in there, I think it's more like it needs one of these three to round the series out: Buttons and Mindy, Rita and Runt, OR Goodfeathers. I think ideally those three are in rotation as a kind of fourth hub, if that makes any sense.
All the rest periodically as a sort of fifth tier, support kind of thing makes sense, but I don't think The Flame really fits. It and those few other shorts like the wrapping paper and the trailer feel too Disney. They're not bad they just don't fit or gel with the rest of the show.
I agree for the most part, but Buttons and Mindy is actually pretty underrated in its importance, you need a pure slapstick, Loony Tunes type of segment so the dialogue-heavy nature of the other segments doesn't become cumbersome, and by having Buttons and Mindy as a major segment, its traditional approach to toon humor bleeds into the rest of the show.
>Randy Beaman so bad it doesn't grant being mentioned
Based anon.
How was that supposed to be funny at all again? It always felt like filler of such low quality even an eyecatch would have worked better.
Anecdotal, but I have a few women in my family that were and still are big Animaniacs fans. When I asked them what they thought of the reboot they all thought it wasn't very good. I don't think the feminist angle is even appealing to most women, at this point it's just out-of-touch propaganda inserting itself into a formerly decent cartoon show.
Yakko continues to be a beta male
My intrerest is entirely tied to how many of the original characters from the old show are brought back. I enjoyed the first season, it was fun, but it felt lacking with just the warners and Pinkie and the Brain.

What novelty is there to begin with? I know a lot of people must have worked hard on it, but nothing new seems to be explored with the new episodes.
>What novelty is there to begin with?
Every reboot has very very slight novelty in the fact that they are new content for an IP that has long since stopped having new content.
It's not much, but if it's not a complete trainwreck or embarrassment then you can enjoy even a bad reboot just for the fond memories of the original it brings.

I can understand that, but everyone can clearly tell the difference between the separate shows. I think the novelty of reboots in the first place have worn off on me more. The third season always has the potential to turn this around, but the original show did discontinue for a reason.
I'm just sick of reboots in general. Where's the novelty in damn near everything coming back?
Adding new elements to mix up an established paradigm and see what comes out of it.
>watching a soulless rehash of a 20 year old cartoon that lost all cultural relevance years ago when I can turn on any internet livestream in Ukraine and get IRL comedy that way
If you're gonna do reboots, it should have nothing to with the original in terms of canonicity. Literally just steal the IP and do your own thing with it. Like how Moonman on /misc/ is basically Mac Tonight, but turned into a literal Nazi. Or how Verhoeven's Starship Troopers is a straight up comedic attack on the original book.

Slappy is an actual butthole who doesn't give a shit and hurts people for fun and isn't politically correct. Family Guy style shit wants to do that bu has to pull back at the last sentence and have someone lecture you about not being progressive and tolerant enough or some bullshit because they're fricking hypocrites, which Slappy wouldn't do. She is unrepentantly cruel on purpose which is not actually what the other characters are, they even point that out on the show, ALL of the other majori character actual do have limits and a moral code that seems warped to us but is still there, except for Slappy. She is a proudly violent psychopath and will attack innocent people for little or no actual reason.
>ALL of the other majori character actual do have limits and a moral code that seems warped to us but is still there, except for Slappy
Slappy does have a moral constant that never wavers no matter what else, Skippy. She is consistently and permanently genuinely loving of her and would never hurt him, no matter what.
But yeah, otherwise, yes. You can say that she won't go out of her way to attack innocents without a reason but the reason she needs is as little as the Warners just paying her to blow up the nun from The Sound of Music.
>loving of her
loving of him. Sorry, that was a typo.
>Slappy does have a moral constant that never wavers no matter what else, Skippy. She is consistently and permanently genuinely loving of her and would never hurt him, no matter what.
Oh yeah you're right about that, sorry, dude. Yes Slappy does love Skippy and protects him, her soft spot and moral part. But like the Warners short you mentioned, outside of that, the other characters do mostly have some kind of general moral guidelines and codes even if they're fricked up and not consistently followed all of the time and all that shit, so there are exceptions, but in general. The Warners most often only seriously frick with people who start really genuinely shit with them, again despite exceptions. Pinky and the Brain are actually trying to make the world a better place despite their goofy plans and they have limits. The Goodfeathers have their whole Pigeon Mafia code and shit. Buttons of course saves Mindy, who is just a very little kid. Chicken Boo is actually this huge philantrophist a lot of gets I don't know anti-chicken prejudice? Rita has a similar soft spot for Runt as Slappy for Skippy but when she does do questionable shit it's just to survive because she has to not "for fun" which is what Slappy does. And so on.
The Sound of Music bit really drove this home, first of all the Warners couldn't break their moral code while Slappy would for money, and next because she ended up doing ti for free only because she thought the Julie Andrews pardoy was annoying after she talked to her for five seconds and she fricking bombed her for fun. In spite of the fact the Sound of Music expy was a really wonderful person, Slappy didn't care.
>implying people don't wanna frick middle aged women
How long have you been on the internet?
We are talking about Wakko and Yakko though. Did they ever lust after a woman not in her early twenties at most?
>how many of the original characters from the old show are brought back.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
That's a diaper.
Incorrect. They are panties. Everyone know it
Looks pretty bulky to just be panties...
Well they're not gonna put detail in something like that, it fits with the style. Plus in the original show, they sometimes had frills
>Plus in the original show, they sometimes had frills
I'm not talking about frills, I'm talking about her "panties" extending a good couple inches from where they should be resting.
>they're not gonna put detail in something like that
Then why draw the underskirt at all?
I guess most western cartoon girls wore diapers, even Eliza Thornberry
she shat herself.
good.
>That makes me feel all warm and squishy. Either that, or I need to wear diapers.
I wanna frick Dot until she starts bleeding from her cartoon rectum
Dot is cute
How does the contract work here, can Hulu just keep ordering episodes? Because if Warner has any say, I can't imagine they will produce content for a rival service still under the new leadership. Animaniacs was ordered before AT&T even, can it really survive a second merger?
Good god what an ugly drawing.
Your spiteful reboot is dead troon
Season 3 has already been finished for awhile now, but WB is not going to release it until December because of the multiple holiday episodes that were made
That hasn't stopped corps from cancelling things anyways in the past
>multiple holiday episodes that were made
Why did they do that?
season 1 premiered in November 2020 and season 2 premiered in November 2021. season 3 will probably premiere, you guessed it, in November 2022...
I can't even remember if I finished watching the second season.
There was a second season?
>In a recent interview with The A.V. Club, Animaniacs showrunner Gabe Swarr and executive producer Wellesley Wild tried answering that question by commenting on their approach for bringing back the wacky Warner trio, the difficulties of planning two years ahead since production began in 2018 and some of the cultural differences that surfaced in that 20 year gap since the show ended.
>One of the victims of this cultural paradigm shift was nurse Heloise Nerz (yes, she has a name), Yakko and Wakko’s crush and the blonde target for the brothers signature “Hellooo nurse!” catchphrase. As Swarr puts it, “immediately hello nurse was goodbye nurse”, noting that running gags like these simply wouldn’t work in 2020.
>The interview goes a little further explaining how the characters and jokes were updated in several ways, including Dot being re-imagined as more of a feminine force that now outsmarts her brothers even more than she did in the past. It’s worth noting that while both producers seem very happy with how the Animaniacs look in 2020, the difficult animation process meant that pre-planned episodes featuring events like the 2020 Tokyo Olympics are still featured despite the sporting event being postponed.
https://gamerant.com/animaniacs-hello-nurse-removed/amp/
jesus christ... that wasn't the point of the Hello Nurse, also treating her as if she wasn't smart, or that being a nurse means you are not smart or "non professional" crucial staff member is very disrespectful
I watched the first season, and never wanted to watch the second, what a load of shit, Dot is supposed to be a strong independent women that doesn't fall in a stereotype, yet is a stereotype of actual feminism, they could at least have the balls to make fun of it, but that would be not being trending on modern society.
You guys take these jokes way too personal...
Isn't that how they're meant to be taken?
the whole point of the jokes in the reboot is that they're absurd non-serious issues being joked about, by taking them seriously you act like the kind of person the warner siblings would make fun of
frick off rebootcuck
They don't even know what the punchlines to the jokes were. They see the setup and screencap it for validation that the SJWs are destroying the show.
>look dot said something a feminist would say
>ignore it's subverted by what is said or what happens right after
the joke is usually, dot says something feminist and is immediately ignore or disregarded, it's representation, but also makes fun of that representation it's a win win
Either that or it's something like the shards of glass joke.
>dot says feminist thing in innocent sounding voice
>wakko or someone knocks it down and makes a joke
Kinda agree with this. its just homosexual writers co-opting a popular character in the hopes people will hear their moronic message because no one would give them a second thought otherwise.
Best thing to do is not to cancel Dot, but to use her - shes a character, she can be used to promote any message at all. Hyper-sexualise her, draw her being cute, draw her being raped if you're feeling particularly angry and then circulate that shit. Enjoy!
They only use her for brownie points not to further an agenda. She's preaching to the choir but always with the out of "haha we're not TOOO serious really, it's just jokes".
You though sound like a nutjob desperate for porn.
Good grief, seriously they really don't know the series and why and how it's remembered since then.
>people are reacting to both of these out of context when both were the setup to a punchline making fun of the initial comment.
We're sure getting a lot of "animaniacs was never political" morons here.
Holy shit have a nice day
t.
triggered by the trump episode
That was the only funny one.
Yes.
>literally always the same scapegoat to defend a spiteful reboot
seek medical help shill
I hate how they seem to have made this series just to spite and shit on the original. None of the original writers are back, and they get their work shat on for being "dated". When ir was infinitely more clever than this mean spirited shit.
That sounds more like projection of the idea that this show is insulting you by existing. Yeah they fricked over the original writers. No the show was never actually all that great so it's not worth crying over. The majority of the reboot is on par with the original because it wasn't ever actually that good. It was always this smarmy snarky mess that outside of Pinkie and The Brain was never as funny or charming as it seemed to think it was. The jokes and references the Warners made were always low hanging fruit. The side characters were almost all one-off pop culture gags who got way more appearances than their one-not jokes could carry.
That's the reality of this show. It's hilarious to me that the shit that people get upset over, like legitimately upset, is shit that is consistent between the original and reboot. That's rose colored glasses for you.
You're such a sad waste of oxygen
Both Animaniacs and Tiny Toons were great and consistent with their times.
>takes the show this personally
>is legitimately upset
I don't think you have room to talk here.

'Kay
I gotta know are you just shitposting to get a reaction or do you actually think these are proof the new show is woke SJW shit? Like are you leaving out the full joke because you know it will make people seethe or do you not actually know there's a punchline?
So you're legitimately upset and being intentionally disingenuous about the show to feel validated?
Got it.
That's not the case at all, it's presented more as "Dot is smart and right and her brothers are feminist allies but the world is too dumb for them and they laugh from their ivory water tower about how enlightened they are (they're not)"
No moron, someone in an interview said that. The show itself then didn't actually do that. Stop believing shit people say to make journalists and social media happy and look at the work itself.
You should take your own advice blindo
You should stop trusting shitposters on the internet and actually watch the show dipshit.
>No moron, someone in an interview said that. The show itself then didn't actually do that.
Yeah they did. Calling me a moron doesn't make your blatant lies true. The joke isn't on Dot for being wrong. Dot is presented as in the right, she's presented as the one "who has wit." The joke is meant to be on the type of people that the new writers and showrunners don't like.
>The joke isn't on Dot for being wrong.
It literally is in the show. Make up all the shit you want. You're only parroting other shitposters here and you haven't said anything that wasn't just in that article.
No I'm not and no it isn't you fricking liar. After the First Ladies song her brothers congratulate Dot for doing it, then she makes a smug quip about how women are better than men while dressed as Hillary Clinton. It even ends on a "happy women's history month" card on Hulu's youtube reupload, is that supposed to be part of the joke?
The feminist angle is played completely straight without a hint of irony.
>And here's why that's a good thing.
Guarantee that's their next reply.

Fricking disgusting

>As Swarr puts it, “immediately hello nurse was goodbye nurse”, noting that running gags like these simply wouldn’t work in 2020.
Funny too that, people use that as a thing still....people who probably don't remember the show.
This ain't the golden age of American animation anymore, bruh
Right, it's the second dark age.

https://strawpoll.com/polls/xVg7dK2EzZr
Swar must like girls who are flat waifs.
Wait, ok I thought we were all content with her being referred to as "Hello Nurse" colloquially. If her name actually is Heloise, assuming her nickname is Hello, then the joke becomes a double entendre while they're referring to herself by her real name. Sure it's sexist that they fawn over big boobies and whatnot, but the qualm many many people had was she was robbed of being treated like a person. What is the literal difference between Hello and Minerva, a svelte feminine furry girl who's hounded for her sex appeal who's won the hearts of many SJWs for her... independence, strength, ability to hit people who fawn over her?
I can picture the target audience falling asleep during this song
The target audience is feminists, kids don't give a shit about the animaniacs.
Show me a feminist line in the show that isn't a punchline or the setup for one.
>he went to catch up on the thread and replied to everyone including himself
Go to bed.
No u. Only the first and third posts in your reply are mine.

I think I will go to bed, though. It's getting late.
>The target audience is feminists, kids don't give a shit about the animaniacs.
The target audience is 40 year old starbucks drinking normie lib boomers, which sometimes includes feminists.
The second part is right though
Didn't the reboot only get made because the original was popular with kids on Hulu?
Yes.
The people in this thread are just saying dumb bullshit without thinking. Even the show joked about how it's trying to appeal to kids while also appealing to the adults who knew the original.
Your V-Turbo engine is running a little too high. You should try fighting the Bouma
>to appeal to kids
I can't see how that is done.

Disaster and desolation followed by something new, as is the life cycle.
Dot should expose her panties more.
>Any interest on the upcoming third season?
no
>What's the shows fate anyways with all the totally insaney stuff going on with WB
it keeps going until Hulu decides they don't want to order more episodes
Was there really enough interest in this show for a third season? All I got from the few episodes I watched was just things people said they remembered from the original series but heavily watered down. Not even worth a second season but somehow managed to get three.
Brain dead mundanes who look only for nostalgia validation lap this shit up, so I'm not surprised. They only vaguely remember the original show as it is, so a cheap approximation feels like the real article to them
>read post thinking you were talking about the character Brain at first and had to reread several times
WHAT?!
THE 2ND SEASON AIRED ALREADY!?!?!?!?
why insist on a show that nobody watch or even talk?
I have not watched a single episode of the Wokeamaniacs.
it's canceled.
Whatever, as long as it gives me more Dot porn, I'll be satisfied
I can't stop staring at this image. It's so fricking hot and meaty.
why are republicans like this?
because democrats have become the ones that are puritanically ruining entertainment
I'm not into mindbreak or hypno or anything but for some reason this is hot
why do these threads always have people who didn't watch the reboot in them and then proceeding to complain about it?
I watched every single episode and hated everything about it, I won't bother with the Tiny Toons reboot tho, that one looks somehow worse
The average Cinemaphile thread has greater entertainment value than the Animaniacs reboot.
Helloooo nurse
Did anything good besides coombait characters come out of this show?

Of what?

How?

Based, the shill just got btfo'd
His only comeback is "you're upset"
I wonder how much he's getting paid
the weirdest thing about this show is you morons have this idea like it's a battleground and you have to fight against an army of shills to make sure everyone knows the show is bad.
But that's moronic.
>"you're upset"
Well you clearly are.
If that helps you sleep at night
Hey anon I know you're really proud of yourself for this, but the reason my "only response" was "you're upset" was because "have a nice day" is just admitting you have no argument and are very very upset.
So stay mad homosexual.
Ironic from you
I mean a doctor can diagnose autism a hundred times, that doesn't mean he's wrong.
>actually upset
Calm down it's just a cartoon.
This is just transparent.
>these must be a samegay because that's what I was doing
I meant transparently a troll. Way to out yourself my dude.
The implication that you are not a troll is not something you want to make. Because that would mean you're serious.

Did any thing good happen yet?
It got cancelled

And nothing of value was lost
Exactly
I wish Slappy would walk in on me jerking off my huge wiener and that old squirrel drinks my nut
This show really seemed to boost it's own GT engine you know? Like why are Yakko, Wakko and Dot's faces yellow?
This show needed more core Pinky's antics to go with the Brain right?
The first season neglected Pinky in favor of the Brain, but the second season was actually a lot better about that and had a much better balance.
Yes Julia's first episode was way WAY too EDgY MoM's GoNnA FreAK. People saying shit like "Pinky and the Brain was always that way lol" made me scratch my head so much that I rewatched their entire goddamn original spin-off series AND all the original Animaics Pinky and the Brain shorts for the first time in decades and no it fricking was not, at all, even a little bit. People who remember that shit as being all edgy are remember their own edgy grimdark fanfiction or some clickbait YouTube bullshit instead NOT the actual fricking cartoon, it wasn't fricking edgy or dark and they weren't evil at all, that reboot short just fricked the tone and characters over completely. Her second episode was more in line with something that fit though, but it was still a bit too much in a few places. I hope the last season is better about it.

The Hip Hippos
Honestly, switch Rita and Runt for Mindy and Buttons, then switch Hip Hippos for Katie Kaboom, and that's how it is.
Move Goodfeathers up to somewhat important.
Where is Good Idea, Bad Idea? That's one of the best segments in the whole show
Mr. Skullhead.
I see
I would move Katie Ka-Boom down to "eh" with the Hippos. For the first tier, I agree with the first three, but I actually don't know what to put in the fourth spot. I agree that it needs SOMEthing in there, I think it's more like it needs one of these three to round the series out: Buttons and Mindy, Rita and Runt, OR Goodfeathers. I think ideally those three are in rotation as a kind of fourth hub, if that makes any sense.
All the rest periodically as a sort of fifth tier, support kind of thing makes sense, but I don't think The Flame really fits. It and those few other shorts like the wrapping paper and the trailer feel too Disney. They're not bad they just don't fit or gel with the rest of the show.
I agree for the most part, but Buttons and Mindy is actually pretty underrated in its importance, you need a pure slapstick, Loony Tunes type of segment so the dialogue-heavy nature of the other segments doesn't become cumbersome, and by having Buttons and Mindy as a major segment, its traditional approach to toon humor bleeds into the rest of the show.
>Rita and Runt above literally anything
I'd watch an entire Hip Hippos series before I watch another Rita and Runt short.

This was a real commercial. Yes I know this because Doug Walker talked about it.
Why would there be wrinkles? That's the young version of her.
The video:
Forget the first part of that I know what you meant
any Mega for S2?
This show really helps to rev my engine sometimes you know?
Anecdotal, but I have a few women in my family that were and still are big Animaniacs fans. When I asked them what they thought of the reboot they all thought it wasn't very good. I don't think the feminist angle is even appealing to most women, at this point it's just out-of-touch propaganda inserting itself into a formerly decent cartoon show.
What if the next season is just Slappy trying to attract a young man to be her husband? That'd be pretty funny haha
At this point I just want another patb spinoff. They're consistently the better segments.
