Top 10 Adult Jokes In Animaniacs

Fingerprints
Dot scoops up the legendary musician Prince in her arms and proudly announces she found him. Yakko quickly corrects her by explaining they actually need fingerprints to solve the mystery. Prince flashes a suggestive smile at Dot, who looks disgusted and confidently replies that she doesn't think so.
This one is hilarious! Yakko tells Dot to dust for prints, which she interprets as Prince, as in the famous singer, and she ends up grabbing him. Yakko tells Dot that he meant "fingerprints," and Dot says, "I don't think so."
Speaking of Prince, he was a great man. His music was amazing, and he meant so much to all of us. We shall never forget you, Prince. RIP

Pianist
Beethoven himself proudly drops by to introduce his famous career as a pianist. His heavy accent makes the word sound incredibly scandalous to the naive Warners. Yakko hilariously shuts the composer down and tells the audience goodnight while parents everywhere gasp for air.
I also happen to be a pianist, but there's a reason why I don't phrase it like that. I simply say that I play piano. I like to keep my self-esteem intact.

Conjugate
Miss Flamiel becomes incredibly frustrated trying to teach Yakko how to conjugate verbs. The ultimate wiseacre plays dumb and claims he has never even kissed a girl. The teacher makes it ten times worse by offering to conjugate with him on the board, prompting Yakko to immediately bid the audience goodnight.
It took me a while to get this joke, but now that I get it!

Give Me the Bird
Miles Standish demands a turkey by screaming at Yakko to give him the bird. The lightning-fast Warner immediately fires back that the Fox censors simply won't allow that kind of behavior. It takes years for innocent kids to finally realize Yakko was talking about flipping a certain middle finger.
I think this line was said in two episodes. In one of them, Yakko responds with, "The Fox censors won't allow it," and in the other, he says, "This is a kids' show." I want to give the bird to the people who ended this show.
Pulled this on my brother one time.
Me (running away from him with his bird figurine)
My bro: Give me the bird!
Me (thinking): Well, you walked right into that one.
Me: I'd love to, but the Fox censors won't allow it!

What Else You Got in There?
A severely frazzled Miss Flamiel reaches deep into the neckline of her dress to fish out a red marker. Yakko ignores the lesson entirely and leans in with a massive grin to ask what else she happens to be hiding down there. The blatant thirst for her hidden assets remains an absolute masterclass in getting away with murder on daytime television.
I don't remember the name of the episode, but I thought it was pretty funny, especially when the teacher pulls a marker from her cleavage, which Yakko gets pleasure from. Yakko certainly has a dirty mind.

Stop Playing with My Bust!
Wakko strikes gold when he finds a giant statue head of Dr. Scratchansniff and cracks it open like a massive Pez dispenser. The furious doctor storms into the room and commands the Warners to stop playing with his bust. Yakko smirks and blows a kiss to the camera, perfectly sealing the double entendre for older viewers.
-
You Forgot Uranus
Yakko blasts through a catchy musical tour of the solar system but completely ignores one vital planet. Wakko jumps in at the end to remind his brother that he forgot Uranus. Yakko simply bids the audience goodnight, flipping an innocent astronomy lesson into a totally timeless anatomical punchline.
Who hasn't laughed at the name Uranus? Even when I was a kid, I thought it was funny.
-
I Got the Buns
A ridiculous conversation about painting naked people in the Sistine Chapel suddenly morphs into a strange picnic inventory. Yakko brags that he brought the beans, while Wakko happily claims the ketchup. Dot immediately spins around, shakes her backside right at the camera, and confidently declares she has the buns.
Wow! If she wasn't just a kid, I would probably be amused.
-
Truth or Dare
A cartoon version of Madonna crashes a chaotic studio party filled with stuffy Japanese investors and a highly stressed Mr. Plotz. The controversial pop icon confidently grabs the businessmen by the arm and drags them away to play Truth or Dare. Plotz instantly turns bright red and steam shoots out of his collar while every adult watching completely loses their mind.
I would definitely play Truth or Dare with Madonna any day.

Let Me Know When Those Costumes Get Heavy
Yakko hits the stage as the Ghost of Christmas Future and belts out a massive musical number surrounded by gorgeous chorus girls. The beautiful dancers strut their stuff in incredibly revealing outfits. Yakko breaks character for a split second to ask the ladies to let him know when those costumes get heavy and unleashes a wild growl.
The whole episode "A Christmas Plotz" is my favorite Christmas special in all of animation, but the part where we see Yakko as the Ghost of Christmas Future is the best part of the whole thing. He is a non-stop, wisecracking, crooning, lovable ball of comedy genius. And the parts where he flirts with the inordinately dressed dancers are just great.

Puberty Was Inordinately Kind to You
Brain transforms himself into a wildly successful country music star and immediately crosses paths with a busty Dolly Parton caricature. She enthusiastically introduces herself as his biggest fan and waits for a response from the genius mouse. Brain takes one look at her ridiculously exaggerated figure and dryly compliments how wonderfully puberty treated her.
