New Looney Tunes, originally called Wabbit: A Looney Tunes Production in its first season, is an American animated television series produced by Warner Bros Animation. It is based on the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of the theatrical shorts that ran from 1930 to 1969. It ran from 2015 to 2020, spanning three seasons across 156 episodes.
After The Looney Tunes Show, which was a sitcom set in the modern day suburbs, the series focuses on Bugs Bunny and company in new comedic shorts that skew closer to the franchise's slapstick humor. Additionally, new characters such as Squeaks the Squirrel were introduced in this series.
The series is followed up by Looney Tunes Cartoons, which was more traditionally formatted than its predecessor.

For season 1, its original theme song was composed by Joshua Funk and changed genres for every episode. For seasons 2 to 3, "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" was carried over from the theatrical shorts, which was originally composed by Carl W. Stalling and written by Cliff Friend and Dave Franklin.
Opening theme lyrics (season 1 only)
Going down the rabbit hole
Where we're going, no one knows
Obstacles round every bend!
Let's see where the tunnel ends!
