In a new series based on the iconic “Looney Tunes” cartoon, Fudd will no longer chase down Bugs Bunny with his rifle,
The Hill reported.
“Looney Tunes Cartoons,” which premiered on the streaming service HBO Max last week, will still contain the violence that has marked the brand since it debuted for Warner Bros. in 1930,
New York Times reported. The original show featured booby traps, sticks of dynamite, anvils and even bank safes as weapons. Fudd will be chasing Bugs Bunny with a scythe, among other weapons.
The “Looney Tunes" cartoons were originally created to play in theaters before feature films. They moved to television in 1960. Through the years, the cartoons of “Looney Tunes” and its sister animated series, “Merrie Melodies," have been nominated for 22 Academy Awards and have won five Oscars, the
Times reported.
