Animaniacs S01E30 Hot, Bothered and Bedeviled/Moon Over Minerva/Skullhead Boneyhands

Each and every week, your hosts revisit an episode of Animaniacs in the order in which they first premiered. They discuss their favorite jokes, gags, and all the cultural references they can find! In the end, each episode is given a “Water Tower Rating.” How many water towers will this episode get? This episode features the Warners facing off against Satan, Minerva Mink’s first cartoon, and a parody of Edward Scissorhands.

“Hot, Bothered and Bedeviled”

• In the first cartoon, the Warners are trying to get to “Six Flags over Flushing” but end up in Hades where they meet Satan. Satan tries in vain to torment the Warners but it all backfires and Hell freezes over!
• Joey, Nathan and Kelly discuss some of their favorite moments and cultural references.
• Tom Ruegger and John P. McCann also responded on twitter to some of controversies over this episode.

Commercial Break: Animaniacs Funko Figures

• Joey and Nathan review the new Funko Animaniacs figures. Are they worth buying?

“Moon Over Minerva”

• Minerva Mink stars in her first cartoon where a nerdy wolf tries to win her affections. She doesn’t like him but loves his alter ego which appears whenever he sees a full moon.
• Your hosts discuss the episode and whether or not it’s appropriate for young audiences. Feel free to send us your thoughts by sending us an email and/or audio message.

“Skullhead Boneyhands”

• Mr. Skullhead returns in his first (and only) cartoon segment paroding the movie “Edward Scissorhands”
• The hosts discuss some of their favorite moments and references to not only Edward Scissorhands and even Bugs Bunny!
