In ''Space Jam'', Lola is both a confident ActionGirl whose basketball skills impress UsefulNotes/MichaelJordan and a seductive, scantily-clad MsFanservice who is [[AllMenArePerverts lusted after]] by several of the male toons, especially Bugs, who quickly makes her his LoveInterest. She proved divisive with fans: some enjoyed her strong, sassy YouGoGirl personality; others complained that she was too overly sexualized, a bit [[FlatCharacter flat]], and too ImmuneToSlapstick to fit in with the other Looney Tunes.

After a few years of [[DemotedToExtra blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameos]], Lola's next major animated role was ''WesternAnimation/BabyLooneyTunes'', in which she was a budding athlete who was also [[WomenAreWiser the smartest and most sensible]] of the kids. Meanwhile, some fans followed the adult Lola's appearances in the ''ComicBook/LooneyTunes'' ComicBookAdaptation from {{Creator/DC|Comics}}, where she began to make Bugs' RascallyRabbit and KarmicTrickster traits her own. Lola's next appearance (sort of) was ''WesternAnimation/LoonaticsUnleashed'', an infamous ''Looney Tunes'' SpinOff in which futuristic descendants of the original cast (including Lola's equivalent, Lexi Bunny) became {{Animesque}} {{Superhero}}es with DarkerAndEdgier character designs.

Lola's next project gave the blond bunny her biggest makeover yet. In the AnimatedSitcom ''WesternAnimation/TheLooneyTunesShow'', she's a scatterbrained CloudCuckoolander[=/=]TalkativeLoon who has a crush on Bugs, reversing their relationship in ''Space Jam''. These changes made Lola the object of controversy yet again; fans of the original version disliked her [[TheDitz ditzy]] new personality, while those who welcomed the changes praised this version of Lola for being a full-fledged character rather than a lust object. There were even some viewers who [[TakeAThirdOption loved both Lolas for what they were]].

Lola then got her first starring role in the DirectToVideo feature ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunesRabbitsRun'', a StealthSequel to ''The Looney Tunes Show'' which inserts those versions of the characters into an epic storyline. She's a GeniusDitz who accidentally creates a perfume that makes people [[{{Invisibility}} invisible]], then is pursued (along with her new friend Bugs) by various factions who want the formula.

* OfficialCouple: With WesternAnimation/BugsBunny in most of her appearances. Subverted in ''Space Jam: A New Legacy'' given that their relationship is now portrayed as platonic rather than romantic, with a dynamic that's more or less closer to LikeBrotherAndSister. [[spoiler: Later, when Bugs is near-death after sacrificing himself to help win the game, Lola cradles him in a fashion that's identical to when he saved her from being squashed by a Monstar. The only difference this time is that they don't kiss.]]
