045 - Bologna In Our Slacks: Animaniacs!

Writers Get Animated

It's time for Animaniacs! Chris and Mackenzie finalize their pay for play contracts and sufficiently stuff bologna in their slacks to discuss the Warner Brothers and the Warner Sister! Who is the audience for this show?! How has Animaniacs impacted pop culture (and our personal lives)? Will there ever be a reboot? Could Animaniacs be made now? How old are Yakko, Wakko, and Dot? What's up with Wakko? How “meta” is too “meta?” Links Animaniacs http://bit.ly/2dtOo2U Cartoons that might no longer be appropriate in 2016: Animaniacs http://bit.ly/2dtMIXn A.V.
