AUDIENCE SCORE
Critic Consensus: Charming and chaotic, if slightly too caustic, Animaniacs is a delightful revitalization of a beloved series that's fun enough to make up for any early fumbles.

Animaniacs 2.0 feels bogged down by its overwhelming need to speak to our Trumpian era, and Yakko, Wakko, and Dot now face the familiar conundrum of how to parody a culture that has become a parody of itself after.
Animaniacs doesn't reinvent the formula of the old episodes, nor does it follow them verbatim. Instead, this is an update that feels as if the show had just taken a scheduled 22-years-long break and are now picking up where they left.
In the world of Animaniacs the best jokes often come in the deep cuts, like one about, of all things, the Oldboy remake.
Animaniacs follows the vibe that we (Millennials, Gen X'ers) created while appealing to their targeted audience with the energy they deserve.
Perfectly captures the irreverent spirit of the original series, including biting wit and innovative animation.
It feels like they truly brought your old friends out of hiding and it will have any 90s kid smiling the entire time.
