00:00The Looney Tunes were created by Warner Brothers. In 1930, the first character to join the Looney
00:05Tunes was a little yellow bird called Tweety Bird, but the character that we all know and
00:10love as the leader of the pack. Bugs Bunny didn't actually appear until two years later,
00:14in 1932. Back then, the shorts only had black and white film, so Bugs Bunny's iconic carrot
00:20nose and ears weren't really visible. So Bugs Bunny actually looked more like a brown rabbit
00:24with a big white tail. Throughout the years, the animation style changed many times. But
00:29one thing remained constant. Bugs Bunny's, catchphrase? What's up doc? He would often say
00:34this to annoy Elmer Fudd, who was one of the few characters that could actually shoot and kill
00:38Bugs Bunny. Yup, back in the day, the Looney Tunes were a lot more violent than today's standards.
00:43I mean, you could literally blow up a mountain of TNT with just a small amount of gunpowder.
00:48But as time went on, the violence became less and less, and the Looney Tunes became more slapstick
00:52and more cartoonish. And that's why we still love them today.
