So I’ve been watching a lot of Bugs Bunny. It’s interesting that Looney Tunes was originally created in 1929 by Warner Bros. in order to promote the sale of sheet music and phonograph records but as stars were born with the creation of Porky Pig (1935), Daffy Duck (1937) and Bugs Bunny (1940), the show became so much more. You have to love a kids show that featured loads of violence, suicidal gags, cigarette smoking, and offensive ethnic caricatures. Many episodes are now edited to remove scenes that may involve things such as smoking, drinking alcohol, ingesting pills and dangerous chemicals freely, playing with fire, and abusing animals. My kids will grow up watching Looney Tunes. They’re far less psychotic than teletubbies.
