Looney Toons


Looney Toons was one of the first series of cartoons to gain a large amount of popularity from the public. Produced from 1933-1944 by Leon Schlesinger Productions, but then sold to Warner Bros. where production continued until 1963. The cartoons were shown in theaters and were broadcasted on television, surpassing other cartoon and series in popularity. Looney Toons included famous characters such as bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Tweety Bird, Sylvester, and many others. These characters and many more appeared in numerous cartoons that targeted child audiences and kept growing. More recently, the Looney Toons franchise produced a film entitled "Looney Toons Back in Action", which incorporated animated sequences layered with real-time film footage, producing a film with interaction between the real time actors and the animated characters.
