New Looney Tunes

As a long time fan of the Looney Tunes franchise, I was hopeful for Wabbit after the "new" Looney Tunes show was canceled after 2 seasons. That show had our entire family watching again and again and laughing every time. Wabbit, on the other hand, feels hackneyed, uninspired, and disappointing. Not a single laugh from anyone in my house yet.

We will continue to watch, in the hope that it gets better, but this is not a show to engage new viewers, I believe. My son, who has gained a love of all things Looney Tunes from me, isn't even interested in watching further shows.

Maybe the writers just need to grow into the show.

I've always been a huge Looney Tunes fan. I love his humor, his slapstick, and his memorable characters. I was always a fan of classic shorts that always made me laugh at the looney tunes jokes. I was excited to see that they would do The Looney Tunes Show which in my opinion was pretty decent. I wish the series had continued with more seasons. This is how in 2015 I realized that they would premiere a new series based on The Looney Tunes called Wabbit. I didn't know what to think, if it was going to be good or was it just going to be average or mediocre. Admittedly, the series has that classic looney tunes feel to it and the characters are still personable as ever. Regarding the animation, I don't think it's as bad as many say, in my point of view the animation is quite good even though it is not so flashy. I really liked the first episodes of the first season by bringing back Bugs Bunny, Yosemite Sam, Wile E. Coyote, The Tazmanian Devil, Foghorn Leghorn, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig. Strangely I only have one problem and that is that despite everything, the art style and the character designs do not fit in the series. At least I think the series improved a bit in season two by bringing most of the classic Warner Bros. Characters into the series.

So it really gives that classic feel to the show, even though I wasn't really comfortable with some things yet. I could still say that the series is meh. It is not exactly bad and of course it may not look like the classic looney tunes because you can feel uncomfortable from time to time with the character designs, but it can still be decently fun.

God awful would be an understatement for this abomination. I could only stomach a few episodes of it due to its horrible attempts at slapstick and its puke worthy character designs.

I am a huge fan of both the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies shorts and the sitcom style Looney Tunes Show, which I think gets a little too much hate. At least it tried to be different and stand out from the originals unlike this dreck.

Its first major problem is it's trying very hard to be like the old theatrical shorts and it just wont work. The reason why, for starters, is its focused on ONE character Bugs Bunny. In these five minute long episodes you see the same characters going through same shtick every time. The old shorts had many characters with different "shticks" so you can see something new and someone else in each cartoon. Secondly the slapstick humor just doesn't work as well it used to back in the day especially since it's toned down now. Thirdly Squeaks is an unnecessary character especially since they had an entire library of Looney Tunes characters to go with. He's very annoying and doesn't talk and I find him dreadfully boring.

Let's talk about Bugs Buuny a bit. His design is pretty bad, I would say it's worse than his design in season one of the Looney Tunes Show and that was pretty bad. His attitude and demeanor doesn't scream like Looney Tunes to me and if you're trying to copy the old shorts he has to have at least a similar attitude. Even if you're going with Chuck Jones's Bugs Bunny he still isn't right.

Let's go into some of the other characters. I already told you about Squeaks so lets go to Yosemite Sam. He is BY FAR the worst looking character in this show. Looks nothing like his original design, completely left field with his look. I mean it's hard while watching the show with him in it because his design is just so distracting that I can't even pay attention to what's going on in the show. And oh boy, Wile e Coyote. Yeah, he makes a few appearances, and his character design is not much better than Sam's. They're using the talking "genius" version of Wile e Coyote which I kind of like, they rarely use that version of him in any Looney Tunes cartoons so it was nice to see that. If you can get past his horrible design then he's tolerable, at best.

Let's talk about the length of each episode. They are about five minutes long and offer very little in set-ups and plots. It just doesn't work as a TV show. The animation isn't on par with the old shorts nor is the jokes. They poorly copied the old short's formats and it just doesn't translate well in today's age. Especially since there's no nostalgia factor; there's no good looking background settings; the classical music that we're used to isn't there; and it lacks a lot of the other great characters.

This show is so unbelievable bad. I couldn't, of sound mind, recommend this show for anybody. Fan or not of the Looney Tunes steer clear of this show at all costs. At least until they fix some these issues like making longer episodes, putting in more characters, and giving everyone a face lift. It needs to be its own show instead of copying something it could never be.

I have always been a fan of looney tunes and even "looney tunes show" which i thought was such a good show but they canceled that show in favor of "wabbit" which is such a step down from the looney tunes show

Wabbit is just a unfunny version of bugs bunny that after 10mins of watching i had to turn off in disbelief that they canceled the looney tunes show and replaced it with this

If you are a fan of looney tunes then i would seriously warn you to give this a miss as you will be deeply disappointed that they canceled the other show for this

i would recommend searching online for some old looney tunes or better yet the looney tunes show and just watch that because it was a more funny and such a better cartoon

Utter garbage. They just need to give up making these horrible cartoons calling themselves Wabbit or the New Looney Tunes. Mel Blanc and Chuck Jones must be rolling in their graves
