The Looney Tunes Are BACK!
Hey, remember when I very briefly complained about the lack of Looney Tunes on TV? Well, I can shut up now. According to The New York Times, Warner Bros. is getting off their duffs and bringing the Looney Tunes back in full force.

The Looney Tunes Show will star Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck as roommates in a half-hour TV series. Looney Tunes mainstays such as Porky Pig, Yosemite Sam, Sylvester the Cat, and Tweety Bird will be their neighbors. Warner is promising these characters as their regular, classic, Merry Melodies selves. None of that crap like Loonatics Unleashed, folks. It’s Bugs and Daffy as we’ve always known them, except sharing a house instead of burrowing toward Pismo Beach together.
The show starts this Fall on Cartoon Network, and they’ve already commissioned 26 episodes.
In other news, Warner Bros. is also creating a series of short cartoons starring Wile E. Coyote and the Roadrunner. No “roommate” twist. It’s the Coyote chasing the Roadrunner across the desert. There is one thing, though: It’ll be CG-animated.

The shorts will play in movie theatres, attached to several upcoming kids films such as Yogi Bear, the new Cats & Dogs movie, and Legend of the Guardians. They’ll also be in 3D, like everything else these days.
