Each segment in the series would show a "good idea", followed up by a "bad idea", both illustrated by scenes with Mr. Skullhead doing both things and suffering (or having someone else suffer) as a result of the bad ideas. All of the sketches were animated by Wang Film Production and narrated by Tom Bodett.
In the DC Animaniacs comic, other characters from the Animaniacs ensemble would sometimes showcase different good ideas and bad ideas as well.
