Tom Ruegger Remembers Pinky and the Brain

Pinky and the Brain attempt to find the State Department.
A generation ago . . . 

Yes, a crisp twenty years have passed since Pinky and the Brain took to the airwaves in their own Sunday night show. Producer Tom Ruegger recalls it well over at Cartoonatics.

My own contribution was Episode 6, "Brainania" where P&B hoped to build a colossal clothes dryer and render the world helpless with static cling. But to fund the project, they must first create their own nation, then bilk the United States out of foreign aid. This plan, by all accounts, should have worked.

It did work. At least the part for securing the funding. Brain just destroyed the check in a moment of anger.

Very true.

Brain's temper was a plan derailer in it's own right.

His temper and Ego together make Brain more of a liability to his plans than Pinky's supposed stupidity could ever be.

A fatal flaw, as they say in the writing biz.
