* ''WesternAnimation/SharkTale'': Lenny's name is probably inspired by Lennie Small. There's even a short AndCallHimGeorge moment with Oscar.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'': The Rita and Runt cartoon "Of Nice and Men" is a loose WholePlotReference to ''Of Mice & Men'', with a cameo appearance by Lennie and George as portrayed by Creator/LonChaneyJr and Creator/BurgessMeredith in the 1939 film version.
* ''WesternAnimation/Animaniacs2020'': The title of "Of Mice and Memes".
* ''WesternAnimation/BungleBrothers'': Joey's temperament is clearly patterned after Lennie; as such, George is his George.
* An episode of ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' is called "When Mice Were Men".
* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'':
** "Of Mice and Little Green Men".
** Peggy scoffs at John Steinbeck during a performance of ''Of Mice and Men''.
* ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' codified the AndCallHimGeorge trope. Willoughby the dog from ''The Heckling Hare'' (1941) and Hugo the snowman from ''The Abominable Snow Rabbit'' (1961) are based directly on Lennie.
* Leni Loud from ''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'' is named after this book's Lennie. This is fitting, as they are both unintelligent, although Leni is simply TheDitz rather than intellectually disabled. In fact, [[WhatCouldHaveBeen in development]], Leni was going to be a SuperStrongChild who [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength did not know her own strength]], before being changed into a fashionista.

* ''WesternAnimation/TexAveryMGMCartoons'' also revel in ''OM&M'' parodies.
** "Lonesome Lenny" is probably the ultimate example of this. "You know, I had a little friend once — ''[[PleaseWakeUp but he don't move no more!]]''". At which point Screwy Squirrel (the "little friend" in question) pulls a sign saying "Sad ending - Ain't it?" [[KilledOffForReal Noticeably, this is the last Screwy Squirrel Cartoon chronologically]].
** Avery did a series of cartoons with George and Junior, a vaguely bear-like pair closely modeled after George and Lenny. Junior's regular screw-ups required him to bend over for George to kick his ass. This was actually the censored version. A more controversial version had Junior turning around so that George could ''shoot him in the head''— [[spoiler:exactly like the ending of the book it was referencing]]. It was presumably changed due to a case of DudeNotFunny.
