I love how it takes four or more people to do what one Blanc used to! :)

I almost think it might've been a better idea to have 'adult' Buster & Babs & company as faculty at Acme Looniversity, teaching an all-new generation of Tiny Toon characters.

Odd to see prominence of Sweetie Bird, who was a fairly minor character on the 1990s show. They introduce her before Hamton and Plucky! :shock: Still no Montana Max nor Elmyra ..who were both name-checked in the original show open.

Shirley McLoon now wears pink eyeglasses, but lost that kooky 'swirly' hairstyle she had, back when. Hopefully, she still has the 'valley girl' accent.

Like, that would be, like, so suuuper! ;)

For all the talk of how "new" this version will be, and the "new" theme, it does all just feel like more of the same of the old one. That’s not a bad thing, but I’m not sensing much of the "new". Then again, why "fix" it, though your adult B&B idea might have been an interesting choice, even if it begs the question of how to reference the marquee names of Bugs and Co. Would he be an old gray hare by now, then? :)

Watched the first five episodes. My thoughts.

Buster acts around the same. Babes kind of but not at the same time. She is now a clean freak and no impersonations yet at all. The brother and sister thing are not just a small plot it's the main plot of the first episode. They really want to drive home they are brother and sister here! No relation joke is dead.

Plucky is more a jerk. One thing about this show is it does have plots that follow into other episodes. Buster and plucky hate each other in the first episode but are starting to turn more friend like as the episodes go on.

Hamton is now the son of a star as his mom was a classic cartoon star and he is stuck in her shadow and scared he can't measure up to his mom. Not the same mom from the movie.

Sweetie still has a temper but other than that is not like the old version. She is babes best friend now and one of the main characters now.

Dizzy so far is the same.

Shirley is the same minus the valley girl talk. I kind of like this version of her.

Furball voice is nothing like it was and he talks alot more now.

Montana max is still a rich jerk but acts like a popular at school rich jerk also now!

No elmira so far.

Show gives me regular show meets looney tunes show vibes with its collage plots. Nice to see a few rare looney tunes show up. Still no mary jane. Maybe she can make her first animated appearance in this show.

It's not as good as the old show but is not as bad as expected also. So far not a bad start.
