Spoiler: Synopsis
Now before you dismiss this as some retarded AU fanfiction-type thing, believe me. It's not that. The show has plenty of callbacks to old Looney Tunes shorts. At first, most of the gags aren't physical like in the old shorts, though in more recent episodes that's changed a little. The show is also rated TV-PG (the same as Adventure Time and The Simpsons) so they can get away with a lot more kinds of jokes than a normal kids show would. Check it out. While the first episodes are really really mediocre, I promise you that at the very least it gets more watchable as time goes on.
Here, why not check out the Merrie Melodies so far for yourself? They don't really reflect the show itself, but they give a good feel for the art style it's in and some of them are pretty funny (if not disturbing).
Spoiler: Merrie Melodies
Also, I'm going to get what's probably on your mind out in the open right now. Lola's new personality is more 3-Dimensional and much like an actual "Looney Toon" instead of a fanservicey token-girl. It's up to you to decide which is actually the better character but whatever you think, you have got to admit that 'crazy-stalker' is funnier than 'generic female Bugs Bunny counterpart'.
So yeah. New episodes are every Tuesday on Cartoon Network at 8/7 PM.

I can't watch the bowling episode. I sit down and try to watch it, but I honestly just can't.

Yep. I like the show. Lola's definately been improved (Space Jam. What the hell.) She's crazy as hell, but that's her appeal.
I do not like the new Lola. She's too derpy. I liked her in Space Jam. She was like a sexy Bugs.

Yeah, its only good moments were the name-joke and song about Tweety.

[/b][/color]That...should not be a good thing...in my opinion... Especially since her only other prominent role in all Looney Tunes media was a freakin' BABY.
Besides, Lola shouldn't be your main deciding point on whether or not to watch the show anyway. She's not in every episode (3 out of 13 so far). Yet people have made so much of a big deal about her, that it's really quite astounding. I probably can't convince you or change your preferences, but a character introduced in what was nothing but a movie-long advertisement should not decide whether or not you watch this show.

Most episodes of the Simpsons are TV-PG. You're probably thinking about a few that shouldn't be, right? If I'm guessing correctly, the ones you're thinking of are probably TV-14. But that's all offtopic.

You should read the Looney Tunes comics. Lola actually works well in the Looney Tunes-verse. When I read them, her skit was that she was always trying out a new job. (Like Selvester's is always to catch Tweety, Foghorn Leghorn to abuse the local dog etc)

Hmm. That's more interesting I guess, nobody really fills that role in this universe...

Lola doesn't really affect my opinion on the show. I haven't even seen the episodes she was in, just the commercials. Every time the show comes on, it always ends up being the first episode, the episode where Daffy was Foghorn Leghorn in a movie, and the bowling episode.
That's weird. Besides the bowling episode, I haven't seen those other two on at all except for when they were new...

I dunno, to me the classic shorts are only funny sometimes. Only the really famous ones are actually worth watching. Some of the lower-profile ones aren't famous for a reason. I guess there's also a nostalgia value to it but that really doesn't mean anything to me. Don't get me wrong, the old shorts are good sometimes. They get in a few slapstick bits, familiar characters, and short jokes in. And yet the new show has all that stuff too so I don't see what the big deal is.

They only have three good shows now-a-days.
This is one of them.
I don't like how they gave Daffy a love interest (who's actually a main character at that) nor do I like how they kinda hurt the tradition of Bugs always coming out on top, but aside from that, they did a good job incorporating many of the characters into a suburbian neighborhood, and made the funny moments quite hilarious. I'd say the show gets a 4.5/5 from me.
Thanks to PandaPrinzessin for the amazing signature.

I was disappointed because they didn't make the "I knew I shoulda taken that left turn at Albuquerque! " joke
And what really bugs is the huge kawaii-chibi heads and small bodies they gave them, it's kinda annoying.
My mom came and asked if they were kids or babies.

Their bodies aren't normally proportioned?

Yup. It was very relatable too, I know exactly what it's like taking that written test...
