History WesternAnimation / TinyToonAdventures

On October 28, 2020, it was announced that a reboot, called ''Tiny Toons Looniversity'', is being produced for Creator/HBOMax and Creator/CartoonNetwork. Spielberg will return as executive producer, with Erin Gibson (of the podcast ''Throwing Shade'') will serve as co-executive producer and showrunner. On November 1, 2020, Creator/CreeSummer revealed Elmyra was not returning. [[https://twitter.com/ofcthismeanspod/status/1550535007348723712 Erin Gibson]] later confirmed on Twitter that the reboot would consist of 30 minute long episodes as opposed to the original shows ThreeShorts format and will be much more character focused, with the cast attending a performing arts school and having to deal with the college life experience. [[https://mobile.twitter.com/Lentendo/status/1550655337824280576 Some promotional art]] for the new show confirmed that much of the core cast would be returning; which, despite what Cree has said, seemingly also include Elmyra.

A revival of sorts for the WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes style of comedy, using [[FunSize fun-sized]], teenage Toons ''highly'' [[{{Expy}} reminiscent]] of several classic characters. But rather than pure rip-offs, they were actually being ''taught'' in school [[ExpyCoexistence by the originals]] on being funny and the finer parts of Cartoon Physics and being a Toon. This continues the proud tradition of Creator/WarnerBros animation having a heavy dose of meta-humor, shtick and LampshadeHanging of many cartoon tropes, but this also incorporated themes of adolescence, Aesops, and [[TheNineties '90s]] sensibilities. It was executive produced by Creator/StevenSpielberg, who, along with [[{{Showrunner}} fellow executive]] Tom Ruegger, thought the ''Looney Tunes'' style was due for a makeover on television after the success of ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit''.

* SlapstickKnowsNoGender: Babs and the gals get it just as bad as the boys.

* SugarWiki/NeedsMoreLove: [invoked]

* SneezeOfDoom:
** Lil' Sneezer's signature trope.
** In "A Quack in the Quarks", Plucky lets out a few of these sneezes himself when he tells Duck Vader he is allergic to goat cheese in order to escape from his DeathTrap.
** At the beginning of "High Toon", Beaky Buzzard's sneeze causes him to [[RoadSignReversal switch the signs leading to AcmeLand and No Man's Land around]], thus leading Buster and Babs to No Man's Land.

* NonMammalMammaries: Many of the female characters, including Margot Mallard, Binky Bunny, Bimbette, and ''particularly'' [[BuxomIsBetter Julie Bruin.]]

The show has reaired in UsefulNotes/{{Russia}} since 2010, "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special" reaired in the UK in December 2011, and the one hour special "Night Ghoulery" on Creator/{{Vortexx}} on October 27, 2012, with a repeat airing a month later on November 24. ''Tiny Toons'' went on to air on Creator/TheHub (now Discovery Family) from July 1, 2013 to June 8, 2015. In 2018, the entire series came to Creator/{{Hulu}} as part of the deal for the streaming service to revive ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs|2020}}'', alongside ''How I Spent My Vacation'' and the ''Night Ghoulery'' and ''Spring Break'' specials.

* InCaseYouForgotWhoWroteIt: "Kon Ducki" begins with: "Plucky Epic Pictures presents: A Pluck Production of a Plucky Duck Film, "The Voyage of Kon Ducki", starring Plucky Duck as Pluck Heyerdahl, a film directed, produced, written, visualized, conceived, choreographed, and catered by Plucky Duck." Oh yeah, and there's a brief mention that Hamton is in the film.

* {{Gainaxing}}: ''Very'' noticeable on Julie Bruin.
** Also the female pigs in the beauty portion of the "Swine Search" program that Hamton's watching in "Fox Trot".

* InformedFlaw: The cast attends the Looniversity in order to learn the basics of being cartoon characters while simultaneously starring in their own cartoon show and having perk filled contracts with Warner Bros.

* ParodyEpisode: "Cinemaniacs" featured three movie spoofs in the form of {{Super|man}}babs, [[Franchise/StarTrek Duck Trek]], and [[Franchise/IndianaJones Pasadena Jones]]. "A Quack in the Quarks" was a Franchise/StarWars parody. "Ducklahoma"... you know.

* TakenForGranite: Happens to Roderick in "The Acme Bowl" after running through and smelling a cloud of Fifi's stink, Hamton in "The Just-us League of Supertoons" after being hit by a blast of Fifi's stink, and Hamton in "Pluck O' the Irish" by a banshee's stare.

* PositiveDiscrimination: Young black female Mary Melody, the only non-villainous human, whose main purpose is to be nice. She wasn't used often or in significant roles, to the point that LampshadeHanging was done when she turned up as one of the hero's Merry Men in a Robin Hood parody: "Another cameo, another paycheck."

* DependingOnTheArtist: Several animation studios worked on the cartoon and it often shows. Creator/KennedyCartoons, in particular, had a tendency to do "squash and stretch" UpToEleven, leading to very polarized opinions (fans calling it energetic, fluid, and bouncy, haters calling it sloppy). They were fired after Season 1.

** In the short, "My Brilliant Revenge" from the episode, "Fox Trot", Plucky is practicing his [[EverythingsLouderWithBagpipes bagpipes]] for the Acme All-Bagpipe band outside Hamton's house. Hamton is trying to watch his favorite show, Swine Search, and can't hear it over Plucky's bagpipes. At first, he politely asks Plucky to stop, but Plucky ignores him and continues practicing. When Hamton misses the entire show, he destroys Plucky's bagpipes in a fit of rage. [[spoiler:At the end of the cartoon, it is revealed that Hamton taped the show...and that he somehow missed Plucky's final musical attack: a tape recording of bagpipes cranked UpToEleven (Plucky ends up setting it off himself).]]

* LiquidAssets: The episode, "Washingtoon" had the A.A.F.C. (standing for Adults Against Funny Cartoons, of course) Chairperson, the main villain of the episode, using a machine to drain cartoon characters of their "tooniness." Buster's tooniness is too strong for the machine, destroying it and returning everyone's tooniness ([[spoiler:Although [[FreakyFridayFlip not all of them to their proper bodies]].]]), including [[spoiler:The A.A.F.C. Chairperson's tooniness, which had been lost many years ago]], and saving Acme Acres.

** Banjo the Possum, introduced in "How I Spent My Summer Vacation," is listed in the credits as Banjo the Woodpile Possum, a reference to the 1979 short film ''Banjo the Woodpile Cat,'' which was animator DonBluth's first independent production after leaving Disney.

* LogoJoke: One sight gag in "The Looney Beginning" and "Her Wacky Highness" featured the classic "[[Creator/WarnerBros WB]] shield" chasing the "Big W" logo from TheSeventies with a large hammer.

* DyingDeclarationOfLove: Played straight in the ''Tiny Toon Adventures'' movie, in which the cast is being pursued on an ''Franchise/IndianaJones''-style minecart ride with a chainsaw wielding psychopath trying to kill them, and Babs and Buster both confess their feelings for one another.

* WhereTheHellIsSpringfield?: Averted, just barely. The segment "Never Too Late to Loon" from the episode Test Stress features Plucky pestering Shirley the Loon to channel Einstein's genius into his brain so he can pass his Cartoon Math test. One sequence has Shirley levitating herself to far-flung locations in an attempt to get away from him, using a map of the United States as a backdrop. This map places Acme Acres in the state of Missouri.

* TastesLikeDiabetes:
** In-universe. The prototype rabbit in "The Looney Beginning".
-->'''Bunny:''' ''(laughs)'' Golly geewiz!! Aren't I the kyu-test thing you ever sae? Uh-huh? I'm sure am! I'll go to your house and I'll live there forever and ever and ever!! And you'll never-ever-ever get tired of me. And i'll go hippity-hop, hippity-hop right in your heart!
-->'''Animator:''' Eeww, that thing will gives people cavities.
-->'''Bunny:''' I love everybody in all the world and I even love being crumpled up being thrown away. (Becomes muffled as animator crumples him and throws away).
** Played straight with the recurring character of Li'l Sneezer. He basically has all the same qualities as the scrapped baby rabbit (including the same voice actress), but this time, he's a mouse.
