Welcome to the Pinky, Elmyra & the Brain guide at TV.com. Pinky and the Brain, those two genetically engineered lab mice, are homeless now that Acme Labs is no more. And the mice are in need of a place to hide as a secret organization wants to apprehend Brain. While hiding in a pet shop, the mice wound up getting bought by Elmyra Duff. Now the mice are forced to operate from Elmyra's house and endure her twisted ways of caring for animals. Despite all of these new complications, Pinky and the Brain still continue to try to take over the world.

Each of the thirteen episodes were split into two ten minute parts, except for the tenth episode (or nineteenth part) which played for the full 22 minutes.

The series, however, was canceled after only five episodes (ten parts) had gone to air. The remaining eight episodes (fifteen parts) were moved to segments seen on the The Big Cartoonie Show, and with the exception of its first outing on the show (episode six, or parts eleven and twelve) and episode ten (part nineteen), each episode was split into its parts and shown a week apart. The episode ordering also changed from the original design.less «

  This is a discussion regarding the show that I think was inevitable and, to my surprise, has never been brought up before - who do you prefer Elmyra with, Montana Max from "Tiny Toons" or Rudy Mookich from this show? Well, that's a rather silly question, because probably a lot of us are going to agree that Max was the better choice. For one thing, he was around first. Also, while both he and Rudy are both jerks, Max is at least expected to be a jerk since he's rich; Rudy, on the other hand, is just a thickheaded slob who doesn't realize that the girl he lusts for, Patty Ann, is clearly a male mouse controlling a mechanical body. And besides that, Max actually admitted he was in love with Elmyra at the end of "My Dinner With Elmyra". Somebody should seriously write a fanfic in which Max finds out Elmyra's going after Rudy now and schemes to get her back, kinda like "Family Guy"'s "8 Simple Rules for Buying My Teenage Daughter" episode. In the meantime, I did make this music video featuring the triangle. less «

  Well, it seems I've finally found a forum on this site where I can create a forum topic that discusses Elmyra Duff! I feared that if I posted this on the Tiny Toons page, I'd feel embaressed. So I decided to post it here. Y'know, I kinda do like Elmyra. But sometimes, she kinda creeps me out. Other than that, she is one of my favorite characters! Isn't there ANYBODY who likes Elmyra? Please let me know! less «

  9.5 Superb

  I wish I could get this show on DVD I loved it and think it is better than a good portion of the current kids shows. hide « show »

  I wish I could get this show on DVD I loved it and think it is better than a good portion of the current kids shows. I thought it was really funny I love Elmyra and to throw her in with Pinky and the Brain was Classic. Definitely an underrated concept. What ever happened to Saturday morning cartoons? When Elmyra calls The Brain Cranky Big Head just cracks me up. I would love to find this on DVD. Why can't cartoon network run this show and perhaps have fewer of the same boring cartoons that adults don't want to sit through.

  Pinky Elmyra and the Brain hide « show »

  This show is like Animaniacs but it is a cartoon from Animaniacs in thier own show. This show is awesome and it is real funny. I prefered the classic version of this show because it was more funnier but this one is also good too. I like all things to do with Pinky and the Brain.

  The bad spinoff to the good show. hide « show »

  Pinky and the Brain was truly one of the greatest shows of all time. When word was released that Elmyra from Tiny Toon Adventures, arguably the worst character Warner Bros. has ever created, was going to be added to the cast in a spinoff to the show, there were petitions with thousands of signatures to stop this from happening. Everyone knew that it would mean the end of WB's silver age, and it did.
  
  Tiny Toons was a great show, don't get me wrong, but it had one fatal flaw. That flaw was Elmyra. The only good thing that came out of Tiny Toons' cancellation was that we would no longer be subject to Elmyra's annoying, animal-abusing antics. Then someone at WB got the brilliant idea of adding the worst character they've ever created to the cast of one of the best shows they've ever created. It's no surprise that the show only lasted one season.
  
  It's just another example of execs and their stupidity. For God's sake, listen to your fans! We know what we want to see! We do not want to see Elmyra ruining our favorite show! I can't believe they actually cancelled the original Pinky and the Brain for this... they practically killed the legacy. Well, not really, since most people remember Pinky and the Brain from their glory days at Acme Labs. That's the way it should be. If this show becomes viewable again in the near future, might I suggest not bothering to watch it unless you're just curious. This show was the disgrace that put an end to WB's silver age of cartoons.

  They always say don't mess with a good thing. This is why. hide « show »

  I always wonder whose idea it was to do this to Pinky and the Brain. It was just not a good idea at all. The only reason I watched any of it was because I love the original show. This was just a mess. The best way I can describe it is by using one of my favorite episodes of the original Pinky and the Brain. "Pinky and the Brain and Larry" had a great set up. They squeezed him into the opening theme (at the beginning of the season, I believe), and my dad and I were scared to death. We didn't know why they would add another character. After a wacky, Three Stooges-like story, they concluded that the reason things went wrong was because of the extra person. "It's just Yin and Yang! There shouldn't be a Larry!" After an episode like that, why did they go and put Larry back in?
