Each week, Joey, Nathan and Kelly revisit an episode of Animaniacs, Tiny Toon Adventures, Pinky and the Brain, or Freakazoid! Today the hosts discuss the upcoming reboot of Animaniacs and what fans of the series are looking forward to. They later review issue #18 of the classic Animaniacs comic book showing what happens when the Animaniacs go to France!

Animaniacs Reboot

Are Animaniacs fans excited about the reboot? It looks like many of them are based upon responses to the Animanicast's Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts! However there are some folks out there that are worried that the reboot will not live up to the original, especially without the involvement of Animaniacs creator, Tom Ruegger. Joey, Kelly and Nathan share thoughts from listeners, discuss their expectations of the series and share some possible news-- Is Freakazoid being rebooted or making a cameo on the Animaniacs reboot?

Animaniacs Issue #18

The hosts discuss the eighteenth issue of Animaniacs from 1996. The Warners attempt to get French fries, Slappy deals with a mime, and Minerva Mink plays dress up! Will this episode be sweet like French wine or as stinky as brie cheese? Listen to find out!

Today the hosts discuss episode 6 and 7 of Freakazoid which features Freakazoid's origins in "The Chip" and a Quantum Leap parody "Freakazoid is History."

The Chip Part 1

Otherwise known as the sixth episode of Freakazoid, Nathan takes up the task of trying to explain the whole episode while choking on popcorn. This episode introduces fan favorite characters Armondo Guitierrez and Rody MacStew as well features the first speaking lines of Dexter’s older brother Duncan Douglas.  This is the segment to give us the answer to the question “How did Freakzoid get his powers?”

The Chip Part 2

The first half of the seventh episode features part two of "The Chip." This segments features Freakazoid’s first interaction with Cosgrove, and the audience finds out his motivation on why Freakazoid decided to become a superhero! Plus, there's a reference to Steven Spielberg which Kelly appreciates.

Freakazoid is History

In the closing segment, Freakazoid travels back in time to prevent the Pearl Harbor attack, altering the course of history.  This segment is chock full of references including Quantum Leap, Davy Crockett, Ben-Hur, 2001: A Space Odyssey, Saturday Night Fever, North by Northwest, The Graduate, The Sound of Music, Hello Dolly!, The Defiant Ones, and Steven Spielberg's Jaws.
