I was watching Saturday morning cartoons today. Here is what I discovered: Loonatics Unleashed is awful.
It's some sort of spin-off of Looney Tunes, set in the future. Instead of comic cleverness, the main characters are armed with super powers. Instead of engaging in zany antics, they battle with bad guys.
None of them are very funny, but the quasi-Bugs speaks with a Brooklyn accent and uses some of the Bugs Bunny catch phrases, but then shoots lasers out of his eyes. He also has yellow ears.
Everyone is dressed in matching black spandex.
And this next bit, I'm going to have to use bold text for this next bit:
The quasi-Road Runner talks, and he and the quasi-Wile E. Coyote are friends.
Now that is one ugly pile of poo. A world in which road runners and coyotes are friends, and hunt down bad guys together? No rocket attacks or anvil drops or mile-long falls off of cliffs to the desert below? What's the point of that? What life lessons are kids supposed to get from this?
