The Animaniacs Twitter Watch Parties are livestream events held on the official Animaniacs Twitter page in 2020 and 2021 that were only viewable in the United States. In each live-stream, an episode of the Animaniacs reboot premieres a few hours in advance of its Hulu release.

Trivia[]
- As Hulu releases all episodes of the show "all-at-once", these live-streams were the only time any of the reboot's episodes got to have more "traditional" individual premieres in the United States. Besides these live-streams, some of the show's episodes received more "traditional" premieres individually in Canada on Teletoon and Cartoon Network, as well as on Latin America's own Cartoon Network feeds following the HBO Max releases.
