    HBO Max orders Tiny Toon Adventures revival series!
    ---------------------------------------------------
    Cartoon Network and HBO Max are partnering up with
    Amblin Television to return to Acme Acres as the
    platforms have given a two-season straight-to-series
    revival Tiny Toon Adventures entitled Tiny Toons
    Looniversity!

    The half-hour series, which is being showrun by Erin
    Gibson (Throwing Shade podcast), will see Babs,
    Buster Bunny and the rest of the gang following
    their comedic ambitions all the way to Acme
    Looniversity, the esteemed institution of higher
    hijinx learning, where young dreamers become
    professional toons. Here they form long-lasting
    friendships with one another and perfect their
    cartoony craft while studying under the greatest
    cartoon characters in history, the Looney Tunes.

    "Tiny Toons Looniversity will capture all the clever,
    subversive and smart humor that made Tiny Toon
    Adventures such a standout series," Tom Ascheim,
    President of Warner Bros. Global Kids, Young Adults
    and Classics (GKYAC), said in a statement. "Fans old
    and new will love to laugh at and with these
    characters all over again."

    In addition to showrunning, Gibson will co-executive
    produce the series alongside Nate Cash (Adventure
    Time), while Steven Spielberg will executive produce
    with President of Warner Bros. Animation and Cartoon
    Network Studios Sam Register and Amblin Television
    Co-Presidents Justin Falvey and Darrl Frank.

    "For many kids, Tiny Toons was their introduction to
    the world of Looney Tunes and, over time, Buster,
    Babs, Plucky and all the characters grew to be just
    as beloved by an entirely new generation," Register
    said in a statement. "The continuation of our great
    creative partnership with Amblin Television will
    bring these characters back for fans of all ages to
    enjoy."

    "These smart, hilarious and cheeky characters have
    left an indelible impression on the childhoods of so
    many," Frank and Falvey said in a statement. "We're
    thrilled to be able to continue our relationship with
    Warner Bros. Animation, HBO Max and Cartoon Network
    to reimagine the Tiny Toons for new audiences, and we
    know that fans of the original series will be just as
    excited to share the show with their children as they
    will be to revisit a childhood favorite."
