The Junkyard Run is a 2001 trilogy of webtoons from Looney Tunes that features Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Sylvester Cat, Yosemite Sam and the Tasmanian Devil as they race as a part of the Burbank To Vegas Desert Rally to win the coveted golden anvil.


Contains examples of:

  • Brick Joke: Early into the second episode, Elmer Fudd is seen standing at the roadside, before the force of the passing vehicles drag his clothes away. Later in the episode, he shows up as a traffic officer, pulling Sam and Taz over for speeding.
  • The Cameo: Tweety Bird appears in the third episode.
  • Disguised in Drag: Sam and Taz use this routine when Elmer pulls them over.
  • Eat the Bomb: Yosemite Sam licks an explosive popsicle.
  • Elvis Impersonator: Sylvester and Porky meet one at a Las Vegas chapel.
    Elvis Impersonator: By the power vested in me, I pronounce ya... hitched!
  • Fridge Logic: An In-Universe example. "If we are up here, I wonder who won the race down there."
  • Multiple Endings: The second cartoon had two endings.
    • In a Shout-Out to Thelma & Louise, Porky tells Sylvester that he ate the last can of sardines as they fell into the pit.
    • Porky and Sylvester change their car into a helicopter, leaving Bugs and Daffy behind.
      • The Reality Check DVD chose to use both endings, playing one after another with a transition to make it seem like both events happened.
  • No-Sell: As the flames from the helicopter spewed to Bugs, he is unharmed because he has flame retardant fur.
    Bugs: Good thing we professional drivers have flame-retardant fur.
    Daffy: Now he tells me!

  • The Speechless: Sylvester and the aliens are the only characters who don't speak.
