Pinky, Elmyra & The Brain is an American animated television series that premiered in 1998 and ran until 1999. It was produced by Warner Bros. Television and Amblin Entertainment, and was a spinoff from the popular animated series, Animaniacs. The show was created by Tom Ruegger and starred Maurice LaMarche, Rob Paulsen, and Cree Summer.

The premise of the series follows the adventures of The Brain, the genetically enhanced lab mouse with an ambitious plan to take over the world, and his loyal companion, Pinky, a friendly but dimwitted mouse. The two are constantly pursued by their new owner, Elmyra Duff, a young girl who loves animals and is determined to make them her pets.

Each episode of the show follows The Brain as he tries to come up with a new plan to take over the world, while Pinky does his best to help his friend but often ends up getting in the way. Meanwhile, Elmyra spends her time chasing after the animals in her care and trying to keep them out of trouble.

The show features a colorful cast of supporting characters, including the hilariously neurotic laboratory assistant, Snowball; the mad scientist who created The Brain, Dr. Mordough; and Elmyra's other pets, including a group of mutant hamsters and a trio of bumbling ducks.

The show is notable for its clever writing and sharp humor, as well as its unique visual style. The characters are all wonderfully animated, with exaggerated features and exaggerated expressions that help to create a sense of cartoonish whimsy. The show also features some truly inspired musical numbers, many of which are performed by the main characters themselves.

Despite its relatively short run, Pinky, Elmyra & The Brain remains a beloved cult classic among fans of animation and comedy. Its unique blend of wacky humor and clever writing has made it one of the most iconic animated shows of the late 1990s.
