Oh yeah
YESSSS

@@andrewsanusi8462 OH YEAHHHH *kool aid voice*
They actually did get green lit for season 3 back last year! Also if I recall i think they said they might bring some if the old characters back slowly with the third season
they would bring back hello nurse? and minerva mink? i hope so
the two characters you want are probably the least likely to return. even in the 90's minerva was pushing it
I'll believe it when I see it because they made the exact same promises at the end of season 1 - they said if it was successful then they'd bring back fan favorite characters in season 2.
@@Dargonhuman I mean, chicken boo got an origin episode.
@@BlakeAtStake I'd give it a good 50/50 on Hello Nurse though, she's a certified genius and apparently a doctor now, if I remember their explanation for her absence correctly, we might expect a redesign but she could be heading home.
Animanicas will honestly be one of my favorite cartoons of all time for it's witty, nostalgic, and hilarious charm.
I read that as Americans
But you’re biased
Conflict of interest, Yakko, conflict of interest...
Same bro
And this is why the old show and the reboot makes all 3 Warner's awesome.
say Yakko Warner can you please end this comment for me please.
"Julia and Brain might have a romantic thing" that's literally his ex-wife.
She looks like a furry OC.
@@j.k.4479 Most female furry characters will look like that tbh. Its all about if they're entertaining.
@@j.k.4479 She loosely resembles Jonathan Brisby from The Secret of NIMH. I'm pretty sure the hairstyle was added to keep Don Bluth off their butts.
“My Ex Wife still misses me. But her aim is getting better! Her aim is getting better!” ~ The Brain, probably

Personally, I think they need to bring Histeria back. It focused on history and it was pretty funny.
Young earth creationists to flat earthers would likely wish it to be a version they prefer to indoctrinate kids with laudable nonsense. I would enjoy Horrible Histories and Histeria to do more.
I thought I was only one that remember Histeria
Lucky Bob all the way! Lol
Oh my God, thank you! Literally no one I ever talk to remembers Histeria!
@@Chamelionroses Bro what? Why are you talking about creationists and flat earthers of all things?
The Benjamin Franklin loving turkeys thing is actually misinformation. It isn't that he loved turkeys as much as he disliked the bald eagle, noting how they are often scavengers and bullies that steal already caught prey from other birds so even the turkey was a better candidate in his eyes to be the national bird and icon of the country.
ur profile pic is rlly cool
Sounds like the bald eagle is the perfect symbol for the country then.
Am I crazy but wasn't their an episode of the Ace Ventura cartoon about that very topic.
@@Elyseon Yeah it really is meta isn't it lol
@@melkhiordarkfell4354 Yep, its the only episode I remember
One of the things that really improved between Season 1 and Season 2 were the songs. So many of them felt like they could have fit right at home in the 1993 original show! Even the voice actors' singing improved between Season 1 and Season 2!
Also, you'll be happy to know that the show is already approved for a 3rd season!
And life, well, life finds a waaaaaaaaay... NARF UP NARF DOWN NARF IT ALL AROUND
Oh, that’s a relief! That cliffhanger where Wakko said “I wonder if I’ll _dream_ this time”, worried the hell out of me!
@@gluttonousmaximus9048 My brain at midnight: "Astronomers claim that video games have been built into every crater/Why not play Asteroids all day and order pizza from an alien waiter?"
"Excuse me, pal/Oh, hi there hun!/It's Benedict! From season one!/Eggs Benedict you say?/Please, Wakko. Keep it in your mouth!"
"At first there was nothingness, then some unknown process/Lead to a great big explosion
The universe grew from a subatomic stew/Of quarks, gluons, plasmas, and bosons/Then gas and dust settled on hot cores of metal/And one of these cores was called Earth/It was covered with goop, a primordial soup/From which all of Earth's life was then birthed"
Gosh! These songs are all such major earworms!
Animaniacs needs to end for real
@@gabriellitewski7988 “Blah, Blah, Blah, Look at me! I hate reboots because my nostalgia makes me think the old or original version is always better!! Even if it’s something like the 2004 Battlestar Galactica, a show transformed from an expensive, but ultimately throwaway bit of harmless camp action into a serious sociopolitical epic that had something to say on every political topic 2004 era America was concerned about. Watch me as I slowly drive everyone of my good television and movie loving friends to lose any and all respect for my opinions on modern entertainment thanks to this overly nostalgic loser attitude as they all pretend to agree with me at work and then just watch whatever continuation or reboot interests them later, not paying my opinions any mind in the _slightest_ !!
I originally did not have high hopes for this series, but it has blown my mind! I love how it’s self-aware, it impressed me! 🙌
Animaniacs was absolutely critical to the way I acted as a kid and still act as an adult, so I had very high hopes for the reboot and I have literally a single complaint and that is that we don't get any Slappy Squirrel
@@ClaireZhasa #justiceforslappy
I was a boy. They were two girls. Can I make it any more obvious? I am TH-cam's ALPHA MALE. Acknowledge it, dear pi
Self-awareness doesn't impress me anymore.
Self-awareness isn't automatically a good thing.
You know the marketing was bad when this is how you found out season two came out
They can't have bad marketing if there is no marketing.
@@joshroehl6098 "I don't remember asking you a damn thing!"
- Mace Windu, Revenge of the Sand
I want Freakazoid to get a reboot, that show is seriously underrated.
I second that
Lol, that would be a childhood dream for Freakazoid to finally come back.
That would be cool, but of course Ed Asner (Cosgrove) passed away in August and I don't know how they're going to handled that situation if they would recast him with a new voice actor or retire the character completely out of respect to Asner, just like what happened in the Simpsons when Phil Hartman was murdered they retired most of his characters from the show.
Hey genius minds think alike my friend
Considering Tiny Toons Looneversity is coming, it seems likely to happen.
Really loved can’t wait till season 3
Rob Paulsen said it's coming out in 2023, and back in 2019 he got the Fall 2020 release date right about season 1 💀💀💀
@@goatmilk1 oh well it is what it is
@@goatmilk1 all I want is for Slappy to return.
Is it weird that a part of me really wanted a Pinky and The Brain spin-off, regardless of whether or not we got a season 3? I mean, the episodes with the Tim Burton-esq supervillain and the one with the time machine causing reality to collapse were just such amazing ideas that I almost wish were stretched into full episodes!
@@goatmilk1 where did he say this
Really hoping you'll tackle Arcane at some point, its drop-dead gorgeous and the story is really, really, really good.
Yes, it also shouldn't be overlooked for giving an example of how Animated shows can have episodes that are 40+ minutes.
Anyone who said the new Animaniacs are too topical and meta either didn't watch the original show or their mush kid brains didn't absorb the jokes back then.
Animaniacs has always been like this.
Always
On the surface-that’s true-I think people have a different problem with the show that they don’t
know how to explain.
It’s not the jokes-it’s the tone of the jokes that are completely off. Here they are more pointed and even outright cynical in places when the original was always in good fun and spirits and poked at both sides of the aisle-while in the reboot it’s clearly leaning towards one side of the aisle.
Sometimes they are even outright bad at tackling certain topics like the very unsubtle gun rights episodes which is outright propaganda. Which is sad cause that beautiful anime sequence gets paired with the worst episode of the reboot….
And with using more biting and divisive words that are outright sexist gendered terms like mansplaining and manspreading-it comes off as divisive rather than bringing everyone in for a good laugh at everyone’s expense like in the original….
i would be surprised if a kid got the finger prints joke
Same, I also thought the reboot was way more political … then I rewatched a few episodes of the original and had the “oh.. it’s because I was nine” moment
@@CurtyTails have you considered that, that's the case because it reflects the current times we live in? We are more political now, in general, than back then, not only that but now you have already formed opinions, you have already took a side so it's no longer funny. An example would be, it's funny to look from the outside at two people fighting but not so much if you're the one taking the punches. As a kid you didn't care for either and looking back, those problems are still not YOUR problems but the problems of time frame it was made in.
Franklin being an idea thief is a common joke amongst historians, I think. Or maybe that's A.G Bell. I get those two confused smtms.
No it's more Thomas Edison's thing since he would usually snipe patents and ideas from other people.
I found season 2 to be definitely more interesting than season 1, i mean season 1 was good too but S2 had more "unique" qualities.
That's great I'm looking forward to seeing it then 👀 💙💜🖐
As someone who had never watched the original Animaniacs, I decided to binge the entire original series back when I heard about the reboot coming out, and I'm PROUD to be a fan.
The music was great as well. Felt very og Animanics like something that would have come out of the original show
Shirley Walker would be proud!
Franklin and Edison both stole a bunch of their 'inventions', yes.
They don't even shy away from doing the same thing in a slightly different way. They're self-aware enough too to know it's been 20 years and it's nice, and it doesn't feel cheap coming from the animaniacs - maybe the only characters who can pull that meta off, because they were built from the ground up for the meta.
Do you have any sources on Franklin, because I really want to enjoy that episode, but I need to know it was historically accurate to do it.
@@madestmadhatter yup you can look it up I believe Franklin stole the whole “electricity” thing from a slave and also his other inventions he had and did some shitty things to them and Edison stole his idea from “Nikola Tesla”
Einstein also stole a lot of ideas as a patent clerk. It is why he "fled" Germany after stealing state secrets.
The only complaint I have with the animation is lack of lighting and shading, they look very flat and the lighting/shading affects feels like the missing puzzle piece to this animation, already it’s got smooth animation and good character designs, it’s just missing that lighting.
Seriously, even the original had good lighting.
This is literally how I found out this has a second season
I found articles back in mid october about the season 2 announcement
It is still ANIMANY, TOTALLY INSANY🎵
It is but it's also hululy fundy
I’ve seen the first three episodes so far, then got busy with school
Me too sometimes I can't watch the series that my friends recommend to me because I'm busy with school ✏️ 🎓 🍎. Also, this is examens period and I NEED to study math ✖️ I'm so bad at it 😅🤣🤣🤣
Its so cool knowing people who work on these shows! Two of my professors worked on things like Inside Job and Centaur World.
oh wow! I like both of those shows what part did they work on?
@@skullcandy14785 I believe they did some layout designs
Well at least It's still confirmed that the original CEO; Thaddeus Plotz Is still alive and not completely dead or decided to retire aware of The Warners' comeback but It would be Interesting If Nora trapped him ti begin with and the twist villain during the Warners' Absent was either Buddy or King Salazar while Nora just a pawn of there game.
I honesty doubt there still gonna bring back the original cast but don't mind Slappy, Rita And Rutn, and even Minerva but toned down or at least be her own character then just eye candy.
minerva wasn't only eye candy, just like hello nurse wasn't eye cande either... minerva most of the time played the femfataly
I love Pinky and the Brain I'm so happy they brought it back 🐭for a new generation to enjoy
8:50 The studio who animated the opening of Thundercats, Pacific Animation Corporation was Japanese (the show as a whole was co-produced by them and Rankin Bass). They went on to bought by Disney and were known as Walt Disney Animation Japan but they were wasted on Disney direct to video releases, shut down and the remaining staff shifted into DisneyToon where their talents _continued_ to be wasted on Disney direct to video releases. Also the 80s Cats cold opening was animated by a South Korean studio, Tiger Animation.
I don't care if it's topical... As long as it's funny. That's the main thing.
True, even the original was topical tho, people forget that.
@@KironX1 The original was actually witty while being topical. The new series basically went “hurr durr, he’s orange!” Like five times.
@@dakotasan8719 oh, that’s a shame :/
"I don't care if it's topical... As long as it's funny."
That's what I say when I buy my skin creams at the health store.
@@dakotasan8719
And the original made one-too many jokes about the Clinton's,yet it's still beloved for being funny and creative. So them poking fun of Trump isn't anything low
I liked it a lot better than the first season.
Same here! Better songs, sillier etc
5:33 You don’t remember the joke about “fingering prince” in the original series? They always hid salacious adult jokes in the show
I really like how they went all over the place with historical references. We had Nero (okay, he was just Trump), the Bayeux Tapestry, King John and the Magna Charta, Oliver Twist (with a 19th century version of Yakko's World), Christopher Colombus, Benjamin Franklin, and a song about the complete history of Earth.
That Christopher Columbus segment felt like it was something they should have tackled _DECADES_ ago! Felt like it was such a long time coming! He was a tyrant and a serial bumbler and the montage of him just crashing his boats was just “mwah, *Chef’s kiss!*
The Animaniacs reboot continues to impress me time and time again!! This show means a lot to me, and I’m so happy that the reboot still has the same feel as the original. The ideas are fresh and exciting, and the jokes are just as good as ever
Me and my sisters are thinking of binging Animaniacs Season 2 and seeing how it is! I heard it was good so👀👀👀
Tell me when you and your sister finished watching season 2! 👀💙
the patb bits will always be my favorite. i love their dynamic this season wayy more than season 1. it feels a little more like the original if that makes sense
I think they tamed the first season down for ratings or safety reasons. There’s really no other explanation I can think of why it was so “off” compared to the original and season 2
I loved it though! Especially the songs and the parodies. My favorite ones were the dictators dinner for schmucks parody and the bit where the animator just messes with yakko within the animation program
Pinky and the Brain is the BEEEEEEG highlight of the reboot! EVERYTHING they do is surreal and on-character.
Cannot wait for season 3! I'm just interested in where Pinky and Brain's relationship is gonna go from here
"NARF" at the end was the chef's kiss.
I love that Yakko got an animator vs animation episode😂
I just got around to finishing watching this, and my favorite line as to be when Brain and Pinky are on the super villian island. Brain is like "Looks like I'm not just playing with myself" Pinky delivering Good Night everybody was a great joke, since Rob voices both Yakko and Pinky.
I miss the other characters the show used to have, like Chicken Boo, Slappy Squirrel, Runt and Rita, the Goodfeathers, Hello Nurse, etc. Almost none of them have shown up, and the ones that have are cameos. I was especially hoping Minerva Mink would come back since she was the least utilized character in the original series and I was hoping the modern entertainment climate could allow for her in ways the 90's couldn't.
Hey Saberspark this reboot got me hooked on Animaniacs!
I really look forward to getting both seasons of the reboot (and the original if I can find them) on DVD
What I love about the reboot is that it doesn’t change that much from the original; it stayed as fun and witty as it always was. The reboot essentially just modernized the series.
One of my favorite segments of the original was the Einstein one. The Ben Franklin segment in this series feels like its own version of the Einstein one, which is really neat
I like the episode where Yakko is getting messed with by the animator since it references one of my favorite daffy duck shorts
Thank you thank you thank you THANK YOU SaberSpark!!! I LOVE Animaniacs! I grew up with it and its honestly a big influence on me wanting to become an animator! And Most of the reviews I've seen are either blinded by nostalgia or blinded by hate because it ISN'T the original! I love your videos and I'm so glad that you talk about all the differences and the pros and cons of it all! (I also really love seeing you talk about a show so dear to my heart)
I didn't know that they had season 2 up. Thanks for telling us.
Season 3 was confirmed back when Season 1 got released, so it seems Hulu is fairly confident in the series despite the lack of advertising for this season
I thought season 2 was an improvement on season 1 👍
ive been stuck in the animaniacs fandom ever since the first season came out, so its really funny to me to see people being like “oh shoot the second season is out?” while me and me friends have been literally marking the days on our calendar since april 😂
I love your videos sooooo much! 😄 I love your content and your voice is so warming. I always watch your videos while I'm making bracelets or doing something else. Thank you for making such quality, funny and great content.🤗❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I found it nuts for one of the the theme song variations, they made a joke on inertial reference frames. Had to rewind that one to make sure I heard it right
It's awesome to hear that you like this show!
It looked good and now I know it IS good!
It's kind of annoying that they put it on Hulu, since we don't have that here.
Your not missing too much as Hulu’s cheap option and expensive options both play constant ads. Dev is going to use beds in the end if you chose the expensive option though.
@@mattsmocs3281 those lucky bastards get to sleep on comfortable beds
@@gumbo34 a very comfortable sleep, a victorious one in fact
That thumbnail tho
Hadn't watched it buuuuut, thanks to your review I'm gonna check it out. Good lookin out Saber Spark!!!
I hear ya mate I've been able to get in touch with so many VA's now it's been awesome
It was a slight improvement of S1 but i hop s3 will bring back classic characters, and will have thier own segments back too.
As someone who really likes Animaniacs, I felt like this season was a lot more close to the feel of the original show. I wasn't that much of a fan of season 1, but this season was a huge improvement in my eyes. Also those mice are gay.
lmao yea. i don't mean this in a rude way but im surprised he thinks Julia and Brain might become a romantic thing when... well honestly there was so much gay stuff with Pinky and Brain this season i don't think i can sum it up with without this comment being a few paragraphs long
omg hi pebble soooo true
I am living for how often they have Pinky in drag. It's amazing.
@@electrahart Omg hi hartley bestie
Season two was certainly a banger I love that Yakko got more songs cause in season one they sometimes teased us about it except for the rap battle of course that was bad ass and I love the episode when they gave him an episode where the artist is messing with the favorite lovable character like they did with bugs and daffy but except it had a twist where Yakko and the artist had a truce and became friends that was great
I ended up watching the Season in One Day without realizing, Hope to See a New Season Soon.
Ooo I need a new bed, thank you for getting this sponsor 👀
I loved the hommage to Yakko's World in one of the episodes
Unexpected but happy to see this.
6:47 - 6:52
They better do a parody of *Kaguya-sama: Love is War* with these characters.
Loved season 2. They are really doing the series justice.
I like Julia she is like a crazy smart version of Pinky.
I hope the other classic characters return next season or season 4.
The humans look terrifying
But I love the Pinkie and the Brain skits!
Just imagine if Elmyra appears in Season 3, and chases the Warners around Los Angeles
The animation is smooth at times
Yoo, I did the same thing vis a vie watching the original series while watching the new series. I don't think any other reboot I've seen captures the spirit of the original so perfectly. To me, this new series is exemplary of what a reboot should be.
I hope season 3 takes the great parts of both seasons and does soemthing truly incredible
Fun fact: I grew up in Homewood, Illinois, which is where the original animation studio for Animaniacs was located and I met at a local comic book shop Doug Rice who did some animation for the show.
That thumbnail tho lol
noice ! a new season!
9:28 I mean if Solar Opposites could get away with a direct reference to Space Jam in the Season 1 finale in spite of being a Fox show at the time on a Disney streaming service...
I didn’t realize a second season came out on Nov. 5 in till this video was put out
Wow!
I don't know if Saberspark ever did it but I kinda wanna see him react/review to student's animations like Gobelins or just content creators' works regardless of background.
i'd love to see him talk about "The Reward" and Tales of Alethrion.
@@theswampus670 OMG yes that series !!!!
Great review.
I saw several trailers for the first season and had no idea about the 2nd
Hey chat have an awesome week
Hi saberspark can't wait for the reanimated Joshua and the promised land you and your crew are incredible I know it will be great
Feels like the creative talent behind this show really wanted to just do a Pinky and the Brain reboot but WB and Spielberg insisted on the Warners coming along too
Yeah. I like the Warners but I got into the original Animaniacs in middle school and pretty much just watched it for Pinky and The Brain. They are definitely my favorite part of the reboot and in a way, I don’t really want some of the old characters to come back because it could shorten or even eliminate them in some episodes.
YES
Mostly what i love about the reboot is the improved humor and parodies
Definitely want to check it out lol
I can’t believe it’s already been a year since the revival started
This sure was a pretty cool review
1:09 Because Hulu is owned by Disney and is basically their new Touchstone/Buena Vista (that honor goes to STAR in Europe and Canada). Deadpool 3 might be part of the MCU but don't expect Deadpool 3 on Disney+ because it will be R-rated. Same with the upcoming Blade reboot.
@WiiManElite Black Panther is getting a sequel in spite of bombing in China, which is the only market that actually matters to Disney.
Think about that for a second.
Cartoon reboots that are actually good are very underrated and not talked about, I recommend you do a video on the good reboots that are faithful to the original and enjoyed by loyal viewers... if there are any...
The Ducktales reboot??
I actually had no idea the season 2 was out until i saw the thumbnail of this video.
Does anyone remember "Science Court"? It had the same characters from the show "Home Movies" animated using good Ol' Squiggle Vision.
Can always trust saber to leave a fair review on stuff! I do feel like the trump emperor episode maaaaaybe shouldn't have been the first one of the season lmao (first impressions you know!)
Oh I would love an episode on Hit Monkey on Hulu. I personally loved it. I may be bias because I've loved him since the comics.
Didn't even know season 2 was out. Sweet
Season 3 is green lit. It's in production.
I really liked both the new seasons, the show seemed in perfect forum with how it was back when I watched the old ones episodes when I was a kid. I don't think it will get a 3rd season but one can hope.
They announced season 3 this February...
@@TerrorOfTalos Well thank you for the info
Oh I had no idea there was a second season either... This is the first I'm hearing about it. 😱
animaniacs reboot: a reboot done right in many ways while adapting to modern audience
