Baby Looney Tunes is an American animated television series that shows Looney Tunes characters as toddlers.

The show premiered on WB stations usually before or after Kids' WB! on September 14, 2002. The show is similar to Muppet Babies, with the main characters taken care of by Granny.

The main characters are:

Although not regular characters, the show has also featured toddler versions of Porky Pig, Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, Road Runner, Wile E. Coyote, Foghorn Leghorn, Pepe Le Pew, and Marvin the Martian, usually during musical sequences between stories.

In February of 2005, Cartoon Network ordered 26 new episodes of the show for the new season after a three year hiatus. A new character, Floyd (a teenage babysitter), was added as well, and the animation and plotlines seem most appropriate for older kids and teenagers. {[1]

Trivia

  • The show made a reference to Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope in the episode Cereal Boxing, when Sylvester used the walkie-talkie to communicate with the Baby Daffy Duck (who was leading and started the whole scheme). Sylvester said, "Pussy-cat to Red Leader, over. The coast is clear." over the walkie-talkies. Granny was in the kitchen, and apparently came in just as the babies were finishing the cereal. They hid in the cabinet as the empty cereal boxes, and when the coast was clear, they went away. Granny had let Baby Tweety and Baby Petunia Pig borrow the walkie-talkies to talk to each other in exchange for not using her phone anymore.
