Voice worker Rob Paulsen ( Yakko and more ) appreciated Animaniacs being the breathing in for Stephen Colberts " MAGA Maniacs " enliven short .

When you elect someone who is n’t certified to be POTUS and then give him the chance to pick a whole bunch of people who are n’t qualified to hold the positions that they do , what you end up with is madness . When it comes to POTUSDonald Trumpand his gaggle of punk , you have more than that – you have MAGA Maniacs ! Inspired by ( and to the tune of)Animaniacs , Stephen Colbert ’s former - Nox public lecture show offered up a new animated segment call in out Trump , JD Vance , Elon Musk , House SpeakerMike Johnson , and a whole heap more for the mess they ’ve made in less two months ( though it feels like it ’s already been a year ) . Well , it looks like Colbert and his bunch have gotten an official pollex - up for their endeavour from someone who be intimate a thing or two aboutAnimaniacs .

Animaniacs

Voice actorRob Paulsen(Yakko Warner , Pinky , Dr. Otto von Scratchansniff , and other voices in both the original series and the 2020 getting even series ) took to social media earlier today to let Colbert and his late - night squad know that he was happy the beloved animise series could be the brainchild behind their satirical take . " WOW , thank you to [ The Late Show with Stephen Colbert ] , " Paulsen set about his post , including a look at the segment ( which you could check out above ) . " This is an amazing homage to [ Animaniacs ] . You guys are heeeeelarious . " Here ’s a look at Paulsen ’s tweet praising CBS ’s late - night talk show – followed by a face back at another animise Colbert effort :

Colbert: What If Superman “Protected” Women Like Donald Trump?

If you compiled a list of dudes who you would call on to " protect women " ( setting aside the obvious fact that women do n’t require dudes sweeping in to be their defender as opposed to allies who do n’t say and or do unintelligent shit ) and looked all the means to the bottom of that leaning … you still would n’t feel Trump ’s name . From what he ’s articulate in the media to what the tribunal have had to say about his conduct , it ’s fairly clean that Donny is a ready-made " cautionary story " of how not to be a valet – with Donny delivering more and more steaming bundle of object lesson every time he attempts to put together a sentence . But that does n’t matter to Donny because he made it clear back in former October / former November that he was going to be the guardian of women … " whether the women like it or not . " Let that sink in for a moment . Creepy , correct ? You do n’t demand a psychology degree to be able to read a dude who want to force his " security " on others . Well , CBS’sThe Late Show with Stephen Colbertwasn’t willing to have the line evanesce and its distressing implications , enlisting Superman , Lex Luthor , Lois Lane , and some marvellously quondam - timey liveliness to utilise Donny ’s Scripture to The Man of Steel ’s worldly concern .

After a recapitulation of what CNN and MSNBC had to say about Trump ’s remark , we check out an alt - reality sequence of the animate series The New Adventures with Superman . Of course , Lex has Lois tied up so that she wo n’t interfere with his villainous schemes – only for Superman to get in in sentence … to make things really creepy and ill-chosen . So much so that Lois realizes that she might be better off taking her chances with Lex – at least he respects her enough to see her as a scourge . But it ’s the annoyer for the next episode where The Man of Steel is doing a photo op at a McDonald ’s as he hot up up Gallic fries with his heat imaginativeness that has us hoping we get a sequel .
