Animaniacs on DVD : July 25th!
 

• The adventures or misadventures of the Warner Brothers, Yakko and Wakko and the Warner Sister, Dot, who were so crazy that the studio execs locked them away in the water town at the studio. The witty slapstick humor with pop culture parodies and cartoon wackiness is on DVD for the first time ever with 25 episodes.

We had the scoop four months ago that Animaniacs - Volume 1 would hit the streets on July 25th. And the set is even more impressive than we thought at the time! It's a 5-DVD compilation of 25 episodes...750 minutes of Yakko, Wakko and Dot for $44.98 SRP. Video is full-screen, as originally shown. Audio is English, with subtitles in English, French and Spanish.

At the top left of this story is a thumbnail-sized imagewhich came along with the information from Warner about this release. Below is a different image. Not sure which one will be the final cover art.

How exciting! I'm stoked!
My child knows his planets, countries, and presidents thanks to Animaniacs songs!

he hasnt mastered the ingredients song though.

OMG! This is the best news ever! I still know the song by heart. :blush:

My one concern is the song "Be Careful What You Eat". The original lyrics at the end were altered after the show switched networks.

The original lyrics were:

We like sweet allot
So give us all you've got
And we'll shove them in our bodies
Til they make our insides rot

The alternate lyrics (which I believe were also on a CD release) are:

We like sweets allot
But they make your insides
So please take care of your body
Cause it's the only one you've got


I hope this DVD release has the original lyrics.

Zapp, are you pondering what I'm pondering?

OMG. It's going to be hard to resist this. Is 25 episodes a full season? Something tells me it's not, and that means there will be a lot of sets to buy.

At the very least I'll Netflix 'em for old time's sake.

One of GD's first gifts to me was a Wakko doll. :)

I think so Pod, but where are we gonna find chaps our size ?

I think so, mp, but burlap chafes me so.

I think so, 'pod, but me and Pippi Longstocking, I mean, what would the children look like?
