Synopsis[]
Of all the Animaniacs, Slappy Squirrel has been around longer than anyone. She's a well-respected (and possibly feared) slapstick veteran who still hangs around the Warner Bros. Studios today. She's even been around longer than Yakko, Wakko and Dot! But the question remains: how did her journey begin? When her nephew Skippy asks her to explain, what follows is a trip down memory lane exploring the humble beginnings of Slappy, the Slap-Happy Squirrel.
