This is the only show I know of where everyone, kids, teens and adults can ALL have fun and actually LEARN things!!!!!!!!!!!! The voice work is incredible, the cultural references are through the roof, the music is fantastic, and don't even get me started on how unbelievably well-written the whole show is. Why aren't shows like this made anymore????

What Parents Need to Know
About Animaniacs
Parents need to know that this cartoon has something for everyone, blending over-the-top comedy and outrageous adventures that are sure to please the kiddies with smart satire and hilarious cultural references that teens and adults will love. There's a fair amount of humorous cartoon violence (explosions, collisions, punches, and the like), the occasional double entendre, and lots of fun found in mild misbehavior, but none of it is likely to affect kids. And the show does features segments with an educational flair, such as songs that teach about the solar system, U.S. history, and world geography.

Really cute
This tv show should be 6+. Listen up parents out there!!! There is nothing wrong with this tv show. You can let your 5 or 6 year old kid watch this. There is some violence in it, but nothing that you wouldn't see in Bugs Bunny. All it is is just cuteness. There is some innuendo, but it's not an issue.
