Re : What Got You To Watch Animaniacs?

For me it was prety simple.

Despite being 25 in 1993 ,I still liked cartoons (funny ones.)

I was already waching Tiny Toons & others (that weren't childish.)

So when I saw a commercial for the show in August ,I had to see it.

The short segment (in the ad) with Buttons hammering the thigns together quickly to portect Mindy at the construction site ,made me laugh ,so I knew right away itd be good.

How about you? 

Go for it or just be a gopher!

I'd heard about it from a friend of mine at work. I was 28, and still loved smartly written cartoons (still do actually). We have similar tastes in TV and movies, so I decided to give it a try. The first one I saw was Wally Lama/Where Rodents Dare. It was brilliant, and I was hooked.

I was 6 years old and I had heard it was from the creators of Tiny Toon Adventures so I tuned in as soon as it aired.

For me it was the promos during Tiny Toon Adventures.

I was a TV-deprived child, but in my early teens I watched a VHS of the Superman animated series pilot arc, and one of the ads was for the then-current Kids WB lineup. It stuck with me, and then a few years later when YouTube launched, those shows were one of the very first things I looked up. It's a heck of an experience to be blown away by "Yakko's World" at age 16, 13 years after it originally aired 

Though I remember discovering the show in 1994, I don't remember specifically what led to my discovery. Being five years old that year and regularly watching cartoons, I just remember it catching my attention at some point during that summer when it aired, which led to me regularly watching it ever since.

My childhood I use to watch Fox Kids all the time growing up and I was 3 when this show came out.

When I was like 8 years old and in elementary school, we had an assembly with a guy that worked for Warner Bros. Prior to the show premiering on TV, he showed us an advance clip of the Wally Llama episode. I found it hilarious and eagerly awaited the actual show, and pretty much watched it regularly once it came on the air.

In 1999 this was on every afternoon in the break room of The Great Movie Ride at the then Disney/MGM Studios. We would watch this and Pinky and the Brain when we weren't on stage or running a show.
