Ironically, it has a greater resemblance to how it looked on Animaniacs even more than it did back when the original show was airing. Tower received a repaint in 2019 with a 2D version of the WB shield without any extra banner around the shield.

He thought Yakko looked too much like Disney's Mickey Mouse.ĭue to this incident, whiskers were added to Yakko and Wakko's designs in order to differentiate them from Mickey. Daly was unaware that this was taking place, and reacted in terror when he saw the Yakko balloon atop the tower. To promote the September 1993 premiere of Animaniacs, a giant balloon replica of Yakko Warner sat atop the real Water Tower at the Warner Bros. It is gradually restored with furniture, paint and various toys. It seems that between the events of " The Scoring Session" and the first episode of the revival, the Warners had left it decrepit for a while. Tower returns in the 2020 Animaniacs revival. At one point in time, Chicken Boo lived in the tower while filming movies on the lot. A fun joke is that the Water Tower is somewhat like a "T.A.R.D.I.S." because it's "bigger on the inside" than it is on the outside. It apparently also has a log flume and a roller coaster. The Warners have full living quarters within the tower, including a sleeping area with beds, a kitchen, and a bathroom.
