"Animaniacs (2020)" Series Talkback Thread (Spoilers)

I don't think it was intended to be the last episode though. The original went out on its own terms. The Hulu one was canceled.

IIRC, one of the show's crew members said they weren't even informed this would be the last season until well into production, so the meteor gag was basically tacked on at the last minute (and apparently they also wanted to put the Hulu logo on the meteor but were prevented from doing that).

So the crew's idea was to take a bad situation (that is, getting cancelled) and make it WORSE (that is, have the characters hit by a meteor)? Great idea, guys.

At least if it had just ended without that part it would've been an innocuous finale, instead of... THAT.

That is a pretty literal interpretation of that. They're cartoons. They get hit with a meteor, five seconds later Dot will be all "C'mon, guys, walk it off."

The Warners didn't just literally die. It's weird people think they did.

Dying or not, it still doesn't change the fact that the ending sucks compared to the first series.
