Animation and Amblin Entertainment. The series follows the adventures of a group of young cartoon characters who attend Acme Looniversity to become the next generation of characters from the Looney Tunes series.
The series originated in the late 1980s as an idea by Warner Bros. Animation president Terry Semel, who proposed a show featuring either young versions or offspring of the original Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies characters.

The project was developed as an animated film for two years before being reworked into a television series. After character design sessions and story meetings, production began in April 1989 and concluded in 1991, with Spielberg approving every production aspect of each episode. The first episode, "The Looney Beginning", aired as a prime-time special on CBS on September 14, 1990. The series subsequently ran in first-run syndication from Septemb
