The characters are immensely likable with unique personalities, with no exception. The highlight segments are both parts of "Punchline" though "The Christmas Tree" is charming.
'Animaniacs' was always one of the finest examples of execution of a great concept doing that and superbly, with the story lines here being funny and endearing. This all springs from a great concept, some shows have a great concept but don't live up to it.
As are the situations no matter how silly they are the characters get into. The scripts and humour are witty and hilarious with clever references and inside jokes. The music is not only catchy it is actually memorable as well, with an instantly hummable main theme. Here, the animation is very well done, with vibrant colouring, crisp beautiful backgrounds and convincing movements for the characters. This is a brilliant episode in a show where even the weakest episodes were not failures and one where there were many classics. There is more than plenty for adults too, especially the hugely clever in-jokes/poking fun that is likely to be better understood by older viewers with more familiarity for what is being referenced and poked fun at. There is plenty for children to enjoy, any child who loves great animation, humour to laugh at and unique characters will be in heaven. It is not to be dismissed as a show just for children. From an early age, it always stood out as one of the most colourful, unique, funniest and cleverest shows, animated and otherwise, ever made. 'Animaniacs' has always been one of my favourites. Actually appreciate it even more now, with more knowledge of the different animation styles, directors, studios and what work went into them. It was a big part of my life as a child, especially Disney, Looney Tunes, Hanna Barbera and Tom and Jerry (with tastes broadening further getting older with Pixar, Studio Ghibli and some of the more mature animations out there), and still love it to this day as a young adult whether it's film, television or cartoons.
