Press Release
IT'S AN ANIMANIACS EXTRAVAGANZA ON KIDS' WB! WITH THE ULTIMATE, ALL-NEW ANIMANIACS SUPER SPECIAL SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 14
(November 2, 1998 -- Burbank, CA) -- Kids' WB!'s way-cool back-to-back Animaniacs super special follows the outlandish adventures of the irresistible, fun-loving Warner siblings Yakko , Wakko and Dot as they jump from band practice to outer space and beyond on Saturday, November 14 from 10:00-11:00 AM (check local listings).
The lively escapades begin on "Steven Spielberg Presents Animaniacs " in this "show within a show" episode when Yakko, Wakko and Dot do a lot more than just play their instruments during a musical scoring session for an "Animaniacs " cartoon. The fun continues when the siblings join 'toondom's favorite lab mice Pinky & The Brain for a special outer space-themed episode of "Steven Spielberg Presents Pinky & The Brain ."
Kids' WB! is the WB Television Network's children's programming service.[2]

Trivia
The production code for this broadcast is "H14", sorting it under the other "H#" broadcasts from the original Animaniacs .
"Star Warners" was initially due to premiere alone on Friday, October 9, 1998. Two days before its initial planned air-date, the delay was announced. Later on October 28, the new date of November 14 was confirmed.[5]
An alternate episode listing for Animaniacs documents "Star Warners" as part of that series, presumably due to it airing during the special.[6] Additional listings for the episode under its standard Pinky and the Brain labeling exist as well.[7] [8]
