Another panel at RCFM?

[vakkotaur]

My panel poll didn't turn up much as most of the responses were on the order of "it should be about furry stuff." But I have been asked if I'd be interested in being on a panel about Animaniacs since I am a fan, and so are many of my friends.

If this panel happens, kinkyturtle will also be on the panel as he is both an Animaniacs fan and a Guest of Honor at RCFM. If jmaynard decides to go to RCFM, he certainly belongs on this panel.

When the show was still being produced it would have been easier to justify this panel. Nowadays there might not be quite as much general interest, but every once in a while I still get a comment about a shirt or my watch. And July 25 of this year what will hopefully be the first set of a series of Animaniacs DVDs will be released.

The panel needs a few starting points, and I can think of a few possibilities:

* The upcoming DVD release of the first season.
* What got you interested?
* Favorite episode/character?
* Least favorite?
* "You know you've been watching Animaniacs too much when..."
* Other Warner Bros. cartoons of the time (Pinky and the Brain, Freakazoid!)
* Ideas that didn't make it - or should not have.
* Side effects or real world effects.

Those are a few ideas. I do not claim they are all good ideas (Good Idea - Bad Idea?) so suggests for improvements are welcome.

I've done panels before at SF cons, and it seems to me that your ideas are good ones and that you're on the right track. All you need to do is make sure to prepare what your takes are on those and you should be golden.

Yes, the show has gone by the way side but like I said this is also a good way of finding kindred spirits in the fandom. As to how successful the panel will be will depend on how many fans there are and continued interest.

I wish I could be on, I think I would have a lot to say...
