Taking advantage of the situation, the neighboring kingdom of Ticktockia (a parody of Time Inc. However, upon the death of their beloved king, Sir William the Good, Warnerstock enters a state of civil war.

It relocates all of the Animaniacs characters to a quasi-19th century fairy tale world and portrays their race to find the wishing star that will grant them a wish. There is definitely something of worth here and I'm interested in seeing what they do going forward.Wakko's Wish (originally titled as Wakko's Wakko Wish) is a 1999 American animated musical comedy- adventure fantasy direct-to-video film based on the 1993–1998 animated series Animaniacs, serving as the series finale until the announcement of the 2020 reboot of the series.
I mean, who doesn't miss 'Good Idea, Bad Idea'? I'm looking forward to Season 2 next year. I just hope the writers tilt the scale more towards timeless going forward, and with any luck, maybe we'll see some of the old cast again. It's widely agreed Animaniacs is at its best when it's being timeless and when they are here, it's a barrel of laughs. The first season's desire to be timely also runs the serious risk of some episodes and jokes being dated. That being said, there are a few segments that could have been condensed down and this is especially where the lack of most of the original series' cast (the irreplacable Slappy Squirrel, the Goodfeathers, etc) is sorely felt - whether this was a creative choice or the studio, one can't be sure. I could understand why some critics might believe the same charm isn't there - mainly due to the original creators not being invited back - but no doubt there is still a lot of effort being put into this by people who respect the source material. The show's strengths definitely lie with the hillarious animation, the top notch voice acting (Paulsen, Harnell and MacNeille still got it), the orchestral music and for sure, the writing is often more hit than miss. Not perfect, definitely stuff I think they could improve upon, but there's plenty enough to enjoy for fans old and new alike. I would say the first season of the reboot was.
