Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today your hosts discuss episode 51 from the third season of Pinky and the Brain featuring the segments, "Brainie the Poo" and "The Melancholy Brain." How many water towers will this episode receive?

The Megalomaniacal Adventures of Brainie the Poo

In this parody of "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh," Brainie and Pinklet are in search of some honey for their latest plan to replace all the artificial sweeteners in the world with real sugar. They just need to find a way to get into the honey tree which is protected by angry bees. Along the way they run into Christopher (Walken), "Jagger," "Algore" and even a tiny Bea Arthur. This episode has a lot of funny jokes and some pretty obscure references! It also features John Rhys Davies as the narrator!

The Melancholy Brain

Pinky and the Brain want to sew the seeds of discord to take over Denmark and eventually all of Scandinavia! The Brain drives Hamlet mad, convinces the King that Hamlet is trying to take over the throne, and even tries to talk the Queen into becoming suspicious of her husband and Hamlet! It all leads up to a sword fight, a dramatic death scene, and a twist ending! This cartoon also features Carey Elwes, Clive Revill and Olivia Hussey lending their voices to the Shakespearean characters.

Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today, your hosts talk about another episode of Tiny Toon Adventures that focuses on comedy and toilets!

Henny Youngman Day

The legendary comedian Henny Youngman voices a giant chicken named "Henny Youngman" who substitute teaches for Daffy Duck. Youngman tells jokes to the students who quickly tire of his jokes. What will the hosts of the Animanicast think of this classic comedy?

Stand-Up and Deliver

Babs is going to perform her comedy at the local comedy club! Unfortunately Robin Killems opens for her and she is completely intimidated and can't compete with his act. Luckily Robin rescues Babs and her act is a success. The hosts discuss the connections Sherri Stoner and Maurice LaMarche have with comedy clubs and how this cartoon is a nice salute to Robin Williams.

The Potty Years

Plucky remembers when he was potty trained. Baby Plucky loved to flush the potty and quickly tries to flush everything he can see! This hilarious and cute story is actually based upon a real event in Tom Ruegger's life. His youngest son, Cody, loved flushing the toilet as well and ended up flooding their hotel room! A clip from episode 68a is played when the Animanicast interviewed Nathan, Luke, and Cody Ruegger about their experiences working on Animaniacs. You can listen to it here.

Lame Joke

Buster has a joke that he loves to tell. Unfortunately his friends hate it. The lame joke is personified as a lame clown who collapses and is taken to the hospital. Will Buster be able to save his lame joke and make anybody laugh?

Water Tower Rating

What will the hosts think of this episode and "The Potty Years?"

Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today Joey and Nathan talk about the comic series of Animaniacs issue 15 which features many of the second bananas in Animaniacs. First, the Warners get plastic surgery in "A Change of Face," then Rita and Runt are chased around by "Mace Ventura," the Goodfeathers try to get the Godpigeon a "Cannoli or Nothing," and finally Minerva shows everyone that she is a "Shopping Beauty." What will Nathan and Joey think about today's comic? Listen and find out!

A Change of Face

The Warners give their secret away for how they stay so young. They have plastic surgery! Unfortunately Wakko takes it too far and gets "A Change of Face" when he comes out looking like Michael Jackson!

Mace Ventura: Pet Hunter

Rita and Runt are back! But unfortunately Rita can't sing because it's a comic book. To make things worse they're being chased around by Mace Ventura who wants to kill and stuff the two for an old woman's collection!

Cannoli or Nothing

The Goodfeathers need to get the last cannoli to the Godpigeon. Unfortunately Frank Pigeonatra also wants it! The Goodfeathers have to get the cannoli without offending their favorite singer!

Shopping Beauty

Minerva is cursed. She has a credit account with 5 months, zero percent interest on her purchases. She goes throughout the mall looking for a prince to save her. Unfortunately none of the "princes" she meets are up to her liking.

What do you think?
