It's no less stupid than a lot of the other stuff that has been made recently, am I getting old or was there once a time where films and TV programs were made to entertain and enlighten people.  noooo:

So HBO are bringing some of the old Warner Bros Looney Toons back for a new show but with a couple of 'minor' changes. Because guns are bad and hurt people Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam can't have them any more, they are however allowed knives, TNT and even a scythe. I'm guessing that the HBO execs somehow managed to miss the crimes being carried out by people carrying sharp stabby cutty things.



Seems far less violent to me... facepalm:

Well they are apparently keeping all the Acme stuff in there so I'd assume so.

I always think about those Corn Flake packets of the 1950s and the baking powder subs (think they revived them once)

I watched Last Dance  on Netflix ...Michael Jordan era of basketball.

Now I am not into basketball at all but thought the series was excellent and intriguing as to that competitive spirit that exists in some.people
