If you’re a ’90s kid, anytime you weren’t busy playing with Pogs or Pokèmon, you were likely glued to the tube watching Steven Spielberg’s greatest contribution to popular culture: Animaniacs. The old tube is now countless, but there’s still one place online to get your fix of the Warner Brothers and their sister, Dot.
The series which followed Yakko, Wacko, and Dot was not just a character study of the unofficial chaos agents who get into trouble on the Warner movie lot. There’s also a series of hilarious and occasionally heartfelt vignettes featuring classic side characters like Slappy Squirrel, Hello Nurse, and of course, Pinky and the Brain. And rejoice ’90s kids: the reboot is finally on the horizon, coming in late November.
Here’s everything you need to know to stream Animaniacs.

Animaniacs Review
What the critics are saying:
- “As cute as they are funny, even when they’re educating us, and we still can’t believe they got that fingerprints joke past the censors.” –Empire Magazine
- “It was Animaniacs that really hoisted the torch high for madcap, sketch-based cartoons that appeal to kids and adults. It was an attempt to make new Looney Tunes with new characters that were wholly original.” –Genevieve Koski, AV Club
