I'm Not As Good As You, Yoda
We're nearing the end of my Top 5 Favorite Animaniacs Episodes. I've reached my Number 2 spot, leaving 1 spot left. Well, let's start this already. My 2nd favorite Animaniacs episode is Space Probed. In this, the trio are abducted by aliens. These aliens wish to dissect the Warners to discover what earthlings are. What follows the abduction is a brilliant display of comedy and parodies. Take for example the fact that the aliens speak an extra-terrestrial language. Instead of words, we get to read subtitles. Now since the Warners constantly break the fourth wall, they see the subtitles. From there they quote Japanese, Swedish, and other languages, which are translated for us. Now, if that's not funny, I don't know what is. They also parody Star Trek, Alien, and even Star Wars and the Jetsons. The toons escape being dissected, and run around the UFO. Dot meets an alien pig and introduces him to her pet Alien (Yes that Alien). Wakko runs into a training facility and has to run a treadmill. When he does it wrong, an alien shows him how to, but ends up turning into George Jetson. Yakko goes to the pilot area, and starts to steer the UFO. In the end, all the toons get kicked off the space ship, ending the cartoon. So, that's Space Probed. Not only is it one of my favorite episodes, it has the most parodies I've ever seen. So I give Space Probed the Number 2 spot on Cartoon Corner's Top 5 Favorite Animaniacs Episodes. P.S. I'm sorry Yoda, it's my reflexes
