The show got a reboot in 2020 and it premiered on Hulu however it was meant to run for 2 seasons. So, this brings us to the most searched question on the web; when will Animaniacs Season 2 release?

Plot

The showrunners have been very secretive about plot details so we can’t say anything definite about the upcoming season. But as it is an anthological series each episode will explore a new storyline. However, the creators did say this:

“pop-culture parodies, musical showstoppers, takedowns of historical baddies, and even some important safety tips.”

Each episode will be set in a new setting; they range from Warner Bros Studios to outer space and more. Pinky and Brain will yet again be the main characters and they are coming back with some new tricks! Some insider reports gave away a major chunk of plot:

“Yakko, Wakko and Dot return for an all-new season of this iconic, family-friendly series with something for everyone: pop culture parodies, musical showstoppers, takedowns of historical baddies and even some important safety tips. Join the Warners and Pinky and the Brain as they wreak havoc everywhere they go, from the Warner Bros. lot to an international beauty pageant, even all the way into outer space. Keep an eye out for season one favorites Starbox and Cindy, as well as some rejected Animaniacs characters that were left on the cutting room floor.”
