That song is doing some heavy lifting.

I kinda love love perfectly honest the theme is.


Aelric - 2010-09-07

Blah, I mean I love how honest it is. Christ, I wish my brain would evolve some typing skill.

Someone at the network decided they needed to attract more female viewers. This was their solution. Really.

Practically everyone on the show's production team hated this change. The only reason to watch this show was that at least once an episode there would be a joke which was a thinly-veiled shot at the network higher-ups.

How do you know this?


Xenocide - 2010-09-06

My beard needs worthless cartoon trivia to live.


snothouse - 2010-09-06

Wiki, yo.


Tuan Jim - 2010-09-07

Okay I looked this up and the voice actress for Elmyra is Cree Summer. She was in A Different World--the Cosby Show spin-off, and she also did the voice of Penny on Inspector Gadget.

N.B. Lisa Bonet from A different World had a baby with Lenny Kravitz.


Tuan Jim - 2010-09-07

"On July 23, 2007, Bonet gave birth to her second child, Lola Iolani Momoa. This is the first of two children with Jason Momoa, an actor noted for his roles in the television shows Baywatch and Stargate Atlantis. On December 15, 2008, Bonet and Momoa had a son, Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa."

Wow. I don't think his parents are rich enough for a name like "Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha Momoa".

Cringe inducing.

Even as the target audience I thought this was crap.

Making PoeTV members feel old ITT.


RocketBlender - 2010-09-07

Was this an actual show, or was this one of those 'script mash ups' Animeniacs occasionally did?

When did this air, and how long did it last? I used to watch Pinky and The Brain and Freakazoid every saturday morning, I'm surprised I never heard of this until now.

Stars for incredible amounts of honesty.


garcet71283 - 2010-09-07

It ran 13 episodes.

Apparently, everyone involved felt it was crap and Spielberg's animation studio closed up until 2007...

Somehow, this still managed to win a ton of awards though...


Aelric - 2010-09-07

The awards were likely riding the coat tales of the previous seasons when it was just Pinky and the Brain. I mean, right? It just won due the old work and happened to change it's name, right? I mean, come on, I can't live in a world where this wins anything besides a bullet. Guys?...guys?


BHWW - 2010-09-07

Forcing the Elmyra character into this show only heightend how awful and poorly concieved the average Tiny Toons character was.


CharlesSmith - 2010-09-07

Isn't Elmyra a Tiny Toon? She was from Animaniacs? I thought I remembered most of this stuff.


fluffy - 2010-09-07

You are correct, she is from Tiny Toons, while Pinky and the Brain were Animaniacs. See the ultra-beardy discussion above.

Personally I never even knew this existed until I saw this in the hopper, and then I quickly learned about it from the same places everyone else here did (i.e. Wikipedia).


CharlesSmith - 2010-09-07

I thought so. I also remember Mindy and the Brain, but Mindy was for sure an Animaniac.

"One is a baby the other's... the Brain!"

The only good thing to come out of these Pinky and the Brain mash-ups was the songs, and usually only for one line.

Network executives: Ruining everything ever since the dawn of time.


themilkshark - 2010-09-07

Everything about this show was bad. I watched it when it aired, and made sure the ratings dropped after I saw one episode. As a fan of both Tiny Toons and Animaniacs, this show was no good.


twinkieafternoon - 2010-09-07

Now Pinky and the Brain
Share a new domain.
It's what the network wants;
Why bother to complain?


The Mothership - 2012-09-03

I deeply resent this.
