Steven Spielberg Presents: Pinky, Elmyra & Brain The Complete Series (DVD)

Or actually, is it mousy? I got this for the cousin who loves movies, even though I’ve never actually seen an episode of this series, but he watches it more often than the Pink Panther collections!

Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain constitutes an offshot of the ever popular offshot, Pinky and the Brain, which was prominently featured in the animated series, Anamaniacs, produced by Steven Spielberg for Warner Brothers from the brainchild of the studio janitor - that had a run of four seasons (for both but for one season for this series), and takes off from where the exploits of two laboratory mice, namely, Brain -an ostentatious, bombastic, genius, bent on an ever bumbling attempt to take over the world, and his sidekick, Pinky, a conceptual contrast whose primarily vocabulary comprise of the word, NARF, after a naughty little girl, Elmyra, accidentally buys them concealed within the shell of a turtle, following their expulsion from ACME Laboratories where they were being used as laboratory mice, and revolves around their attempts to escape Elmyra's clutches long enough to pursue Brain's attempt at world domination while evading capture from the intelligence agency - who intend to use Brain's encyclopediac knowledge of science and avant garde inventions to their advantage in the US intelligence community's attempt at world domination.Highly recommended.

I had never heard of this cartoon series before but I plan to enjoy it for many years.

Out of the lab and into Elmyra's grabby clutches, much to Brain's ignominy and shame! Funny stuff!

This show is basically a spin-off of a spin-off spinning off two award-winning hit series ! Kinda makes you dizzy just thinking about it, doesn't it ?Well, that's what "Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain" is basically. Long story short, after another attempt at global domination goes horribly wrong, the little mouse with big plans know as The Brain and his crazy cohort Pinky have accidentally destroyed their laboratory and suddenly wind up in a pet store. And if things couldn't get worse, the two rodents are suddenly purchased by "Tiny Toons" character Elmyra ! Even though they're now under a new roof, that doesn't mean our small schemers are up to their usual plans as long as Elmyra and her unconditional love of cute critters stays out of their way.This complete series set has all 13 episodes on two discs such as:"Patty Ann" - The Brain utilizes a mechanical suit like that time he competed in a TV game show only this version makes him look like a little girl. The only problem is that Rudy, the boy next door Elmyra has a crush on, falls in love with The Brain's new persona."Gee, Your Hair Spells Terrific" - The Brain helps Elmyra win a spelling bee in order to win the big cash prize involved."The Cat Who Cried Woof" - In order to keep Elmyra's cat Mr. Pussy Wussy from chasing Pinky and Brain, Brain concocts a formula making the cat think he's a dog !"The Girl With Nothing Extra" - The Brain tries to make Elmyra the most popular kid in school so he can achieve world domination through her and her antics."The Icky Mouse Club" - If he can round up the neighborhood kids into a group, then maybe The Brain will be accepted as the kids' leader in the future."Pinky's Dream House" - Pinky and Brain start living in a doll house fabricated by Elmyra as a request by Pinky himself."How I Spent My Weekend" - Elmyra tells a story of how she, Brain and Pinky traveled to France in order to conquer the world with Brain's giant robot."A Walk in the Park" - The Brain tries to switch the music to a theme park ride with a hypnotic version he created."Squeeze Play" - Rudy steals The Brain's latest invention, thus he and Pinky must get it back. However, there's only one obstacle they must surpass: Rudy's pet snake Tunk !"Teleport A Friend" - At the county fair, The Brain tries out his portable teleporter, but gets accidentally fused with Elmyra. Brain has no choice but to pin his hopes on Pinky who falls in love with a pig."Fun, Time and Space" - The Brain attempts to create his own black hole only to realize it's more unstable than he thought."Hooray for Meat" - In his Patty Ann suit, The Brain attempts to be crowned "Meat Queen" so he can rule the world through meat by-products."The Mask of Braino" - Not "Drano", "Braino", the masked persona The Brain undergoes in an attempt to earn the citizens' respect as their hero.No matter how crazy they may be, The Brain's attempts at taking over the world - and his "potty-mouth" words - may not go as he expected, so don't hold your breath. But there's at least one song in every episode which makes the series as interesting as the shows they're stemming from. Not sure if this one and only season would re-air on the Hub Network, but at least you have the DVD set anyway.

Love this set as it completes the 3 pack pinky and the brain dvd set

I loved it during my childhood and I love it now.Pinky and the Brain was getting stale towards in the end and by adding Elmyra they made it a completely new show.Although her being annoying sometimes it did add a fun new flavor to the show!Great for kids and adults!

What I expected

I never knew this product actually existed until I saw YouTube video about it Pinky , and the Brain were two of my favorite characters from Animaniacs I never really watched tiny Toon adventures all that much , but from what I understand that's where Elmyra got her start this show must have been short-lived . It was never on in my area , so when I got the DVD . It was all new to me . You get every episode ever made on two discs . There is one particular cartoon that is my favorite . I'm not going to give too much away in this one , you learn that Elmyra really cares about her mousy friends as she calls them . What really makes the show. Fun is the fact that Elmyra is basically a human version of Pinky and now Brain has 2 ignoramuses to deal with . I highly recommend this set

Arrived ok, but we haven't watched it yet. I will update if there is any problems.

only one draw back can only watch on pc or laptop because its in american region and not british other than that id forgoton how funny pinky and the brain are

The revival of smart cartoons for youth and adult audiences was larger the work of Spielberg's Saturday Morning cartoons in the 1990s although shows like "Ren & Stimpey", "The Simpsons", and so forth lead the way in prime time. Pinkey & the Brain fared much better in spin-offs than Lucille Ball or The Flintstones even. I have watched it yet though, but I had to have it.
