* HoYay:
** True, each of them had female love interests, but a DVD featurette even acknowledged that the show was about the "love" between the duo (they were probably talking about platonic love, but it's easy to misinterpret that). And in the episode "[[Recap/PinkyAndTheBrainS2E11 Brinky]]" the two inadvertently mixed their DNA together in a cloning machine, essentially having a child with each other.
** That whole episode {{exaggerated|Trope}} and pokes fun at the couple dynamic. They both fell into the family roles immediately and Romy addressed them as "my two dads". They went through all the cliche marriage problems of an after school special. At the end of it, Pinky asked Brain if they could have another. Why, even the episode title is a ship name: [[PortmanteauCoupleName Brinky!]]
** There's also the episode "Pinky Suavo", where Pinky, through an accident with Brain's "Personalitron", becomes a charismatic, suave, romantic figure loved by everyone. [[EvenTheGuysWantHim And we mean everyone.]] Watch Brain's initial reaction to the new Pinky and just try to deny that he's suddenly developed at least a mancrush on him.
** For a brief moment in "You'll Never Eat Food Pellets In This Town Again", they sleep in the same bed.
** Pinky also often dresses up as Brain's wife, [[LivingEmotionalCrutch neither can live without the other]] (as seen in "This Old Mouse" and "A Pinky and the Brain Halloween"), Pinky's given up his soul for Brain and Brain's given up the world for Pinky, and in "Just Say Narf" there's a scene where he actually tries to seduce Brain on a bench. Honestly, the sheer amount of Ho Yay moments with these two is staggering.
** [[NoodleIncident "I think so, Brain, but this time, you wear the tutu."]]
** The subtext between them gets even more paper-thin in the comics, with more questionable AreYouPonderingWhatImPondering lines ("I think so, Brain, but this time ''I'' get to play the dishwasher repairman!"), Brain proclaiming that he could kiss Pinky out of gratitude (and Pinky being completely fine with the idea) and Pinky's reaction to Brain apparently severing their friendship is to ''[[DrivenToSuicide attempt suicide]]''.

Changed line(s) 18,26 (click to see context) from:
** Much like parent show ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'', ''P&TB'' frequently took quite a few jabs at Disney, yet ended up as one of the last shows added to the Creator/ToonDisney lineup. It was last seen working the late shift on weekends during the first few months of the existence of successor Creator/DisneyXD.
** One episode, a Franchise/WinnieThePooh parody, has a donkey named [[UsefulNotes/AlGore Algore]] as its Eeyore stand-in. The Brain quickly realizes that the rambling Algore is quite literally full of hot air, causing the occasional warm breeze. Cue jokes about Al Gore being the ''real'' [[Film/AnInconvenientTruth cause of global warming]].
** In "Broadway Malady", The Brain's show, "Angst: The Musical", has a number called The Schadenfreude Polka. A musical with a number about Schadenfreude? [[Theatre/AvenueQ How ridiculous.]]
** In "The Real Life", Brain is informed that "no one listens to vinyl anymore". As of the late 2010's, vinyl has been making a comeback.
** In "A Meticulous Analysis of History" Pinky mentions "the former of governor of Arkansas" with a picture of Bill Clinton in his underwear, referencing a claim that Clinton wrote his underwear off as tax deductible, made hilarious by the Monica Lewinsky scandal a year later.
** The infamous "And Larry" now sounds quite a bit like [[Theatre/{{Hamilton}} "And Peggy."]]
** Pinky and Brain disguising themselves as a cow to go to China in "Around the World in 80 Narfs", which had Brain posing as the cow's head, is funnier in light of computer company Gateway's commercials featuring a talking cow voiced by Brain's voice actor Creator/MauriceLaMarche.
** In the comic story "Were-Mice of London", Pinky and Brain get attacked by a [[WesternAnimation/TheCurseOfTheWereRabbit wererabbit]].
** In "The Megalomaniacal Adventures of Brainie the Poo", a parody of ''WesternAnimation/WinnieThePooh'', the Tigger {{expy}} is "Jagger", parodying Music/MickJagger of Music/{{The Rolling Stones|Band}}, who talks about how old he is, with lines like "The wonderful thing about Jagger is that I'm still swinging my hips", "I can prowl the stage like a cat half my age", and "But the grooviest thing about Jagger is I'm really, really old!". At the time the episode aired in 1998, Mick Jagger was in his mid-50s, and the Stones at that point were thought to be over the hill. But flash-forward to 2021, and Jagger, now in his late-70s, is still performing more energetically than many music stars even younger than him.
