** A Meta one from Yakko's voice actor Creator/RobPaulsen. He can still flawlessly sing Yakko's World from memory (even though some of the countries listed back then exist under a different name now, though supposedly he's working on an updated version.)

[[AC: Meta]]
* Back when the (original 1990s) show was still producing episodes, Animaniacs fans would gather together for an event called Animania. They mostly prepared screenings of specific episodes whenever they got the chance. However, way back in 1995, a select group of fans were brought over for a gathering at Warner Bros. Animation and the result was [[http://www2.cruzio.com/~keeper/m_after.htm Animania IV]]. It just goes to show how much the production staff cared on the show.
* Skippy's dialogue is pretty impressive when you consider that his VA was about seven years old when the character debuted. This is especially notable in "Woodstock Slappy" and its "Who's On First?" gag.
* The Warner siblings get to appear in a cameo in Space Jam: A New Legacy. Even though they poked fun at the original film in the 1990s cartoon, it’s good to know that hatchet has been buried. This will also be their second big screen appearance behind their short film, “I’m Mad”.

\n* In "Lookit the Fuzzy Heads", the Warners spend most of the short being tormented by [[WesternAnimation/TinyToonAdventures Elmyra Duff]]. Near the end, they come across Buttons and Mindy. When Mindy wanders off into danger like she usually does, Buttons prepares for [[BadlyBatteredBabysitter his usual routine]], but the Warners stop him in his tracks so that Elmyra can chase Mindy instead. This results in Elmyra taking all the abuse that Buttons usually does. [[ThrowTheDogABone Buttons can't thank the Warners enough]]. This also counts as a great TakeThatScrappy moment for those who dislike Elmyra.

* "The Big Candy Store", during the climax. [[ItMakesSenseInContext The nun, who was rather rudely kicked out by stingy tightwad Mr. Flaxseed, the store owner, for asking him for charity, returns to find Flaxseed in the middle of abusing Yakko, Wakko and Dot.]] [[BerserkButton This does NOT sit well with the nun]], who calls for backup in the form of her justifiably angry convent, who begin bearing down on Flaxseed with rulers. Flaxseed tries to get out of it by [[LogicBomb interjecting with the fact that nuns can't resort to violence]] since they're religious figures. Stopped in their tracks, the [[VillainHasAPoint lead nun stops the others]]. It then leads to this:

* Dot The Macadamia Nut. Another memorable and famous song of the franchise
** Tress [=MacNeille=], Rob Paulsen, and Jess Harnell's vocal performances are on point.
** Even the music is flawless and groovy to listen.
** Slappy's TakeThat towards the end.
--->'''Slappy Squirrel:''' I don't get it! What's the joke?!

** Same goes for Wakko pulling the same thing with the U.S. (all fifty of them!) and their capitals. The only one unimpressed was Ms. Flaumiel [[spoiler:[[KickTheDog who wanted it]] [[Series/{{Jeopardy}} in the form of a question]]]].

* The Survey Ladies of the episode of the same name. For context, they show up in the episode and ask people in particular the Warners to take an absurd survey and won't take no for an answer. Despite everyone's attempts to get rid of them they are absolutely everywhere to the point that the Warners go screaming and running in terror at the sight of them. This is one of the very few times in the series that the Warners get ATasteOfTheirOwnMedicine.
