We've had cartoons galore here on MyLot. Between my series, Favorite Cartoons, and @TRBrocks420 doing his cartoon series, we've covered a lot of great cartoons, and have yet to match. I'm on #4, which belongs to that great Saturday morning cartoon, Pinky and The Brain.
Pinky and The Brain are lab mice that can talk and think like humans after a lab accident. Brain, of course, as the opening theme song says, is a genius, while Pinky is insane. Pinky is none too bright, but always happy.
Brain has one goal: world domination. Each week, Brain concocts a plan to take over the world, and although he's a willing helper, Pinky ruins it every time.
Pinky and The Brain ran on The WB for 65 episodes, from 1995 to 1998. The pair first appeared as recurring characters on Animaniacs before getting their own show (thanks, Wikipedia!) Steven Spielberg served as executive producer for the popular cartoon.
(Fun Wikipedia Fact: Pinky and The Brain was the first cartoon series recorded in Dolby Surround Sound.)
This was a great cartoon. It was fun tuning in each week to see what plan Brain would hatch, as well as how Pinky would ruin it. It's another cartoon I wish they'd bring back.

I think they might do better at ruling the world than those who are doing it now, lol.

@Ronrybs - it's really funny. On the Christmas special, Brain had it, and Pinky ruined it at the last minute.

For some reason, the 90's had a lot of great cartoons.

I loved Pinky & the Brain. It was eventually shown as a prime time series on Sundays.
