via Cartoon Network press release:
THE GANG’S ALL HERE!
“The Looney Tunes Show” Returns for a Hilarious Second Season
Season Two Premieres Wednesday, October 3, at 7:30 p.m. ET/PT on Cartoon Network
The fun continues in season two of The Looney Tunes Show, a modern, animated half-hour comedy series from Warner Bros. Animation. Screen icons Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck are still living together on a suburban cul-de-sac and our favorite mismatched roommates hit the ground laughing, along with beloved Looney Tunes characters from the first season, including Porky, Lola, Speedy, Tina and many more.
Bugs is as brazen, sarcastic and ahead-of-the-game as ever and Daffy, despite his narcissistic, sociopathic and paranoid tendencies, is still Bugs’ best friend and permanent houseguest. With their larger-than-life personalities (and egos), this suburban-dwelling duo offers an irreverent and comical take on our modern world, introducing a whole new realm of possibilities for humor and fun. This season, find out what happens when Bugs becomes addicted to Porky’s buttery catering, or when Gossamer turns into a frog after Lola mistakes the Witch’s spell book for a bedtime story. And can Daffy, Lola and Foghorn Leghorn help the town find their holiday spirit during a Christmas heat wave? Special guest stars lending their voices this season include Wendi McLendon-Covey (Bridesmaids), Annie Mumolo (Bridesmaids) and Jim Rash (Community). The laughs continue in the looniest neighborhood on television, along with all-new Merrie Melodies, original songs and music videos featuring your favorite Looney Tunes characters.
CartoonNetwork.com will host a game based on one of last season’s favorite Merrie Melodies. In Daffy Duck’s Behold the Wizard!, help Daffy reach Celestia, the guardian of infinite power. Along the way, he’ll have to use his wizardly abilities to collect magical items and defeat monstrous creatures while navigating an ever-shifting environment of rising and sinking platforms. Behold the Wizard! launches on October 1.
