The new series is set to debut in 2020, as what Hulu is calling their first original series made specifically for families. Hulu will be teaming with Amblin Television and Warner Bros. Animation to revive the animated series with Steven Spielberg on board to executive produce.

As part of the deal, Hulu also acquired the streaming rights for the existing “Animaniacs” episodes, as well as those for “Pinky and the Brain,” “Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain,” and “Tiny Toons Adventures.” Those episodes are available for streaming now.

“Animaniacs” ran from 1993 to 1995 on Fox Kids before switching to The WB from 1995 to 1998. In it’s five-year run, the series won eight Daytime Emmys.

It is unclear yet if the original voice cast will be returning for the new episodes.
