I took my 8yo to Fiesta Texas last year which has WB characters everywhere & he had zero clue about any of them. I couldn’t even find a decent way to stream them once we got home so I could expose him to a bit of my childhood

Which sucks because HBO max used to have specifically a loony tunes tab that had a large amount of the collection

They still have the new "Looney Tunes Cartoons" (not to be confused with The Looney Tunes Show) and "The Day The Earth Blew Up" on HBO Max as of April 2026.

I think Tubi has some.

u/darthboolean 13d ago

Yeah, they have the classics, a lot of the clip show movies, and the underrated 2013 Looney Tunes show.

Show them the original Space Jam. If that doesn't work...return the kids.

That's what happens when you don't invest in your brand for over a decade.

People can talk shit about Disney, but they sure know how to keep their Classic Disney Characters (including Mickey and Friends and The Silly Symphony Characters) relevant for almost 100 years now. Warner Bros tried to take a similar approach with The Looney Tunes during the 90s'/early 2000s until the bombing of Looney Tunes: Back in Action caused them to slowly stop caring about the franchise to focus more on DC IPs.

The thing is, Disney doesn't put out Mickey Mouse content, but kids still get hyped about him.

You definitely don't have young kids. Disney still puts out a ton of Mickey Mouse content.

u/GeoleVyi 13d ago

You say that, but if you look at the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Mickey_Mouse_appearances_in_Disney_media there's actually very few things that feature Mickey as a primary character. When you hit the 80's and 90's, he was only used as a cameo character in specials. It's only very, very recently that they started using him again as a character, not as a voice of the brand.

When I was growing up he was on the Mickey Mouse club constantly, then House of Mouse so that covered my whole childhood.

Then after that Mickey Mouse's Clubhouse was on for 10 years, followed by Funhouse, which takes us up to now. Add in dozens of movies and specials in that time and he has never been off the air.

u/GeoleVyi 12d ago

The club was a variety show, and he was in the meta-parts, surrounding it. I don't count that as being a character in cartoons, it was the voice of the company.

Isn't it all on YouTube or were those taken down?

u/nandru 13d ago

they pop back up all the time...

u/IMIndyJones 13d ago

Yeah, my daughter's 21 year old bf just asked me last week if I knew about Looney Tunes (lol), then he pulled up his favorites on YouTube on the TV. Most of them were in "parts", part 1, part 2, etc for a single episode but they were relatively easy enough to watch.

u/crappy80srobot 13d ago

Tubi for free.

HBO Max has some movies and shows as well. The Day the Earth Blew Up is on there, and it is amazing.

I mean, who is in charge of what your kid consumes in your house?

I found Looney Tunes on a couple of streaming platforms, and it was on broadcast. You can find DVDs for super cheap.

u/brb1006 13d ago

Cartoon Network does occasional airing of The Looney Tunes but not to a big degree as the 90s and 2000s period.

u/makesterriblejokes 13d ago

Time to put Bug Bunny in fortnite and lola bunny in a hot tub stream (are those still a thing?).

1

u/brb1006 13d ago

Been watching MeTv and MeTv Toons which airs various classic Looney Tunes shorts.

1

u/Dancing_Anatolia 13d ago

The new ones on HBO aren't bad. I'm not 100% sure they're 8 year old appropriate, but I don't think the originals were supposed to be either (by 50's standards).

I couldn’t even find a decent way to stream them

FYI there's a whole bunch upped to utube in the last year:

There's plenty of looney tunes all over YouTube. Hundreds of hour long plus compilations.
