This show is the cartoon equivalent of Seinfeld. Love everything about it. Canceled way too soon. HBOMax needs to bring it back ASAP.

I don't really see why people hated the show when it first came out, it was funny and really interesting. As a looney tunes fan myself I think this is one of the best incarnations and reboots along side scooby doo mystery inc. but now that Wabbit was a thing I find it a bit strange everyone suddenly wants the show back. I think the show should come back and I honestly won't complain if they reboot scooby doo or Tom and Jerry like this as long as they do it right. Maybe if this came out today and it was shown along side teen titans Go, people would see how much of an underrated gem this show is as a looney tunes show and a cartoon. Doesn't really deserve all the hate when CN started making such garbage reboots after 2013.

This show may have a 7.8/10 average rating, but the show gets so much hate for being "mediocre" or "unfunny". Why?
Anyways, this show is actually really funny and clever. The plots are excellent because they are interesting and sometimes funny! The animation is pretty good, but the only animation that is mediocre is the Roadrunner sequences. The characters are actually really funny, especially Bugs and Daffy. The songs or "Merry melodies" are more of a mix. Some are catchy and fun, while others are mediocre. Making the Looney tunes a sitcom doesn't make anything bad. For Looney tunes fans, it may not be as good, but watch the "Road runner and Willie coyote because they are so true to the original.. The show may not be the most original and the old ones were better, but still check this show,out. It's way better than teen titans go, the world of gumball, adventure time, Steven universe, uncle grandpa, and Clarence. Really funny show.

I see people often hate this cartoon just because it's premise is very different from the original show, but personally I love this. The character interactions are great and cause very funny moments to happen. The setting is just a simple little town which is also great and relaxing. While I enjoy watching the original Looney Tunes, I honestly love this show a tiny bit more

I grew up on all the old one and I love them. I was so surprised at how good and hilarious this was when I downloaded a few episodes for my kids.
Now have both seasons. Daddy is incredible.
It's a good nod at the originals and a lot of fun for a new generation.
I prefer this to the newer "The New Looney Tunes Show".

The newest Odd Couple on the small screen is none other than our old friends, Bugs Bunny and his house mate Daffy Duck. Bugs, in his usual swarmy manner, deals with Daffy's self-absorption and nutty eccentricities while coping living under one roof with the delusional mallard. The result: witty dialog and excellent slapstick, and combined with the above-average animation, makes for one great show. However, the sly, conniving yet knuckle-headed Daffy we grew to know and love over the years has been reduced to a clueless knuckle-headed frat boy roommate who actually seems quite fond of Bugs...somewhat of a disappointment but not enough not to enjoy the show.
The cast of characters are drawn in the delightful old Chuck Jones style making them visually appealing, that is except for Bugs who looks like a parody of the original rabbit. His design has been simplified (for what reason?) and at certain angles, bears little resemblance to Bugs at all. This Bugs Bunny could easily fit in with the cast of "Drawn Together". Still, the facial expressions Bugs uses are wonderfully "Friz Freleng" keeping the character's personality familiar to the audience.
Aside from that, "The Looney Tunes Show" offers classic and modern animated lunacy that will appeal to all ages. And if you're lucky enough to catch the cgi Road Runner/ Coyote clips, you'll be in for a real treat.

its a really good show. do not listen to any of the negative guys, they want classics.
This isn't 1940, this is 2016, classics will not appear ever again and you have to realize that. This cartoon is good reboot. they live in house in a modern city. They even go to local places, like a copy store, pizza place, the sunset room. It is the perfect cartoon. I wish there were a few more seasons. Then I could keep watching it every day. It is good, not as good as the classics, but the best reboot since the 90s.
WB is making bad decision with Teen Titans Go!, end that, continue this. It would please your fans more.

This is one of the worst shows I have ever seen I would rather watch All the twilight movies and all the episodes of problem solvers, honey boo boo and secret mountain fort awesome then watch another episode of this show, they ruined all The characters, plus the show is not even "looney" Bugs is boring and it feels like he lost all his energy, he is your average Joe/ football fan Daffy is A STUPID MORON who is self-absorbed and ridiculous, he was self-absorbed in the original but he was never STUPID Porky is a fat, nerdy, ugly, loser who is just plane boring to watch compared to the stud of the 1900's Lola is bugs' stupid, obsessive, blonde stalker, even though bugs sucks now It is hard to watch daffy and Lola being such morons around him' Tina is not even a Looney tune, I like the original idea but seriously GIVE HER PERSONALITY she has this stupid, thick long island accent though I do enjoy that she has a lick of sense she is the only character that is bearable Granny is now the stereotypical 95-year-old woman Witch Hazel is now Witch Lezah and Gossamer is her son (What The Heck?!) Elmer Fudd is a news anchor and once sung about grilled cheese (again Wha??????????) Yosemite Sam is even stupider than Lola and daffy and was once featured rapping, no not rapping a present to bugs which was really a bomb, rapping...

This new Looney Tunes Show was a perfect compilation of our favorite classic characters and how they would have grown to our time now, while still keeping their humorous personalities and wacky antics. It also gave a positive response to our stuffy society's view of Speedy Gonzalez ( original cartoons considered racist and pulled off TV). The Show portrays more in depth personalities of our little heroes that makes you love them even more. It's like getting to know them behind the scenes but yet seeing them referring to their good old days. Like us Adults remembering the classics and sharing this now with our children. I think it's an excellent re-make and come back for kids today and us- from yesterday. If you haven't seen this, give it a chance, your life will be happier :D

I am an absolutely huge fan of the Looney Tunes. I have several of the Looney Tunes DVD sets (mostly Golden Collection), and when I saw that Cartoon Network was doing a whole new series featuring their biggest stars I was hoping that it would try to be faithful somewhat to the originals. I was very sadly disappointed.
The classic characters from the Looney Tunes are classically anti- establishment even before it was "hip" to be that. They were jazz music to Disney's "classical". They were fast, frenetic, loud, devil may care. Sure, they sold war bonds during WWII, which only shows that they pushed things without going too far. They lampooned everyone and everything. Even some of the latest works from the re-opened Warner Bros. Cartoon studios (Tiny Toon Adventures, Animaniacs, Pinky and Brain, etc) managed to recapture that with mostly new characters. But this show is hardly faithful to anything of the originals. The Looney Tunes have calmed down, have left their roots, and become mainstream. There's no more clever wordplay, or genius such as "Wabbit Season, Duck Season." I dare say, they've become sterile. I honestly think people such as Tex Avery, Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, etc. would be rolling in their graves if they saw their work being trashed like that. I know I would.

The Looney Tunes Show may have the seemingly questionable premise of transplanting the cast into a sitcom.... but it was managed wonderfully. The show gets too much unfair flack from people unable to adapt to change, when it is actually the most unique Looney Tunes series.
There have been other Looney Tunes cartoons that change the tone, such as a mediocre preschool cartoon and an absolutely dreadful action cartoon. However, WB finally managed to nail it here.
For all of the changes to the characters, they are still recognizable as themselves and manage to be hilarious as a result. The only character who was changed wholesale was Lola, and that's a blessing because her original incarnation was a Mary Sue with no real personality (yet another reason why Space Jam sucked). Here, she's crazy, hyperactive, and probably the funniest character on the show (and considering how hilarious Daffy is, that says a lot).
The humor is sharp, funny, and on point despite the lack of slapstick. Daffy's stupidity, Lola's craziness, Bugs' sarcasm, etc. Make them all comedic gold mines. Much like The Amazing World of Gumball (which, coincidentally, premiered on the same day), the show has a knack for turning even the most tired of sitcom clichés into something worth watching. Also, the show has romantic elements that don't work to its detriment, unlike the later episodes of Regular Show.
The show isn't flawless, though. The Roadrunner segments, much like the Rudy Larriva-directed shorts, are not faithful to the original Chuck Jones-directed shorts. Also, Daffy's mistreatment of Porky is sometimes pretty hard to watch ("The Float" being a particularly bad example). Furthermore, perfectly good characters like Marvin the Martian and Pete Puma were heavily underused, especially during Season 2.
However, the pros outweigh the cons enough that it still earns a good 10/10. The only Looney Tunes continuation better than it is HBO Max's Looney Tunes Cartoons.

What are y'all frowning about? y'all like gumball but dont like this? this show is pretty much it. it's not always about setting up a trap or a trap twist to have laughs at. sure it is what makes the looney tunes brand but also the way how their personalities work on this show is cohesive and makes up for it. it's new, it's different, it's innovative, it's modern, it's aimed at teens and pre teens and pretty sure it appeals to some of the adults with the personality stereotypes it has and its genius well put together written script and puns. also they dont animate them like this anymore.
It's hard to remake a classic, so don't! This could of been horrible however they did a great job of making it their own! Keep an open mind and you'll love

First off, this is a really good cartoon. Looney Tunes or not. The Looney Tunes live in the real world and live among regular people. Bugs Bunny has a house, his roommate Daffy Duck, his neighbor Yosemite Sam, and he some-what girlfriend Lola. It plays out like a sitcom, but a good one. The jokes are funny, it's very entertaining, and the characters feel real. However, not everyone will like this. The Looney Tunes Show isn't supposed to be a laugh out loud comedy. I would consider the jokes more like the game Portal or the movie Hot Fuzz. It's not supposed to make you laugh like crazy, and in the end, the show is better. Watch the originals and notice how long each episode is, about 6-12 minutes the most. You can't have laugh out loud jokes go on for almost half an hour, which is why Regular Show and Mad are only about 11 minutes. Then watch a funny sitcom like the King of Queens, Seinfeld, Everybody loves Raymond, or Yes, Dear. There are funny, but not laugh out loud funny,
But how to the characters match up? Well, every character is interesting and every character has character. Personally, I think the characters that did change were for the better. Witch Hazel isn't a psychopathic witch, but the mother or a monster. This allows the character to open more and be more interesting, even if you don't think so. Gossamer is now an 8-year child. I was a little skeptical first, but once you remember that Gossamer was originally a monster, you soon realize that character doesn't work so well in a sitcom. Finally, Lola Bunny. Give her the voice of Kristen Wiig from Saturday Night Live, and you get a character that's fun to watch. She talks miles of dialogue at a time and at points made me laugh so much I had to rewatch to hear the joke again. Now, not every character will appeal to everybody, but from what they have, it's really good.
But faithful is it to the originals? Honestly, not really. If the only reason you wanted to watch this cartoon was because you really liked the originals and was hoping for the something similar, you won't like it. Look at the new Rambo movie, the new Rocky movie, Duke Nukem Forever, Indiana Jones, and the Expendables. Things that would be really cool back then, won't necessarily be good now. If the general public today who never heard who the Looney Tunes were would watch an episode of the originals against the newer version, the newer version would be the better.
Don't go into this cartoon hoping for something faithful. Go into it hoping to find something entertaining. You might end up liking this if you gave it a try.

Like almost every American citizen, I grew up with the classic Bugs Bunny and the Looney Tunes. Now we get this show, almost all the characters had changed, which depends on who u're talking about. Bugs Bunny is still the smartest of the tunes, he didn't change much, which I did like, like the old cartoons, I still like that wabbit the best. The jokes are laughable in today's standards and Bugs is as funny as ever. However, there is some criticism I give to this. The worst part is the change of the personality of Daffy Duck, still he's selfish and greedy, but what happened to the duck who would do anything to steal the spotlight from Bugs Bunny himself? Instead he's a dimwit just like his early incarnations and I hate that. All in all, the Looney Tunes Show is entertaining if u're just looking for a good show to watch, but if u expect something like the classics Looney Tunes, then this is not for u.

It had been a while since I had last seen a well produced, well written, and well drawn cartoon dating from this century. This show, while very different from the original Looney Tunes is very entertaining. The dialogs are extremely well written, the voices excellent and I found myself laughing many times. This is not the original Looney Tunes but that isn't necessarily a bad thing, because it still manages to stay witty and extremely funny. The only element of the show that I don't particularly like is the CGI Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner shorts. These should be even shorter. Otherwise, the show is pretty much flawless.
This show has been getting a lot of mixed reviews lately. Some love it for looking at the characters from a new perspective, others pan it for wrecking their childhood. I belong to the latter group as it happens because this quite a good show. The actions less wacky and more Sitcom-like because thats the direction Warner Bros. wanted to take I guess (It may be that the shock of faliure of their last Movie Looney Tunes: Back in Action rattled the studi exectives to the point that they redesinged the characters in deperation). but don't steer clear of this show just because of that, it might not be laugh-out-loud funny or slapstick but it's still funny. I'd say it was hit and miss funny.
I'd compare it's laid-back humor to Regular-Show. laid-back and witty humour to the kind that you see on another CN show Regular show. We have some great stories that are perfect for the modern day Looney Tunes and audience. Humor is sharp and slightly more mature than previous toons. And I've gotta say it's quite funny to see Daffy Duck try to look cool with over-the-top lies and stories and ultimately failing.
Bugs and Daffy haven't changed much of course although Daffy is shown to be more brain-dead than scheming in this incarnation. Still though show is good with half-solid humour, catchy songs from the Merrie Melodies section, and awesome Roadrunner and Wile.E.Cyote cartoons so I'm asking you stop being a maroon and give this show a go!

The Looney Tunes Show is not only one of the most underrated series of the last decade, but also the most funniest Looney Tunes reboot. It has really clever writing that brings the Looney Tunes characters to the real world. The animation is nice. The characters are enjoyable both old and new. The commentary on real world issues is engaging. And especially the comedy. I have been laughing so hard for most of the series, mostly from Daffy's antics. I wish the series hadn't ended too soon and last one more season to have a proper conclusion, but at least I can forgive it during those two seasons. Oh and by the way, the series would show us a couple of short segments in both the middle and the end of each episode, Merrie Melodies and Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote. Merrie Melodies do contain musical numbers, and they stay almost true to the spirit of the Looney Tunes characters we all know and love. As for Roadrunner and Wile E. Coyote, the animation in that can be dated. But even that sticks to the spirit to those cartoons. If you need to at least watch a sitcom that's not from Disney Channel or Nickelodeon, this is an excellent option (or at least a cartoon sitcom if you'd like to call it). While the series could've lasted one more season, it is still a really underrated series.

When I started watching this show I didn't expect much, but what I got was one of the funnier shows I've seen recently. After seeing the rather lackluster revivals in movies like Space Jam and Looney Tunes Back in Action, I had gotten used to the idea that the Looney Tunes would no longer be funny because they just cheaply rip off the old cartoons, and try to overcome us with zaniness. Here the characters are reinvented as a sitcom, so there's no classical style music and wild chases. It features Bugs and Daffy as roommates in a house. Daffy is funnier than ever in his over-dramatic tirades of jerkness. Bugs is also funny as an overly reasonable and easygoing guy. Porky Pig plays a lovable schlub. And they created a new and very funny character in Lola Bunny, an obsessive and silly sort-of-girlfriend of Bugs.
One story that comes to mind is when Daffy gets ridiculously upset when he thinks Porky ate his french fries, but Porky thought they were for the table, and this small infraction leads Daffy to take drastic measures. Another funny thing I recall is that Daffy drives a parade float of himself as a vehicle so he can get attention, and becomes a hazard on the road. One part of the show I usually just skip is the CG shorts of Wiley Coyote/Roadrunner, which repeat the old falling off a cliff gag over and again.
I wanted to write this review because I was surprised at the outpouring of hatred by some reviewers. It seems like some people just want the old "duck season, wabbit season" jokes repeated fifty years after it was funny. I think this is a worthy addition to the Looney Tunes legacy.

For someone who used to purchase every bugs VHS that was ever made🤣😂 I was really excited about this. However, the reason I loved bugs was because of his sarcasm and don't put up with nothing attitude. It's not here. On this show he's a classic pushover, easily manipulated. Not the bugs I used to watch😭. Then porky pig is just horrible!! He went from hunting daffy to his main pushover his weakness and patheticness is off the chart annoying. Daffy is was less clever like he used to be and more mental like a classic narcissist. That was somewhat funny because we all deal with those so to watch that character be made fun of was entertaining. Don't hate the show, still watch it. Only wish some of their original characters existed.

The original Looney Tunes had a whole set of recognizable elements that made them work. Physical comedy, action, a sweet soundtrack that underlined every move. The setting changed from one short sketch to the other, moving across the world and time periods.
It could be argued that they already threaded this path, that a change was needed to keep it fresh. Sure, why not.
But please, anything but a sitcom setting! The jokes, mostly contained in the dialogue, fall flat and the situations are all from the bag of rotting sitcom tropes. That is neither new or fresh by any standard. That is the most overused formula on TV, and it makes everything predictable and dull.

First I'd like to state I'm a huge fan of the Golden Age of Cartoons, particularly Warner Bros. and Walter Lantz (Woody Woodpecker) studios. I've purchased all of the Golden Collection DVD's and both PLatinum Collection Blue Ray releases. That being said, I LOVE this update. We all should realize that nobody will EVER be able to come close to the genius of the originals. Those cartoons were created in a completely different time under completely different circumstances with completely different artists. If they tried to rehash the old style it just wouldn't work...
So...they did the smartest thing they could have which is to reset the franchise into a modern, sitcom style while paying homage to the original characters and the original spirit. If you read every venom-spewing review here you'll notice one common denominator: everyone complains that the new show is "different" than the original. I would bet my house that if the show tried to rehash the past and recreate the old style, these SAME haters wouldn't like it either. Well you can't please everyone and judging by the ratings more than enough of us "get it". I for one love Daffy's character and I really like the way Porky is wishy washy...Lola Bunny is hysterical and Foghorn's character update fits his classic persona, only updated for modern times.
Bravo! Now, when will we see a new episode? We've been stuck on Episode 10 of season 2 since Mid-December...
