Who's on stage?

I am about to go on a very long rant, but before I do I thought I'd grace you with a trasncript of the funniest bit to ever make its way onto Animaniacs. Slappy and Skippy Squirrel's "Who's on Stage" a send up of Abbott and Constello's "Who's on first."

Picture this:

Slappy Squirrel and her little nephew Skippy are at Woodstock. They are watching The Who perform when Slappy turns to Skippy and asks....



Slappy: Skippy, what's the name of that group playing on stage?

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the group.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The group on stage.

Skippy: Who!

Slappy: The group playing on stage.

Skippy: Who!!!

Slappy: You're starting to sound like an owl, Skippy.

Skippy: Who is on stage!

Slappy: That's what I'm asking you: Who is on stage?

Skippy: That's what I said.

Slappy: You said who?

Skippy: I sure did.

Slappy: So tell me their name.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the group.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The group on stage!

Skippy: Who!

Slappy: The name of the band on stage!

Skippy: Who!!!

Slappy: You're doing that owl thing again, Skippy.

Skippy: I am not, Aunt Slappy! I'm telling you: Who's on stage.

Slappy: So tell me.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the group.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The group on stage.

Skippy: Who!

Slappy: That's what I'm asking you!

Skippy: And I'm telling you the answer!

Slappy: Wait... Skippy, let's start over. Is there a band on stage?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Does that band have a name?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Do you know the name of that band?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Then tell me the name of the band on stage.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the band.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The band on stage!

Skippy: Who!

Slappy: The band playing on stage!!!

Skippy: Who!!!

Slappy: That's what I want to know!!!

Skippy: I'm telling you!

Slappy: Who is on stage?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Who is?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Oh, so the name of the band is Yes.

Skippy: No, Aunt Slappy. Yes is not even at this concert.

Slappy: Then who is on stage?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: Who is?

Skippy: Yes.

Slappy: That's what I just said: Yes is on stage.

Skippy: No, Yes is not here. Who is on stage.

Slappy: What are you asking me for?

Skippy: I'm not!

Slappy: Wait... Let's try this again. Do you see the band on stage?

Skippy: No, I don't see The Band! That's a different group entirely.

Slappy: On stage, Skippy. Look! See the band?

Skippy: No, I don't.

Slappy: Get rid of those John Lennon glasses and look! There! There's the band!

Skippy: No, that's not The Band! The Band is performing later on. Who's on stage!

Slappy: You tell me.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the group on stage.

Skippy: Who.

Slappy: The name of the group!

Skippy: Who!

Slappy: The group on stage!

Skippy: Who!!!

Slappy: The band!!!

Skippy: No, The Band's performing later! Right now, we're listening to Who!

Slappy: That's what I want to know!!!

I'm jealous.

I watch re-runs of Animaniacs all the time and yet I still haven't been able to catch this episode since it first aired. I would love to see or listen to it again.

Man i havent thought about that episode in years. Animaniacs was the best, oh and Hyteria wasnt that bad either, i still crack up thinking of Resinance Man.

Hyteria? What's that?

Its the follow up show to animaniacs, it was more blatanly educational since it was about history facts but with a animaniacs twist.

I love me some Abbot...and Costello too. Oh yes, and of course, the Animaniacs are neat. One of my favorite bits is that song "The Monkey Won't Do". That and "The International Friendship Song" *lol*
