New Looney Tunes

New Looney Tunes reintroduces Bugs Bunny and the rest of the Looney Tunes gang in short, fast-paced cartoon segments where classic slapstick meets a slightly fresher tone. Episodes mostly center on Bugs as he outwits rivals like Yosemite Sam, Elmer Fudd, and Daffy Duck, while other characters show up for their own comedic set pieces. The show keeps the gag-heavy format of the originals, with quick setups and physical humor aimed at kids and families, and it balances nostalgia for longtime fans with simpler, modernized jokes for younger viewers. No twists or finales are spoiled here.

The series premiered in 2015, originally under the title Wabbit, and was created by Erik Kuska, Robb Pratt, and Scott Bern. Voice work features Jeff Bergman, Dee Bradley Baker, Bob Bergen, and Fred Tatasciore, stepping into roles made famous by earlier performers.

Critics and audiences gave it a mixed-to-positive reception, reflected in a 7.0/10 average from user votes. Reviewers tended to praise its return to quick, visual comedy and its family-friendly tone, while some longtime fans wanted darker or more elaborate callbacks to the golden age shorts. Overall it reads as a light, accessible reboot that aims to entertain kids without losing the characters' essential personalities.

The show had a clear aim to hand these characters to a new generation, so you’ll find many episodes riffing on familiar routines, from trickster tactics to explosive mishaps. For some viewers it refreshed the Looney Tunes brand, keeping the core slapstick alive, while others compared new vocal performances and updated pacing to the classic cartoons with mixed feelings.

It didn’t collect major industry awards, but it built a steady audience among children and families and helped keep the Looney Tunes franchise active in contemporary animation.
