Brain Pseudonym?

In Pinky and the Brain, when Brain puts on his human suit, what fake name does he use? (If you can find a video clip, even better!)

My boyfriend claims he used Billy Bo Bob Brain when he put on the long legs and had the fake accent.

There's also the one where he's on the Jeopardy clone... but I can't think of it at the moment (and my sister has my Animaniac DVD's!).

I thought I remembered it as Billy Bob Joe Bob Brain. It's been years since I've seen it though.

Billy Bo Bob Brain is the Country/Western act. When he wore the human suit on Jeopardy, he was just Brain, though the Trebek parody kept calling him Brian.

Wheelieman is right. It's Bubba Bo Bob Brain, the eponymous short is here in its entirety.

However, this was a one episode shtick, not a canonical alter ego or anything. The name wasn't referenced in other human suit episodes IIRC.

Best answer: Bubba Bo BoB Brain is the human suit he uses in one episode but in several others he uses a suit (black tuxedo) he referes to as "Mr. Perkins".

This includes the jeprody episode and the one where he tries to sneak into Fort Knox and a couple others.

I'd like to see Bubba Bo Bob Brain meet Dogbert for President.

Voting worst best-answer selection.

Bubba Bo Bob Brain is a classic.
