I’m gonna explain how I feel about Pinky and The Brain.

...Well, this is awkward. I never watched their segments.

But I was planning on watching three and two Warner shorts before the reboot. So maybe I can compare them and get into it.

I did see some songs and scenes. I liked them. I saw the ending to the Christmas one and Pinky you are a wonderful mouse.

And I saw a bit of Pinky, Elmyra, and The Brain. I like Elmyra, so it didn’t bother me.

But for now...

Quotes I like:

“Gee Brain, what are we gonna do tonight?”

“Guess.”

“The same thing we do every night Pinky - try to take over the world!”

“Are you pondering what I’m pondering?”

“I think so Brain, but if they called them sad meals kids wouldn’t buy them.”

“I’d say puberty was inordinately kind to you.”

“Heavens, they’re multiplying.” (I think)

“Remember something Pinky, never breed.” (I think)

“I’ll try.”

Screenshot time. Feel free to add more.

Standard pic.

It honestly doesn’t surprise me that Brain would look so confident and sure of himself while dressed up as a baby in the Animaniacs promo video since one of his schemes in Pinky and the Brain involved becoming a child star so he could obtain the money needed to fund one of his plans for world domination.

And since I’m on the subject, Whatever Happened to Baby Brain is such an enjoyable episode because it has a lot of fun with its premise, poking fun at 1930s Hollywood and the culture surrounding the film industry, and what makes the scheme work is that Brain is just totally fine with dressing up like a cute little girl. There’s never a moment where he feels awkward or uncomfortable in the situation. In fact, he treats the idea of achieving adorableness and cuteness as if it was a hard science and even enjoys aspects of it. 

“Golden curls, perfectly calibrated to...well actually, I just sort of like them.”

And when the producer mentions to Brain that he needs a parent to sign the contract for the movie deal, Brain decides to tell him that Pinky is his mother, and as a result, Pinky fully commits to the role of Brain’s nurturing and overly concerned mother.

I’m gonna explain how I feel about Wakko Warner.

So back to Wakko’s Wish, he was middle-ground. I was at the age where “everyone is different” and “everyone comes in all shapes and sizes” was prevalent in putting in my head. So when I first heard his accent, I was like “Oh.” But he wasn’t bad. I liked him. (He was the main character so it would’ve been bad if I didn’t.) I paid attention to him and Dot a lot. I remember I was annoyed at so many characters appearing and so many songs. So I just followed the Warners since they were either the first I saw or they were the main characters.

I guess the term would be neutral. Paid attention when he was the focus, whereas Yakko I was annoyed. I did notice the trope it played into. One character is leader, one is weird/different, and one is relative to leader in some way (although cute is unique). So I was used to Wakko-type characters...Ed from Ed, Edd, n Eddy for example. They are different, but the trope they’re based off of is the same.

As for fandom...he would be second favorite. Everyone looooved Potty Emergency. My guess would be for how unique that short is. People also like funny characters - visually.

And then there were some people who wrote him off whether it was because he’s the least intelligent or they favored Yakko/had crush on Yakko.

I connect more with Wakko and Dot. For this post, I’ll speak about Wakko. I like his mannerism. He’s the nicest and polite. Doesn’t speak much. Actions are louder than words. I’m not a social person, so it’s nice to see a non-talkative character still a positive in the highlight.

Their voices aren’t a factor if I like a character or not. I like all the voices.

He’s also “weird.” I remember when being “weird” was a bad thing. Really bad. That’s another reason why I like him. He’s tolerated, but he’s still loved.

Appearance...I guess his hat makes him less plain. (lol) He looks like Yakko except his head is rounder and had hair tufts. (But now Yakko has it.) Yakko looks like a bean lol. I thought they were bugs the first time I saw them.

I don’t know but shirt with no pants looks worse than fully naked in toons lol. I guess cause it seems like it’s missing something. Silly boy.

(Although, his later portrayal in Family...eeehhhh)

I guess I can talk about favoritism. Yakko, Wakko, and Dot all love each other equally. But it’s a popular theory that Yakko and Dot love each other more. They may have more in common, but that doesn’t equate love. Let me see if I can justify it...I remember they say he has middle kid syndrome (weird/non-intelligent), Yakko and Dot tend to make fun of him more because of it. (Yakko smacking Wakko’s head; “I’m confused.” “What else is new?” Then Dot laughs.) Yakko and Dot fight with each other the most, though. Apparently there are multiple fics. But I can only think of a few instances in fics and there was one fic in particular that dealt with it.

The most fanfic/fanart is Yakko & Wakko & Dot or just Yakko & Dot. There’s some Yakko & Wakko but Wakko & Dot is rare.

So I can see it, but it’s not true.

For the reboot, I’ll have to see it.

Quotes I like:

“Turn in to what?” Various instances

“I’d like forty-two pizzas, six with no crust.”

“Look! It’s a big fat Fanny!”

When I watch more episodes, I’ll add more this post.

Screenshot time. Feel free to add more.

Hehe.

I need to find the other one where his face is like this but he’s standing up and his right hand is pointing down.

Uhh...

Cutie~
