People hated on Lola for not being "looney" in Space Jam, so why did people excuse Tina being added to The Looney Tunes Show? Literally her entire shtick is being over-worked. Nothing looney about that.
>>
>>78444743

Because all she was was a background character as opposed to Lola who was constantly shoved into our face like she was always there?
>>
>>78444743
there wasn't much "looney" in The looney tunes show, OP.
>>
>>78444743

Because she makes sense as a counter-point to Daffy.

No, that was Chuck Jones letting his hatred of Bob Clampett get the better of him.

Please. TLTS was the first time that Looney characters were finally funny after years.
>>
>>78444866
You can have contrasts to different personality traits.

Bugs's success is a contrast to Daffy's failures, while Tina's work is a contrast to Daffy's laziness.
>>
>>78445067
I'll admit it was the least terrible Looney Tunes adaption in a while, but it was still pretty bad overall. The only legitimately good character was Daffy, everyone else was shit.

Yes, even looney/annoying Lola.
>>
>>78445105
It's because Daffy is the best character.
Compare Wabbit and Duck Dodgers.
>>
i enjoyed the show and i'm a dirty furfag for lola and tina.
>>
>>78444743

I never saw more than clips of this show, but what bothered me was their voices. They just sound like...women? That's it? If you heard someone behind you in a restaurant talking like Yosemite-Fucking-Sam you'd immediately turn around to see what the fuck was going on. You would with nearly any of them. Except these two and their anonymous, plain Jane bullshit.

In the show she is the female bugs bunny.
She is the Yang to Daffy's Yin.

The same way Lola is Yin to Bugses Yang.
>>
>>78445105
Even Daffy was pretty annoying once he settled into his formula of always, always being the most terrible person in a scene and always failing. He's the sort of character you wonder why they even bother getting up in the morning.
>>
Not to mention she's kristen fucking wiig

She wasn't an obnoxious grrl power we-need-more-women addition. She was a perfectly fine foil.

Tina did a far better job of holding onto a normal perspective of things going on around her - she always kept herself grounded with sensible responses. She truly was the only sane one among the four of them.

This is a contrast to Bugs in the sense that he -could- be pushed to the edge before behaving in a more stereotypical Bugs fashion, but it takes a lot more pushin' than in the past to get him there.

It's the degrees of differences between the four characters that makes the show work, but it does work for each in a different way:

1) Tina likes Daffy because despite the fact he's lazy and selfish, he's not really malicious about it. She's okay with Bugs because a) he's normally normal and b) he puts up with Daffy. She's okay with Lola as long as she doesn't take her out of her comfort zone too often.

2) Bugs likes Daffy for the same reason Tina does, but also because of a duty to try and keep him out of trouble. Bugs likes Lola because despite her wacky outlook on life she's a sweet girl and not unattractive. Bugs likes Tina because she's not insane, which makes her a rarity among his friends.

3) Daffy likes Bugs because he puts up with him. Daffy likes Tina because she puts up with him and is a cute girl who likes him as well. Daffy doesn't not like Lola because she usually doesn't bother him too much.

4) Lola likes Bugs because he's a nice guy (and she's a bit crazy). Lola Likes Tina because, hey, gal-pal for her! Lola likes Daffy because she doesn't know any better.
>>
>>78445570
why the fuck do you put so much thought in this shitty show
>>
>>78444743
She dated Daffy. That makes her the most insane character on the show.
>>
>>78445570
>2) Bugs likes Daffy
But he didn't. He always acted as if being around Daffy was torture.

No, LTS sucked because it was bad and Wabbit sucks because it's even worse.

They're both terrible and i just want a funny cartoon, is that too much to ask?

Because a) not everyone shares your opinion about the show, and b) exercising a bit of thought over something is good for the mind.

>>78445635
Bugs likes Daffy despite the fact he's a jerk much of the time. The fact that he doesn't let it poison the relationship shows the value that he places on it.

Daffy and Lola still had better chemistry than Bugs and Lola or Daffy and Tina.

Expectations my friend.

Space Jam Lola was nothing more but a dick tease for furry faggots. When they moved her character into the Looney Tunes Show expecting her to retain the same personality, they were sadly disappointed.

As for Tina who cares, she's a completely new character built from the ground up. The writers could've gave her the personality of a rock and I wouldn't care. The series was made to emulate sitcoms so expect the "Looney" to be dropped.

This isn't your father's Looney Tunes, welcome to the 21st century.

No, they hated her because she had 3 lines and they were all bad and she was duller than dishwater.

This is pretty accurate. I binge watched the show and really like it, but I'm not sure the amount of gold buried under the shit would justify me recommending it to a lot of people.

I'd put the ratio of watchable episodes to boring epidsodes at 1:1 and the ratio of genuinely funny episodes to all others at 1:2-ish. That's alot of crap to sift through.

That's not why people hated SJ Lola. They hated her because she was the token "Grrrl Power" character, with no other redeeming features than her sex appeal.

Tina exists because Bugs and Daffy each want female versions of their best friend.

Tina=Bugs
Lola=Daffy

Bugs and Daffy are practically dating each other given the similarities they share with the ladies. I can't say I'm trying to be funny about it either, the show was kind of blatant about it. The writers aren't stupid, they knew, they thought it was funny.

Can we make this a baffy thread already?

Daffy crossdressed a couple times too.

When he was a flight attendant, that time when he had on a wedding dress for some reason, and as a schoolgirl. Also that time he attempted to look like Tina.

There might have been more than that too.
>>
I was rewatching Space Jam the other day, and Lola was only in a grand total of four scenes:
>the scene where she comes out of nowhere and shows off
>the fanservice scene where she walks onto the court for the first time
>one fairly short scene near the beginning of the basketball game where she shows off against the Mon-stars
>the standard romantic interest scene where Bugs rescues her
It wasn't that she's not Looney, it's that the character was completely useless. She never interacts with the other characters (who aren't Bugs), she rarely speaks during any other scene, and she never really factors into the basketball game in any major way. She was just a character who was completely disconnected from the rest of the film. Watching it now that I'm older, it's painfully obvious that she was added into a very late version of the script.
>>
>>78458649
I disagree Lola's not an asshole on the level of George Costanza and Tina doesn't effortlessly breeze through life.

Their only similarities is that they share the straightman/crazyman dynamic. That's it. It doesn't make them clones, Baffy shippers just claim it does because they want to draw smut.

Also watching SJ I noticed that they often used the HOO-HOO Daffy, both in attitude and design, and he's just more fun that way
