I'm surprised that this episode doesn't have any reviews on IMDB because I personally found this to be one of the strongest and most inventive episodes of the reboot. Once again, it's a near perfect Pinky and The Brain segment paired with some pretty fun Warner segments, though those aren't perfect by any means. I would recommend you watch this episode if you want some good slapstick and a catchy song or two plus some great storytelling.
"Warner's Ark" was not the strongest segment from Season 2 but it was far from the worst. The song was very catchy and I found this much better than Noah's Lark from the original Animaniacs. I liked the Chicken Boo cameo at the end and I liked the designs of many of the fantasy animals (especially the return of one of season 1's best characters: Benedict the Dragon). "Is This Egg Yours?" was a very fun song with a great beat and some funny moments, though it wasn't the best in my opinion.
"The Apology" is a very funny satire of the popular apology video trend from YouTube. While many could see the Warners as unlikeable and out-of-character in this segment (and I don't blame you), I personally found this hilarious. It was nothing too special, but it was good for what it was.
The highlight from this episode was definitely "Narf Over Troubled Water." It was easily the best Pinky and The Brain segment from the reboot in my opinion with so many fun moments and a heartwarming conclusion. I loved the song "I Ate a Rock" and found it to be funny, along with it being an catchy melody and a loving parody. The episode also dives into the characters, with some of Brain's vulnerabilities being shown here such as his fear of being disliked and his feelings for Pinky. In a rare case, Pinky is portrayed as morally in the wrong, with him becoming too into the life of the famous and neglecting Brain's opinions. In the end, Pinky does learn that Brain was right and comes back for him. The ending was very sweet with Brain and Pinky running away from a studio in a parody of The Graduate. It was kind of a bittersweet ending since I wanted to see more but it fulfilled me nonetheless. I would highly recommend this segment for anyone.
The Warner's Vault was probably the weakest segment in this episode. While I thought it was a very fun parody of cheesy 70's PSAs with a great art style, the pacing felt slow and there weren't many laughs. Still it was a valiant effort with some payoff.
Overall, I think this episode is worth a watch, if only for the Pinky and The Brain segment alone. The pacing can be slow at times, but this is still a highlight of the reboot for me. If you love Pinky and The Brain, you'll like the episode without a doubt. If you like the Warners, you might be a little underwhelmed but not by much. In conclusion, this was a very enjoyable watch and I recommend it.
