        well adult watching, kidding aside, obviously doesn’t affect the gun violence depiction question being debated since adult cartoons are way more violent (eg South Park or Rick and morty)

        This sounds about right. I'm 31 and I definitely remember watching it on Cartoon Network as a kid.

        a lot of factors here. In the 90’s, when both Nickelodeon and Cartoon Network were brand new, they didn’t have much original programming, so they would run hours and hours of looney tunes all day, every day. this got pushed out by original programming. WB issues takedowns for YT

        all of Gen X and early millennials were fed a steady diet of looney tunes, as it was the only game in town. These days, you’d have to actively seek them out through dvd/blu-rays, which are even shunned by animation nerds because they were lazy overcompressed transfers
