Does the color change from white to off white of the fur of the Warners and Pinky and the Brain bother anyone else? Makes me feel like the color of my TV is wrong.
 
I haven't read much of this thread. Does this reboot also include "Pinky and the Brain" short cartoons?

Kor
 
They did a five minute bit on William the Conquerer, who are they, Jon Oliver?

It's amazing how much 10 year old me had no idea Brain was just an amalgam of Orson Welles characters.

I think his voice started out as an amalgam of Maurice LaMarche's Orson Welles and Vincent Price impressions, but the writers have leaned into the Welles homages over the years, doing cartoons inspired by The War of the Worlds, Citizen Kane, The Third Man, etc.
 
Hrm. They go do a dictator’s ball, and Xi Jingping isn’t there?! WTF?!!

Another writer bending over for Chinese money like Lebron James and John Cena.
 
A second episode in a row where they congregate dictators with no China mention.

Kinda hypocritical they go after Trump/Chump so much without mentioning the far more effective dictator in charge of the country whose money we like.

The world is full of dictators; Xi is not the only one. The decision to focus on domestic fascists rather than foreign dictators is completely legitimate.

They included Vladimir Putin, Kim Jung Un, and a third I can’t remember. Literally in the same region of the world as China.

They clearly got censored.

Not having seen the episode, can you tell me if there was a common denominator of those dictators beyond their being dictators?
 
The west doesn't rally have much of a caricature of Xi Jingping that is well know enough to pull off in a mass media cartoon.
