Animaniacs (2020) News & Discussion Thread

[Red Arrow]

Animaniacs seems like a really big cartoon. Does anyone know on which channels this will air outside the USA and Japan?

Disney+? Netflix? Boomerang?

I dunno, unlike the other shows, this Animaniscs reboot is being MADE for Hulu, and Hulu is fitting the bill for its production. Hulu should be able to keep that show on the platform.

I don't know... they could always just move to the Boomerang streaming service. I know AT&T is planning a streaming service, but many of the animated shows they own through WarnerMedia are already on Boomerang and the DC streaming service. Plus, the Boomerang service would probably be a good home to stream the original "Animaniacs" and "Tiny Toon Adventures." I mean, they already have "Taz-Mania," "Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries" and "Scooby-Doo in Arabian Nights," so why not?

I'm pretty sure Hulu currently has both shows...

Yes, but I heard AT&T plans to pull all the Warner-owned stuff from the streaming services they don't own, including Hulu, which is now wholly owned by Disney.

Hulu, which is now wholly owned by Disney.

NBCUniversal still holds a stake in Hulu until 2024.

What about Young Justice? The original plan was to put the show on Netflix before WB decided to place it on DC Universe instead. Did Netflix help pay for its revival?

If so, then I guess WB can just yank away properties whenever they please.

 

[Erased Paper]

Probably. But it's also probably not getting a second season. At least not on Hulu.

It was actually a two season order (whatever that means).

‘Animaniacs’ Reboot Lands Two-Season Straight-to-Series Order at Hulu

"Animaniacs" is coming to Hulu, Variety has learned.

[Mandouga]

Okay, let me just say that if this (comeback?) season ends up being the only one, they are going to have a LOT of egg on their faces...

Really, this is just overconfidence, IMO (at least in this case).

What are some actors you want to lend their voices to the show?

I personally would not mind Thomas Haden Church.

Grant Gustin (The Flash) may be interesting...

something i noticed from the posters
it seems they will be a bit diferent compared to the original series i mean the warners annoy someone in the same way and in the 2020 animaniacs the warners annoy someone in a diferent way
it seems yakko will be more mischievious,wakko is the same and dot has curious personality youll see the diferencies compsring the two images (original series and storyboard 2020 animaniacs)

 

[Mandouga]

Yeah, let's not jump to any conclusions (yet). It may just be one part of it. They may be exactly the same...

i think it will be the same but diferent at the same time in terms of personality(like jess harnell(wakko voice actor) said it "it would be better and funnier than the original series")

 

[GlassCake]

Paul Rugg will not return to write for Animaniacs and he explains why he had to decline.

I respect his decision though

 

[SweetShop209]

He's definitely quite classy and respectful.

 

[Mandouga]

So his answer is basically summed up as "been there, done that". Although, he more or less says that he might (repeat: "might") be willing to do a Freakazoid! reboot.

On the other hand, what about the other writers, such as Sherry Stoner (voice of Slappy Squirrel, and writer on many of the original show's segments), for instance?
