For me, the Looney Tunes world has 6 eras. The "basic" era from 1929 to 1935 (S0, S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, S6), the "classic" era from 1936 to 1939 (S7, S8, S9, S10), the "golden" age from 1940 to 1958 (S11, S12, S13, S14, S15, S16, S17, S18, S19, S20, S21, S22, S23, S24, S25, S26, S27, S28, S29), the "silver" era from 1959 to 1964 (S30, S31, S32, S33, S34 and half of S35), the "strange" era from 1964 to 1969 (second half of S35, S36, S37, S38, S39, S40) and the "afterlife" era from 1970 to present.
I love the basic era, and some episodes are really good there.
I definetely think that the classic era itself is a huge improvement from an already good series.
Let's say: we all love the golden age. This is what we think of when someone says Looney Tunes.
The silver era is sure likeable and interesting.
I personally can stand the strange era, but I understand who doesn't.
The afterlife era is basically a bunch of movies, spin-offs, specials and modern shorts. And now I will talk about it's first 10 years. (S41-S50)
Actually, some of the things here started in the 60s and sadly some ended in the 60s too, so I must mentoin The Porky Pig show what I would place high on this list, if it would be in the 70s, because it had good cartoons and a catchy theme song. Some great shows missed this list. Really, I respect The Daffy Duck Show and the Sylvester and Tweety Show.
10. Bugs Bunny: Superstar 1975
A fun documentary movie, I can't place it higher, because I don't like reality as much as fiction. But of documentaries, this one is great, because it's 'bout good ol' Looney Tunes.
9. How Bugs Bunny Won the West 1978
It's all reused content, what we can still love, even though I like original content better. Even some golden age episodes had reused content. This one has the live-action sneces with Denver Pyle on its side, and I also like western.
8. Bugs Bunny in Space 1977
Reused content again. Sci-fis are awesome and I like watching this one.
7. The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner movie 1979
A fun movie with great wraparounds as original content.
6. The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner hour seasons 1975-1979
Most of the show's content that aren't classis cartoons, are from The Bugs Bunny Show, but I rather watch a hour of Looney Tunes than only a half.
5. The Road Runner Show season 3 1971-1972
Enjoyable show, with not much new content, but it does have a good structure of segments.
4. The Bugs Bunny Show season 3 1971-1972
I ranked it higher than the hour show, because it has got lotsa' original content and I like to see new things.
3. Carnival of the Animals 1976
When it comes to music in Looney Tunes, it's often great, cartoony and the story follows the rythim of the music. This almost live-action wonder is just really-really there.
2. Bugs Bunny's Looney Christmas Tales 1979
Christmas Looney Tunes, new content? Something that invented Speedy is living with Bugs? Three new shorts can be viewed as one full story? Cool, that's what I call a second.
1. Daffy Duck and Porky Pig Meet the Groovie Goolies
Okay. Everyone saw this from miles away.
end
I lied.
1. A Connecticut Rabbit in King Arthur's Court 1978
Okay, everyone saw it miles away. New content, King Arthur (my name). Only five characters for 20 minutes with Porky and Bugs being friends. I ship them.
