    By sfan64, Aug 09, 2007 Report Abuse
    Here is my review for the Animaniacs cartoon "De-Zanitized". It is one of the first cartoons on the show. It is also a cartoon I saw on a video released after the popularity of the show. Anyway, it is about Dr. Otto Scratchansniff telling his psychiatrist about how he met The Warners. Mr. Plotz decides to have him get The Warners de-zanitized so that they cause no more trouble for the studio. He tries everything on them, but nothing seems to work. Instead, he ends up being driven crazy by the Warners' crazy humor. After he was done telling his story, he learns that his psychiatrist was actually The Warners, and he becomes so horrified that he flees past the stars. In this cartoon, we learn that Dr. Scratchansniff wasn't really bald from the beginning (That was because the Warners drove him so crazy he ripped off all the hair on his head, making him look like how he does today). This cartoon is so good, it's hard not to consider it a classic.moreless

    • Dr. Scratchansniff: No more gags, no more jokes, and no more monkey stuff! Yakko: Define "monkey stuff". Dr. Scratchansniff: You know, monkey stuff!

    ADD ALLUSIONS

    • Ronald Reagan: In my dreams, I'm the president of the United States.

      In one of the flashbacks, Dr Scratchnsniff is analyzing Ronald Reagan, an actor who did become president.

    • Mr. Plotz: I haven't been this upset since we made Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead!

      The film Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead (1991) was a moderately bad Warner movie starring Christina Applegate.
