A live-action/animated Pinky and the Brain movie was once pitched by Russell Calabrese and Kirk Tingblad; where the mice become human (still Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche) to take over the world. When Pinky is shot, Brain chooses to save him over the plan, reverting to mice.

In "This Pun For Hire" Steven Spielberg, Jeffrey Katzenberg and David Geffen are referred to as "The stuff that DreamWorks are made of." (referencing The Maltese Falcon and DreamWorks) After the Quibi incident, the Warners would likely regard Katzenberg in a less favorable light.

RUMOR: New Animaniacs Funko Pops may be releasing soon. These will be the first Animaniacs Pops to be released since 2016. Unclear if the Warners, Pinky and the Brain are re-releases or new variants. Slappy is a new-addition to the line. Via TheScarletJoker

The banner art for Pinky and the Brain has mysteriously updated... on Hulu? The series left the channel in 2023, with the other 1990-1999 WBA/Amblin productions. The series page on Hulu remains inactive, but the updated banner art raises some questions.

Animaniacs was represented in MultiVersus through stages and references. One stage was the Water Tower on the WB studio lot, and the other was a planned ACME Labs map. No playable Animaniacs characters were ever added to the game, ultimately just represented by cameos.

I found this model of BrainDude & Pinkasaur from the Pinky & the Brain ep, Brain Drained, while I was scrolling through my gallery. If I can get the damned printer to work I'm gonna finally ink this thing!

Character models of Pinky and the Brain from the episode "Brain Drained", where the two are re-imagined as ultra cool 1980s superheroes. Pinky is an armored dinosaur playing a 'flying V' guitar while Brain is a ripped, mohawked surfer on a flying surfboard

Multiple scripts for episodes of Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain have been unethically used to train AI programs. Ironically, one of those episodes is "A Legendary Tail" which makes fun of the concept of computer-generated writings. Source: www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

In "Hooked on a Ceiling," Michelangelo is characterized as a caricature of actor Kirk Douglas, being voiced by Maurice LaMarche. He has also repurposed the impression for other characters, most notably the villainous Father in Cartoon Network's Codename: Kids Next Door.
