Bugs and Daffy will be roommates in a Cartoon Network series
The studio will release the first 3D short film entitled "Coyote Falls," which will feature the classic characters Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, and will be attached to prints of the summer film Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore, due in theaters on July 30. It was said that Warner Bros. have approved of three new short films, with three more in development. It wasn't said when the second short film would be released, but here's an image from the "Coyote Falls" short that was released by the site.
The shorts will lead up to the brand new TV series on Cartoon Network entitled The Looney Tunes Show, which doesn't have a premiere date lined up as of yet. It was said that the series will feature Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck as roommates, with other characters such as Yosemite Sam, Tweety Bird, Sylvester, Marvin the Martian and Porky Pig as their neighbors.

"One major shift involves the DNA of the wisecracking characters - it's the same as what first made them stars in the 1940s. Bugs, Daffy, Porky and crew for the first time in years will look and behave in a manner that is familiar to adults who grew up on the cartoons. No babies. No punked-out space adventurers.
"We really like the voice and the tone of the show, and the look is just magnificent," said Stuart Snyder, who oversees Cartoon Network as chief operating officer of Turner Broadcasting's kids media division."

I've been wanting to see a T.V. series about Bugs and Daffy being roomates for YEARS. Maybe my wishful thinking is starting to pay off. (tightly closes eyes and chants Peter Jackson-Halo movie over and over)

Man I hope they do well with this comeback, granted it will never truly carry what made it special in the first place but I guess it will be cool just to see all my favorite characters from back in the day again. Plz don't f*ck this up!
