Hello! Welcome to The Day The Warners Escaped, a blog about Animaniacs. I rediscovered this series not long ago and I was happily surprised by how well it aged. I’ll use this blog to say something about that, some of it in reply to two excellent resources — the Hello Nice Warners blog by ‘Legion1979’, and the Animanicast podcast hosted by Joey, Nathan and Kelly. I’ll take a quick look at the Animaniacs tie-in comic, and I’ll offer a few takes on the new reboot.

Animaniacs and associated characters are the copyright of Warner Media. Their use here is on a strictly non-commercial basis for the purposes of review and parody. Sincere thanks to Tom Ruegger and crew for bringing us these iconic characters and their crazy stories, and apologies to Tom Ruegger and crew for what I’m about to do to them.

Now click on to the first review.
