Dot's full name. Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Banana Fanna Bo Besca III
Hotline controversy. Episode 6 was pulled from Hulu for some time because during the PATB segment a tv advert starring Brain included a real sex hotline
Pink is the genius theory. Popular theory based on the fact that the theme song mentions one being the genius and the other insane but not specifying which one is which. It has more evidence, but I want to keep this brief. You can read it here
Hello Nurse name. It's Heloise Nerz
Uhhh. A sound Yakko sometimes makes as a kind of verbal tic.It was improvised by his voice actor
Yakko balloon incident. A Yakko inflatable balloon was displayed on top of the real life wb water tower to promote the show. However, when Bob Daley, who ran the studio at the time, saw the balloon, he thought that it was a misshapen Mickey Mouse and they were being attacked by Disney.
The Warner's ages. Revealed in the Talkin' Toons podcast . 14, 11 and 9 respectively
Cartoonus characterus. The Warner's species according to Tom Ruegger
Green ducks. Originally the show was going to star a family/group of green ducks. Eventually the team scraped the concept due to ducks being overused in cartoons
Yakky, Smakky & Wakky. A "prototype" of what eventually became the Warners. Yakky (who became Yakko) was the chatty one, Smakky the violent one and Wakky the weird one (this two were fuse together to create wakko). There was also a nameless female character that became Dot.
Brinky. The ship between Pinky and the Brain. Very popular amongst the fandom
Fandom Angst. Despite being a comedy show, the fandom tends to create lots of angsty fan works
Salad breadsticks soup. These beautiful images:
Milk fic. Angst fanfic called "Big Brother's Responsibility" that starts with Yakko drinking milk and having a mental breakdown because he had a fight with is siblings and is lactose intolerant. It became a running joke in the fandom

Animaniacs bible. The show's bible ( a reference document used by screenwriters for information on characters, settings, and other elements of a project)
Cancelled movies. In 1995 there were plans for a movie ( Wandering Warners We) that was scrapped because of wb prioritizing space jam. This Means Warners (set in world war II), Revolutionary Warners (an adaptation of Oliver Twist) and Warner Land (in which the siblings harras santa) were also scrapped ideas.
Cut characters. Characters that didn't make it into the show. These include Bossy Beaver and Doyle (a beaver duo), The Fleas and Nipsy and Russell (a raccoon duo)
Animaniacs live. A concert musical live show where Rob Paulsen (the voice of Yakko and Pinky), Randy Rogel (one of the animaniacs songwriters) perform songs from the show.
Reboot concept art in cuphead art style. There is concept art made by Studio MDHR (the studio behind cuphead) of the Warners in a rubber hose art style.
Nickelaney. It references how the show's intro was butchered in the nickelodeon reruns by writing their name in the beginning, shortening the song and replacing all the variable lines with "nickelaney". It was so bad that apparently lots of at the time fans refused to watch the reruns. A similar thing happened with PATB
Yakko's boat. An image of Yakko with a toy boat that somehow became a meme (I remember seeing it mostly on Instagram)
Salppy dementia episode. Episode 83. Known for being the the most serious and emotional episode of all the series. Sadly it was largely based on Tom Ruegger's memories of visiting his aunt at a nursing home.
Axe fic. A fic called Soliloquy of Regret where Yakko starts killing people with an axe. The first half consists of Yakko slowly descending into madness and the second is about the animaniacs cast trying to stop the apocalypse. Unlike the milk fic that is just angst for the sake of being angst, the axe fic its so insane that ends up being entertaining (at least for me jajs)
Yakko Alvin Warner. Yakko's second name is Alvin according to the comics
1-855-HULU-FAN. At one point after the release of S1 of the reboot you could call this phone number to "talk" to the Warners (it was actually a prerecorded voice message)
Pay for play/pay or play contracts debate. The closed captioning in the og series mistakenly had the line as "pay for play" contracts instead "of pay or play". This sparked an online debate in the old fandom about which line was the correct
Hello Nurse is a secret agent. It's revealed in the comics.
Broadcast Nuisance delated scenes. Some parts of the episode were cut and redubbed because the warners were being too cruel
I'm mad theatrical version. The song was originally released as a theatrical short for Thumbelina. This version included additional title cards that are partially found lost media.
Album exclusive songs. Some albums included songs that weren't in the series ( I'll Take an Island, Several Drops of Rain, the Hello Song)
Pinky is a masochist. There are some instances were pinky seems to enjoy being in pain (though this is inconsistent throughout the show)
Buddy was real. In universe, Buddy was a character whose boring cartoons lead to the creation of the Warners. Turns out he wasn't created for the show, he's a real Looney Tunes character who was the lead star of Warner Bros. cartoons from 1933 to 1935.
Kathy Page Cowan credits running gag. During season 1 and 2 of the og series Kathryn Page (Tom ruegger's assistant) was credited with all sorts of random things as a gag.
Jesus episode. Little Drummer Warners (episode 49). The Earners sing a song to baby Jesus. I added it due to its more serious tone compared to other episodes and just because, aside from the episode where they go to hell, is the only instance where the Warners interact with a religious figure.
Six flags. In the 90s the warners made appearances as costumed characters at Six Flags Theme Parks.
Cancelled robot chicken sketch. It would involve the Warners doing edgy stuff. Apparently cancellation was partly due to the original voice actors refusing to reprise their role out of respect for their characters. As an additional fact, a few years later they made a PATB parody with Maurice LaMarche reprising his role as Brain. In an interview he admitted he regrets doing it..
Sakko Warner. Is the cousin of the Warners who appears in the 33rd issue of the comics.
