Animaniacs

Animaniacs is a series created by Tom Ruegger for Warner Bros. Animation. It originally aired on Fox Kids from September 13, 1993, to November 12, 1994, and then on Kids' WB! from September 9, 1995, to November 14, 1998.
The series aired in reruns on Nickelodeon from September 3, 2001 to March 15, 2005. For some reason, Nickelodeon's broadcasts of the show infamously shortened the theme song to less than half of its original length, with the zoom-in to the Warner Bros. Studio water tower at the beginning replaced by a shot of the show's logo breaking though the Nickelodeon logo, and the variable lines at the end of the song (which always ended in "-aney") all being replaced with "Nickel-eeney", despite the obvious fact that it did not rhyme with the preceding lines of "anima-ney, totally insan-ey".
==Show Description==
*Ensemble cast of off-the-wall Warner Brothers characters, appearing in a wide variety of roles. Mainly staring the Warner Siblings Yakko, Wakko, and Dot, who were created by the WB Studios but found they were just too "zany" to be of any use to the studio. Other popular characters in the series include: Pinky and the Brain, two lab mice bent on world domination. Rita and Runt, a cat and dog team who get into perilous situations every episode but always seem to find time to sing a song, Bobby, Pesto, and Squit, the Goodfeathers, part of a New York City mob of pigeons, who take orders from The Godpigeon and worship Martin Scorsese. Slappy the Squirrel is a late middle-age squirrel. She starred in a series of popular cartoons in the Golden Age but is now retired and looking after her nephew, Skippy Squirrel. Buttons is a watch-dog, charged with watching the mischievous toddler, Mindy. Chicken Boo is a giant chicken trying to integrate into human society. Flavio and Marita are two urbane hippopotami.
