Synopsis

Pinky and Brain are genetically enhanced laboratory mice who reside in a cage in the Acme Labs research facility. Brain is self-centered and scheming; Pinky is good-natured but feebleminded. In each episode, Brain devises a new plan to take over the world, which ultimately ends in failure, usually due to Pinky's idiocy, the impossibility of Brain's plan, Brain's own arrogance, or just circumstances beyond their control.

Trivia about Pinky and the Brain

The only episode that was animated by Tokyo Movie Shinsha on the spin-off series was A Pinky and the Brain Christmas.

As with Animaniacs, Pinky and the Brain was scored by a team of five composers, led by Emmy Award-winning composer Richard Stone.

Comedian Alex Borstein was also a staff writer, years before her fame on MADTV and Family Guy.

Classic Warner Bros. cartoon director Norm McCabe also wrote for the series.

All individual episode scene backgrounds were created by Warner Bros. background artists, then digitally scanned and color corrected.

The bulk of the episodes created outside of Animaniacs (seasons 2 and beyond) were produced by Rough Draft Studios, Wang Film Productions and AKOM.
