At the Television Critics Association’s Summer Press Tour, Hulu announced that a 13-episode second season of Animaniacs will arrive on the Disney-owned streaming platform on Friday, November 5, 2021.
"Yakko, Wakko, and Dot return for an all-new season of this iconic, family-friendly series with something for everyone: pop culture parodies, musical showstoppers, takedowns of historical baddies, and even some important safety tips. Join the Warners and Pinky and the Brain as they wreak havoc everywhere they go, from the Warner Bros. lot to an international beauty pageant, even all the way into outer space. Keep an eye out for season one favorites Starbox and Cindy, as well as some rejected Animaniacs characters that were left on the cutting room floor," according to a synopsis from Hulu.
Oscar-winning director Steven Spielberg returns as executive producer of the series, with Wellesley Wild serving as showrunner and executive producer.
