      Pinky literally accomplished the goal when he begged Brain for a shot to come up with a plan. That is, until Brain convinced him he should “help”. Pinky is the actual genius, Brain is just convincing in his bullshit.

        Pinky always thinks of what brain is gonna do wrong and then enacts the Gilligan Protocol to protect them both.

      Agree. One was always happy, the other always unsatisfied. Obviously, always happy, might be seen as a genius move.

    🎶They’re Pinky and the Brain. Yes, Pinky and the Brain. One is a genius, the other’s insane. They’re laboratory mice. Their genes have been spliced. They’re dinky, they’re Pinky and the Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain, Brain.🎶

      Back when Animaniacs and the Pinky and the Brain spin-off were first airing there was a fan theory going around that Pinky was actually the super genius mouse and Brain was the moron. I remember feeling that this theory had a lot of merit at the time, but it’s been so long since I’ve seen the show I don’t know if I can confidently say to what extent it holds up. If I ever get around to rewatching it, I’m definitely going to be watching through that lense though.

        It’s supported by the show itself. Brain’s plans always fail. The one time Pinky was given a chance, he would have succeeded had the Brain not intervened.

        I think there was one episode where they actually do take over the world, but somehow Pinky ends up being the leader and things go very well. Might just be making shit up though.

        It does. One or a genius the other is insane.

        “The definition of insanity is, doing the same thing over and over, expecting a different result.” Thus by simple deduction, Brain is insane, hence Pinky is the genius.

    Hey, on the episode “Pinky’s Turn”, Pinky actually did quite well. Not so sure about using Fruit Wiggles as currency, but that’s pretty tame compared to what the current clowns are doing.
