Animaniacs has released Yakko, Wakko and Dot from the Warner Bros. water tower for the first time in 22 years. In the Hulu revival series, the Warner brothers and the Warner sister get themselves up to date on the latest current events in order to mercilessly make fun of them -- and, according to producers Wellesley Wild and Gabe Swarr, that's exactly why now is the right time for a revival series.

Speaking to CBR, Wild and Swarr explained how the Animaniacs offer respite from a divisive world. They addressed what it was like to write humor during a time where life often seems stranger than fiction, as well as how modern day series like The Amazing World of Gumball influenced the revival. They also revealed Steven Spielberg's direct impact on the animation style, which scenes they're most excited for fans to see and more.
