Bugs Bunny Builders: Another Win for Termite Terrace!

[rwinger24 · 9/10 · 25 July 2022]

After the explosive popularity of Looney Tunes Cartoons and a resurgence of brand awareness of the Looney Tunes after Space Jam: A New Legacy, Warner Bros. Animation has found themselves another successful show. Staying true to the franchise has found WB long term success in the modern era.

Within 10 minute episodes, Bugs Bunny Builders putting the Looney Tunes in a preschool format was well executed. It stays faithful to the brand while also aiming for a young audience.

It does its job as a preschool show. And it fits Cartoonito's human-centric curriculum as the show's target audience will learn some essential skills like cooperation, teamwork, dedication, responsibility, and life lessons like compromise, sharing, and consideration all while being fascinated by the process of a construction project and of course the main characters' dynamics and confidence to get the job done.

It improves from Baby Looney Tunes released 20 years ago as the dynamic and style of preschool writing has changed as Bugs Bunny Builders is allowed to be its own thing.

Each episode either takes the Looney Builders (Bugs Bunny, Lola Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, and Tweety) to anywhere in Looneyburg to build all sorts of construction jobs for the citizens or sometimes, for their friends or themselves.

The stories are paced just right. The art direction, character dynamics, and the talented voice cast (Eric Bauza, Bob Bergen, Chandni Parekh, and Jeff Bergman) all stand out. And it feels like a Looney Tunes show with the slapstick, zany antics, and witty humor kept in too.

After the first episodes premiered, it's a solid start. And I look forward to more great stories, wacky designs, and possible more character appearances along the way. This is a show that not only preschoolers/parents would love (probably Kindergarten and 1st grade students too), but also all Looney Tunes fans. Fun for all ages.

Final verdict: An entertaining Looney Tunes show for preschoolers, and eventually everyone, combining classic cartoon humor with essential skills and life lessons making it a job well done.

Now this is how you do a Looney Tunes preschool series

I never thought to see the day that a preschool series w/ the Looney Tunes would be done correctly, but they did it.

Every character stayed true to who they are originally & still maintain the comedic tone of the franchise. This now makes me look forward to how Scooby-Doo and The Mystery Pups will turn out. This joins the ranks of Care Bears: Unlock the Magic and Bing as Cartoonito's best shows.

New Looney Tunes Preschool Show Keeps It Looney

[jeremycrimsonfox · 9/10 · 26 July 2022]

When I saw Baby Looney Tunes, which was Warner Bros.'s first attempt at marketing Bugs Bunny and others to a preschool audience, I hated it for one main reason: it took the Looney out of the Looney Tunes. Sure, slapstick violence is a no-no for the show, but they could have found ways to keep the Looney in without it. Now, we have Bugs Bunny Builders, a preschool that sounds like Bugs Bunny is muscling in on Bob the Builder's territory, but it succeeds on one thing: being educational and keeping the Looney.

This show, airing on Cartoon Network's Cartoonito block as well as HBO Max, says the show teaches imagination and planning and building skills, and it shows. Bugs Bunny leads a team of Looney Builders with Daffy, Porky, Tweety, and Lola, who get jobs to help at Looneyburg. Immediately, the first episode, Splash Zone, proves that Bugs Bunny Builders has kept the Looney aspect, even if it is toned down (Daffy Duck does a lot of the Looney stuff, which makes him the humor of the show, while other Looney Tunes like Foghorn Leghorn, the Tasmanian Devil, and even the Roadrunner make appearances). And best of all, this show proves the Looney element can work without resorting to slapstick violence.

But while it is Looney, the episodes actually teach some good morals, as each episode has one of the Builders getting into a situation and learning a lesson, and the crew always come up with the most imaginative ways to get the job done. This is a great series and a good way to introduce the little ones to these legendary cartoon characters without exposing them to the usual violence.

It's looney enough.

Looney Tunes as a whole is a pretty flexible brand but not in the exact same way Mickey Mouse and friends are to Disney. Looney Tunes were essentially created to be the antithesis of Disney's cartoon characters and were allowed to be edgier and play for more mature audience appeal, in the years that followed Looney Tunes became more geared towards younger viewership, but could still be enjoyed by adults, and the mission statement of presenting the characters as more lively and edgier in comparison to their cleaner counterparts in the marketplace was reinforced...To a point. Warner Bros. In the past has tried on numerous occasions to repackage the Looney Tunes for too specific of audience appeal, and with mixed results. Baby Looney Tunes was intended for preschoolers, but its approach didn't really feel like it complimented the source material. Loonatics Unleashed was aimed squarely at the pre-teen market who would have fondness for animation from overseas, but it was too unfocused and bland. Duck Dodgers and The Looney Tunes Show were admirable reinterpretations aimed for general viewers, even though they lacked the style of lively animation their origins had, but neither lasted too long to keep impact.

Bugs Bunny Builders is another attempt at presenting the Looney Tunes for preschoolers, but this time it actually manages to pull it off successfully and without losing the identity of its cast of characters. Each episode has a message, but it's not overdone to where you think you're watching something on PBS, character personalities are maintained largely, and handling of teachings are about the same in artistic approach as the earlier, more family friendly Merrie Melodies were.

This is dumb

The original had clever one-upmanship. This one isn't clever. The reason why it has good ratings is because parents want their children to watch something they consider safe (a.k.a. Boring and dumb).
