I love Pinky and the Brain.
And Earthworm Jim, too.
I've only seen a few episodes of Animaniacs, though.
But all of these have humor that kids don't catch. They're entertaining for kids...but there's another level, too.

Exactly!--I've found the Warner Brothers cartoons actually seem even funnier to me now that I catch the adult level of humor. But I still liked the kids' level when I was a kid. "Sesame Street" has that quality to an extent, too.
Hmmm--trying to remember some "Animaniacs" episodes now. . .One of my favorites was when the Animaniacs fought Barney the Dinosaur and taught him "The Anvil Song" :) I also liked this one with a German wienerschnitzel guy that had a silly song that went with it:
Ist das nicht un piece of bread?
Ja, das ist un piece of bread!
Does it fit in Wacko's head?
Yes, it fits in Wacko's head!
Piece of bread
Wacko's head
[Something something] schnitzelbach. . .
I've never seen Earthworm Jim, but Pinky and the Brain seem to be almost universally popular among people between 18 and 30. If they'll admit they used to watch cartoons, anyway.
