Jacob B The tonal shifts might not be to everybody's liking and all the inside jokes show that Animaniacs fans were prioritised over newcomers but vibrant animation, witty lyrics and, of course, the excellent comedy make Wakko's Wish a treat for fans of the hit '90s cartoon...and, as an intended grand finale, a chance for the crew to go out on a high note.
