  2. let's play a "game", here is an hypotetical question: Imagine if you are making an animaniacs episode right now chance right now (remember this is an hypotetical question) which celebrity would you choose to spoof, here are the options (you can chose more than one): Britney Spears (!!helloooo Britney!! XD), Robert Pattinson from Twiligh Saga (Dot would say: Helloooo Vampire XD), Christina Aguilera, Daniel Radcliffe, Tobey Maguire, Miley Cyrus, Miranda Cosgrove, Lady Gaga, Bono from U2, Zac Efron, or ¿anyone else in this new spectacle world?

    and now the serious part: ¿why did animaniacs had Batman cameos and no other DC heroes like Superman, wonder woman, green lantern or flash. !thank you, have a nice day!

  3. I believe that is correct. But the really big hair belongs to Jess Harnell and, in green near the back, Richard Stone.

  10. yeah, with her sarcasm and dynamite and anvils, Gaga won't be safe, and there is one thing I don't get about Rita and Runt Characters: I don't get why did production wanted Rita to sing in her episodes. ¿what was the purpose?

  11. Rita was voiced by Bernadette Peters, Broadway and musical theater mega-star, Sondheim's muse and one of the leading and most-beloved singers and song-stylists on the planet. That's why we wanted to hear Rita sing in every episode.

  12. Trying to think of reactions Slappy would have to meeting Gaga.

    "Whoa, I thought I knew every cartoon character on the block! How'd this one escape me?"

    "You remind me....of a very young Fred Jones. He used to wear meat on his head, he was adorable."

  13. (Slappy meeting Lady Gaga)
    "Whoa, and I thought Red Hot was rather liberal. So, Lady is it? Or do you prefer Ms.Gaga? You play anything else besides piano? On second thought, don't answer that. If you do, I'll throw dynamite down your pants, probably wouldn't be the first time either (g' night evry body') ....say where are your pants anyway?"

  14. Wow. The real deal. I just started folowing this blog... I recorded every episode on my old VHS, only to have the tape stolen. It's really nice to see so much here and be reminded of how much I love the Animaniacs.
