Tiny Toons is making a big comeback and has a new theme song. At San Diego Comic-Con on Friday, Tiny Toons Looniversity released the official theme song of the upcoming animated series which debuts this fall on the Cartoon Network and Max. The song is similar to Tiny Toon Adventures but leans more towards the Looniversity, which is the focus of the rebooted series.
As the synopsis states, Tiny Toons Looniversity is a “half-hour animated comedy series from Amblin Television in association with Warner Bros. Animation. Rebooting the classic Tiny Toon Adventures show for a new generation, the series follows Babs, Buster, and their new friends Hamton, Plucky and Sweetie to Acme Looniversity, the premier institution of higher hijinks learning. While enrolled, they form long-lasting friendships and perfect their cartoony craft while studying under the greatest cartoon characters in history, the Looney Tunes.”
