THE LOONEY TUNES SEASON 1 VOLUME 1 dvd review


          Synopsis

In The Looney Tunes Showscreen icons Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck return in this all-new modern comedy series, joined by fan-favorite Looney Tunes characters. Bugs and Daffy haven't changed but their living situation has. Bugs is as brazen, sarcastic and ahead-of-the-game as ever, and Daffy, despite his narcissistic, sociopathic and paranoid tendencies, is Bugs' best friend and seemingly permanent houseguest. No longer confined to seven-minute shorts, their larger-than-life personalities (and egos) offer an irreverent, comical take on our modern world and introduce a whole new realm of possibilities. Now Bugs and Daffy can wreak as much havoc at the grocery store or the DMV as they once did in the forest.

Rounding out the cast are Porky Pig, Lola, Yosemite Sam, Foghorn Leghorn, the Tasmanian Devil, Marvin the Martian, Tweety, Sylvester, Granny, Gossamer and the newest character of the bunch, Daffy's no-nonsense girlfriend, Tina. The series also features Merrie Melodies — animated music videos of original songs spotlighting everyone from Elmer Fudd to Pepe Le Pew — plus all new adventures with the Road Runner and Wile E. Coyote in stunning CG.

The Looney Tunes Show Season 1 Volume 1 brings classic Looney Tunes to a brand-new generation of viewers and, while it stays true to the original cartoon, the look of the characters has been streamlined and updated with cutting-edge animation for a fresh and contemporary feel,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, WHV Executive Director Non-Theatrical Franchise. She added, “These characters have been with us for decades and it’s wonderful to see them continue evolving. We think both classic Looney Tunes aficionados and newer viewers will embrace The Looney Tunes Show. It’s a must-have DVD for anyone who appreciates great animation.”

My Thoughts

I was a huge fan of Looney Tunes when I was a kid and my son loved Space Jam when he was growing up so  had no doubt that my kids would love the newest Looney Tunes show.  Before receiving the dvd, my kids and I had seen an episode of it and they really enjoyed it.  They were really excited to get to watch this dvd.  Overall my whole family loved the dvd and the kids watched it more than once since I opened it.  I Love the fact that I can share a new take on a classic cartoon with my kids.

The dvd was released this past Tuesday and is available at most retailers that sell dvds and is available online at Amazon.com for $9.99.  This is great for the Looney Tune fan and for any kid who has never had the chance to become a Looney Tune fan yet.  Hurry and get your copy today.
