    Good, then bad.

    Okay, this show only lasted 2 seasons. The first one was pretty funny. The second one was just plain stupid. The WB had done what they had always mocked, the dumbing down of kids shows. Having those annoying songs in the second season, Pinky falling in love with a pig, and Elmyra's role getting increasingly bigger in each episode made the whole thing bomb. However, "The Man From Washington", and "The Ravin" was worth a laugh or two. Still, don't waste your time watching the other shows.

    Bad

    I don't really like this show, because THEY REPLACED MONTANA MAX!!! I love Pinky and the Brain, Tiny Toons, and Animaniacs. But I don't like Elmyra, she is too overrated. Cree Summer is a good actress, but this show is bad.

    the lowest point in the history of Animaniacs or Pinky and the Brain

    This is a perfect example of a series that long outlived its usefulness. I loved Pinky and the Brain and watched the show almost religiously, but when some dunderhead at the WB decided to pair these mice with Elmyra, I was horrified. There was absolutely no reason to take them away from Acme Labs except that the show had just run out of ideas. This was an example of the expression "jumping the shark"--it was obvious it was all downhill for the show from then until its cancellation--and with crappy episodes without the original formula, it wasn't long before the show breathed its last. Frankly, I just found it embarrassing to watch towards the end. My recommendation is never watch this incarnation of the show and use massive amounts of denial. Convince yourselves and others it never occurred---the ONLY shows that ever existed were Animaniacs and Pinky and the Brain. They NEVER paired the mice with Elmyra--no, never!!

    This literally ruined Pinky and The Brain

    This is unnecessary and a bad crossover. I think it is better for this show to not run. Also this show includes Elmyra abusing pinky and the brain(which is bad and is a crime). Also Pinky and The Brain is about world domaniation,and adding Elmyra to it(which is unnecessary and bad) ruins Pinky and The Brain.

    Kind of bad...

    I thought the original Pinky & the Brain series was excellent, but this spin off was pretty bad. Pinky and Brain were still funny, but everything else wasn't. For those that don't know, Elmyra was from Tiny Toons. Her character worked there, but in this show she was really just annoying. This show lacked a lot of the humor it's predecessor had. This show lasted only one season.

    • Trivia
      Everyone involved with this series absolutely hated it. Its theme song included the lyrics, "Now Pinky and the Brain share a new domain. It's what the network wants, why bother to complain?", referring to executive meddling. An image during this part of the theme song showed Pinky and the Brain getting kicked out of the Warner Bros. office while Elmyra Duff watches this happen during these lyrics. In addition, a spoken line by the Brain towards the end of the theme song states, "I deeply resent this."
