Even season 2 can't save it.
31 March 2024
Remember in the original when the episodes animated by Kennedy Cartoons were deemed atrocious and had to be corrected? Well compared to the static episodes by the current Philippine studio Snipple Animation, they look like Disney in comparison! Because what made Tiny Toon different was that compared to other series they had double the frame count. Now we are returning to even worse frame numbers....

Season 1 main issue was that the episodes were mostly limited within the school.

Season 2 and Spring Break Special at last make a venture outside the school, trying different settings and scripts and approaching the original series adventure element and trying to improve it. Or so I thought.

But alas, instead of trying to change pace for once, they fall into the same repetitive sitcom dialogues reminiscent of other non-LT related series. Of course original Tiny Toons had some sitcom too, but it was not exclusively a sitcom series like this one here!

The Spring Break Special especially was atrocious! There is no Break at all, just the same repetitive dialogues.

Only exception is the glimpse to the siblings family, but 1 good decision can not make up for 10 bad ones.

As if the writers and creators were one dimensional and had no idea to do anything different, which I do not believe is true. Eg the King Tweety movie had not much in common with the classic LT either, especially the atrocious art style, but at least it tried to do something different and kept my interest and had some action and adventure.

I feel that even the worst Tiny Toon Adventures episodes are better than this. Plucky is the exception but even so he can not compare to the original Plucky.

An exception was the space episode but only because they tried to follow the decent Duck Dodgers TV series.

Hope that season 2B is the last one and that they leave this franchise to rest. A pity that Steven Spielberg instead of reminding us that he was a TV animation innovator, surrendered Tiny Toons and Animaniacs to staff that never understood the old LT and WB cartoons.

Because the original producers even grew with Looney Tunes shorts on cinema as kids.
