We were an innocent bunch back in the 1990s. We loved Animaniacs for the wacky antics, silly faces and weird characters that dropped by each week.
But there were loads of gags that went over our heads, too, that we laughed at anyway because they sounded like they should be funny. Plus, for some reason our older siblings and parents were spitting their tea out whenever Yakko shouted "Goodnight everybody!"
Here are just a small collection of the many times Animaniacs somehow got away with seriously adult moments:
1. IN EVERY SINGLE INTRO...
Hmm…
2. TOO SOON?
What to Read Next
We didn't know who Prince was.
3. MADONNA GETS NAUGHTY
Who's Madonna? She must be really good at games.
4. CONJUGATING IN THE CLASSROOM
"Conjugal: adj, relating to marriage or the relationship between a married couple."
5. CLASSIC BOOB GAG
6. HELLO NURSE!
Dear lord, we hope those are their hearts about to burst through their clothes.
7. SAUCY SQUIRREL
Where? Like, the cupboard under the sink?
8. UNLESS YOU GOT BUNS HUN
That was an actual twerk.
9. CLASSIC KNOB GAG
WHOAH!
10. THIS WHOLE SEQUENCE
… In the future, foot fetishists would look back and wonder where it all began for them.
11. GIVE HIM THE BIRD
Do these "fox sensers" (as we heard it) have a thing against birds? Makes sense if they're foxes.
12. MORE BOOB GAGS
We totally thought this was just about ca-ca.
13. A ROMP IN THE WOODS
*Splutters*
