===1993-2003: [[Wakko]]=== |
|||
On September 13, 1993, the Warners managed to escape without outside help, much to the studio's chagrin. However, they were no longer able to completely contain them and resorted to simply trying to catch and lock them up as much as possible. During this time, the Warners also starred in their own show, Animaniacs, as one of six major segments; the show became popular in-universe, causing the children to receive fan mail and get swarmed at conventions. The Warners also became close with the show's producer, Steven Spielberg, who Wakko would sometimes call over lunch. Wakko is usually very polite to Scratchansniff, and seems to consider him a role model of sorts, as he can be seen imitating his movements at times; and he also tries to get the doctor to play with him or otherwise spend time with him. Though Wakko doesn't notice, Scratchansniff often gets very frustrated with him due to his habit of taking everything literally, which makes his job as a psychiatrist difficult, as Wakko will tell him what he is touching instead of how he feels, or inflate himself when asked to expand on a thought. Scratchansniff does seem to have made some headway with him, though- while Wakko is nowhere near de-zanitized, he has communicated to the doctor about his severe coulrophobia, which the doctor tries to help him with. The Warners also become acquainted with the studio nurse, Hello Nurse. Yakko and Wakko developed an intense crush on her, and whenever she appeared they will use their customary greeting and often leap into her arms and kiss her. For her part, Nurse seems to tolerate the Warners' behavior, though she does sometimes attempt to capture them with Ralph and Scratchansniff. She is one of the few characters that ever adjusts her wording for the Warners following a misunderstanding, such as in "Variety Speak" and "This Pun for Hire." She also pats Wakko and smiles while holding the boys in "Hello Nurse." The latter song also reveals the brothers are aware and in awe of her intelligence, as Wakko literally sings her praises. The words "animaniacs" and "sitpop" origin from a [[Tiny Toon Adventures]] episode that was named "animaniacs", which had "Baby Plucky's inner tube gets popped by a log and Baby Plucky cries." in the plot. |
|||
On October 29, 1993, Wakko the Beach Ball Popper began usually sitpopping beach balls, and has caused a helium shortage and popped 605 beach balls, 124 exercise balls and 67 hopper balls, including a hopper ball shown during the production of the Animaniacs episode "Phranken-Runt". |
|||
[[Buster Bunny]] was changed to [[Bugs Bunny]] in 1995. [[Wile E. Coyote]] is very popular sitpopping inflatables, but often usually sitpops [[Space hopper|hopper balls]]. [[Elmyra Duff]] would also be seen sitpopping inflatable toys, and mostly sitpops latex balloons. |
|||
In 1996, Wile E. Coyote announced to become a librarian on November 4, 1997, and released new Looney Tunes and Animaniacs DVDs and books seen in Animaniacs, which are ''[[Barney's 1-2-3-4 Seasons]]'', ''[[Waiting for Santa]]'', ''[[Space Jam]], [[Barney's Good Day Good Night]]'', ''[[Barney in Outer Space]], [[Barney's Magical Musical Adventure]]'' and [[Wakko's Wish|''Wakko's Wish'']]. Dr. Scratchansniff left in 1998, with his final episode being an intro to "The Animaniacs Suite." |
|||
===2003-2014: [[Mr. Whiskers]]=== |
|||
[[File:Cobalt Blue Glass Ball 01.jpg|thumb|A failed sitpop of a blue hopper ball by Mr. Whiskers|link=Special:FilePath/Cobalt_Blue_Glass_Ball_01.jpg]]Looney Tunes: Back in Action was theatrically released in the United States on November 14, 2003 by Warner Bros. Pictures. It was the debut of Buster Bunny's Inflatable Popping. |
|||
On January 1, 2004, the inventor of [[Exercise ball|Exercise Balls]]: Aquilino Cosani invented Pop-Resistant Exercise Balls since Wakko kept sitpopping them. |
|||
On August 11, 2006, an Inflatable Popping series with Bugs Bunny was released, which were owned by Paramount since 2011. It features [[Bugs Bunny]], [[Daffy Duck]], [[Taz]], [[Sylvester]] and [[Tweety]]. |
|||
In 2008, Wakko's portrayer was changed from Hogarth Hughes to [[Asher Angel]]. |
|||
In early 2009, Wakko started [[YouTube]] because of his popularity. |
|||
In 2011, The [[Looney Tunes]] Inflatable Popping Series started featuring Blue Sky Studios stuff, because of [[Rio]] coming out that year, which is related to beach balls. |
|||
In 2013, Sylvester Junior was added to the Looney Tunes: Inflatable Popping series. |
|||
===2014-2019: [[Zip Zip|Eugenie]]=== |
|||
While only the two members were available in the Beach Ball gang from 1993 to 2013, Robin from [[Teen Titans Go!]] was added in 2014. |
|||
In 2015, Marvin the Martian was added to the Looney Tunes: Inflatable Popping series. |
|||
In 2017, Robin started [[YouTube]]. |
|||
In May 2018, Bugs Bunny started [[YouTube]]. |
|||
===2019-2021: [[Sam and Max Freelance Police|Max]]=== |
|||
Max from [[Sam and Max: Freelance Police]] was added to the Beach Ball Gang on September 20, 2019. Two weeks later, Risk, Whack, Rob and Max, a Halloween special featuring Mr. Whiskers, Wakko, Robin and Max was released in theaters on October 4, 2019. |
|||
On Friday, October 5, 2018, Bugs Bunny was replaced with Mr. Whiskers due to Toys R Us closing, but he returned on January 31, 2019 as a guest appearance on the [[New Looney Tunes]] episode Hare to the Throne, from January 1 to December 31, 2020 for Pinkfong's 30th Anniversary along with other characters like [[Elmer Fudd]] and Stephen (Chase Gallatin), and from June 8 to September 8, 2023 to give Mr. Whiskers plastic surgery due to This Old Shark not being sung in the Pinkfong Home Video [[Pinkfong's Mother Goose]] because of his first appearance replacing Bugs Bunny in New Looney Tunes (during the filming of the episode The IMPoster) showing beach balls being recycled from [[Movie Crazy]] in 1932, while beach balls were invented 4 years later in [[The Trail of Lonesome Pine]] in 1936. |
|||
On November 13, 2019, Mr. Whiskers was redesigned with longer legs and purple glasses and Mr. Whiskers, Robin and Max stopped popping beach balls. However, they went back to popping beach balls on April 28, 2020. |
|||
In 2020, Max started [[YouTube]]. |
|||
On September 29, 2021, Max's first design was enhanced and now has a yellow clown shirt, a white clown belt and red, white and blue clown pants, as well as heart shaped glasses in a variation of [[Baby Shark]] uploaded on [[YouTube]] to keep [[Baby Shark's Big Show!]] on television. The next day, a beach ball with Wakko's brother Yakko was bought by Wakko the Beach Ball Popper, because of more popularity of Animaniacs during the release of both [[The Addams Family 2]] the next day and the [[The Addams Family (2019 film)|previous film]]. On November 24, 2021, The Baby Shark music video with the alternate version of Max was re-edited due to Wakko getting officially redesigned with a red shirt and red spotted shorts on October 28, 2021 because the blue screen studio crashed where they were filming Baby Shark's Big Show! before Wakko filmed an episode about buying beach balls to sitpop. His voice was also permanently changed from [[Bob West]] to Duncan Brunnan and [[Tim Dever]] because of how worse they had to redesign him. |
|||
On March 2, 2022, Robin from Teen Titans Go was replaced with Maria (also known as Eugenie) from [[Zip Zip]] due to low extreme animation. |
|||
On June 10, 2024, the voice for Mr. Whiskers was changed from Tom Baker to Charlie Adler, which previously played the character in the first Mr. Whiskers short The Magic Hour and in other media since March 18, 2022 (on-screen in Pinkfong since May 26, 2022 and theatrically since June 16, 2023.) |
|||
=== Decline === |
|||
On August 19, 2022, Wakko the Beach Ball Popper started becoming a fan of [[Crayola]] crayons under the “[[Forah (TV)|Forah]]” branding to use for drawing in books to publish starting with Aminals, Aminals, Aminals, and More Aminals as another sitpop word origin. Other replacements for inflatable popping include [[fishing]], [[puppet shows]] and driving. |

Mr. Whiskers and Mrs. Whiskers' text to speech voices were also changed from [[Tom Kenny]] and [[Carolyn Lawrence]] to [[Charlie Adler]] and Brandy's text to speech voice, [[Kaley Cuoco]] because one of the episodes of [[Tom Kenny]] and [[Carolyn Lawrence]]'s show [[SpongeBob SquarePants]], Dumped, was the cause of Wakko sitpopping SpongeBob's beach-ball. |
