Yakko, Wakko, and Garlic Bread
Lunch today with most of the original writers and producers of "Animaniacs." We met at the Smokehouse in Burbank across the street from the Warner Bros. main lot. Those deep into "Animaniacs" know the Smokehouse was the favorite hangout of director Weed Memlo. (Voiced by Jeff Glen Bennett.) We laughed and remembered all the fun and not-so-fun times. (Such as when the wrong show was submitted for the 1994 Emmys.) Paul Rugg complained that he didn't get enough garlic bread, we all said "Merry Christmas," and that was that. Hopefully, we'll meet again sooner. Those were indeed special times.

I was wondering why the episode with "Four Score and Seven Migraines Ago" was submitted instead of the countless Funnier and Better-animated episodes (Though I love Wakko's America)
That makes me curious: which episode was INTENDED to be submitted for the Emmys.
