What do YOU think is the looniest running gag? Let us know below, and be sure to also check out our video of the Top 20 Funniest Nickelodeon TV Running Gags - ruclips.net/video/LKUOv9C1Frs/видео.html
My favorite "single episode" running gag of the Coyote/Road Runner series is from "Lickety Splat", where Coyote launches the explosive darts from a balloon. Of course, none of the darts actually hit Road Runner, but they proceed to foil every one of Coyote's subsequent attempts to catch him throughout the rest of the cartoon.
I and my eldest nephew watched a particular Elmer Fudd 'toon about hunting with a dog where a TV show talks the dog into thinking Fudd's going to do him in. That was decades ago, but still any time the notion of putting an unloved animal down can be raised one of us can crack the other up with "Heah Wovah, lets go hunting!" But I guess that's not really a LT running gag, but a family one.
I love how a lot of these running gags were invented specifically by Looney Tunes characters! And that no character in other cartoons could ever pull off these iconic running gags like the Looney Tunes characters did!!!
@@Donathon-qx8kq That was in one cartoon, Hare Breadth Hurry in 1964. Chuck Jones' premise for the cartoon was to provide a running commentary on Coyote's efforts to catch Road Runner (such as Bugs' remark "It's amazing what this joker will go through to get a square meal) without violating the cardinal rule (pardon the pun) that, other than saying "Meep Meep", the Road Runner must never speak. Not top performances by either Bugs or Coyote, but I've always considered the cartoon to be underrated.
I'm actually working on a playlist in Plex right now full of classic Saturday Morning Cartoons that I can queue up every saturday with a bowl of cereal and relive the good ole days. Oh man. Kids these days don't know how amazing Saturday mornings were lmao
They age like fine wine. As a child, you enjoy the hairbrain antics of the characters and stories. As a cultured and educated adult, you rewatch them and appreciate the literary and cultural qualities of the shorts and recognize a whole new level of comedy you missed as a child. I have always been fascinated with how incredibly deep the stories are. I have never seen another form of media where you can rewatch it later in life and find a whole new appreciation for the things you missed as a kid,
@@rricci I've got you beat. I'm 63, and I still think those Warner Brothers cartoons I used to watch when I was a kid were great. I occasionally watch them on RUclips. I would watch them on that Boomerang cable channel, but with most of the cartoons they show, you have to pay extra for them. The only cartoon I was allowed to watch for free was the Bugs Bunny film "8 Ball Bunny." (1950) That's the one where Bugs tries to help the lost penguin find his way to the South Pole, only to discover that the little "boid (bird) in a tuxedo" was actually born in Hoboken, New Jersey. ("HOBOKEN? OOHH, I'M DYING AGAIN!") I liked the running gag where a caricature of Humphrey Bogart shows up out of nowhere and asks, "Pardon me, but can you help out a fellow American who's down on his luck?" (I think he said that line in the movie "The Treasure of the Sierra Madre" from 1948.)
Then there was always Ralph the "Wolf" (who looked like Wile E Coyote) and Sam the Sheepdog that would punch in and out of work in their episodes and the perpetually pilot Goofy Gophers that acted like a mischievous version of the Baldwin sisters from The Waltons! Haha!
And why they are Superior to the Disney characters of the same era, the Looney Tunes can make anyone laugh and they are pretty much timeless characters
@@ShosuCeladon He did. He was that dedicated to getting the sound just right. I actually heard he was allergic to carrots, but that may have been apocryphal. You'd think he could use celery, but nope. He had to have it juuuuuust right.
I'm 83 - grew up on these, still love them, especially the opera parodies. The Wagner take-offs are hysterical, and after all these years, they still hold up. Thanks for this compilation.
my guess its because of what type of shows it is. loonytones is towards kids (well all ages realy but you know what i mean) family guy is aimed towards a mutch older audience
I always loved how Marvin the Martian got, "Very angry! Very angry indeed!" My all-time favorite line from Porky Pig wasn't a catchphrase or a running gag, but it was still a great line. That was when he was sidekick to "Dripalong Daffy" (an obvious spoof of Hopalong Cassidy, played by - who else? - Daffy Duck). Porky ends up being the hero, and he gets appointed as the new sheriff. Daffy is made a street cleaner, and at the end of the cartoon, he looks at the screen and says, "I told you I'd clean up this one-horse town!" Porky adds, "Lucky for him it is a one-horse town!"
As for Taz, cannot express my disappointment why, decades ago, I was browsing the World Book Encyclopedia and saw what an ACTUAL Tasmanian Devil looks like.
Foghorn Leghorn HILARIOUS. Almost all these creations are. You know, watching this, it's easy to see how greatly cartoons have declined. What's out today compares in no way, shape, or form. As for Pepe and some other characters...alas, the PC crowd and modern day (over)sensitivity have ruined many things...
The original looney tune cartoons were shown in theaters before the movie. They were designed for a general audience. Kids loved the fun... Adults got the inside jokes. Then, it all went to garbage. Still watching the old ones gives me a nostalgic warm happy feeling.
There were even some adult themes depicted like smoking, gambling, drinking, etc. During the New Deal a lot of cartoons taught the audience about the economy, business and capital investment.
The Looney Tunes cartoons were one of my favorite childhood cartoon’s series I loved watching growing up and still love watching them today and the shows many gag’s are still as hilarious and timeless today as they were back in the day 👍❤️😂
I grew up on Looney Tunes. They're like old friends (and I don't care what the woke crowd says, Pepe's great). When I was writing my first book, a vampire novel, I needed to amuse my 105 year old, never seen TV main female character. She discovers it when she stays with a new friend and what does she first see? Rabbit Fire. Yes, Rabbit Season, Duck Season made her laugh so hard that the lady got her a video of the iconic rabbit and duck for her very own. It was an homage to my childhood and how much delight I took in the cartoons (and still do at 66).
@@martyklestadt6766 No, they actually ran out of rock tablets to inscribe more information on. When they tried to order another shipment, they found out that the manufacturer had reduced the quality of the product.

..."What's Opera, Doc?" has to be the best cartoon ever; three great directors (Jones, Maltese, and Noble), original score by Wagner (mostly from Tannhauser), six times the normal budget, and every trope you want: Bugs v Elmer, a send up of Disney's Fantasia, Opera, Ballet, and Wagner himself; masterpiece!
Little trivia in case it hasn't been mentioned: Foghorn Leghorn was based on Sen. Beauregard Claghorn, a character on "Allen's Alley," a radio comedy show in the late 1940s.
The Warner's writers parodied that connection in Rebel Rabbit, in the scene where Bugs interrupts the Senator's speech. Senator: That low down good for nothing hare must die!" Bugs (who pops out of the Senator's hat): "Hare? Die? Hair Dye! That's a joke son!"
One I wish you had added to the honourable mentions would have been "I'll do it, but I'll probably hate myself in the morning." That's something no 5 year old would understand.
Another is a running joke featuring a musical instrument (usually a piano) with a certain key rigged to explode and the mark always playing a certain tune wrong.
Screw the out of touch cartoon hating/reality TV watching Karens who thinks Looney Tunes are for immature little kids, this legendary classic franchise and crown jewel of the Warner Bros Looney Tunes are for everyone both young and old. Ultimately, despite I'm in my 30s I am looking forward to Looney Tunes shorts either Toon In With Me on weekdays and Bugs Bunny and Friends during Saturday Morning Cartoons block on Saturday mornings on MeTV.
9:05 My favorite running gag in all the Looney Tunes franchise, and, the way you introduced it was just hilarious! Happy saturday morning , Rebecca. Take care and God bless you, greetings from Colombia to you as well.
I grew up watching the classic Looney Tunes!! still some of my favorite cartoons ever. I used to watch them every Saturday morning. Saturdays were so much fun when I was a kid getting to watch Looney Tunes, The Flintsones, The Jetson's, Scooby Doo, Huckleberry Hound, Pixie and Dixie, Grape Ape, Pink Panther, Josie and the Pussycats, etc.
One of my favorite memories was attending an opera. It was “The Marriage of Figaro”. During intermission a number of us were milling about in the vestibule discussing this and that when someone brought up Bugs Bunny. A number of people remembered being introduced to classical music and opera through Loony Tunes. There is nothing more amusing than standing around with people in cocktail dresses, suits and tuxes talking about “What’s Opera Doc”. The evening was surreal! It was fantastic!
You enjoyed this voice over more any any other video you've done. And I enjoyed your raspberry mimicry of the best lines of looney tunes. The singing frog has always been one of my favorites.
THOSE ENDEARING YOUNG CHARMS, exploding piano and xylophone gag...that's classic! You gotta love it when the perpetrator loses his composure and gets blown up playing the last note right😂😂😂😂
Amazing video Rebecca from both ms mojo & watch mojo of beloved looney tunes running gags in the hit cartoon,fantastic job. I miss Pepe le Pew his is one of my favourite looney tunes characters ever and I love Sylvester and tweety bird more then Tom & Jerry.
I love Looney Tunes growing up ❤️❤️❤️ It still remains as one of my favourite shows to watch ever and a show that I always crack up to especially with the running gags 😊😁😁
My childhood is best ever i love watching these Looney Tunes cartoons Daffy Duck is my favourite one of all he remind me of myself you are despicable❤😮
I'm 60 and these are the BEST cartoons ever! Loved waking up as a kid on Saturday's eating cereal and watching these, one of my best memories. I wake up before 8AM every Saturday and watch them on ME-TV today...😁
Myself as well. But now Cartoon Network and Boomerang are holding them hostage behind a paywall. I'm not nearly as polite as Yosemite in voicing my deeply hostile feelings for those two piles of ...
This is about all I could think of in one sitting. I'm sorry if there are repeats. "You'll be sorry!" Exploding Cigars Falling Safes Disguises Witch Hazel's/Emma Webster's (Granny) cackle ACME products Pile of Birdseed for Roadrunner Roadrunner/Coyote signage "You're despicable!" Sylvester said it, too. The Canyon Fall (or any fall) Whistle "I will name him 'George' and I will hug him and pat him." Pete Puma "How many lumps do you want?" Foghorn Leghorn keeping his feathers numbered for just such an emergency. Daffy Duck's bill getting blown off in different ways. Sylvester's son Sylvester Jr. is ashamed of his father. Bugs Bunny dressing in drag. Mock Latin or Scientific Names Pie in the face gags are very common including Elmer Fudd hitting Humphrey Bogart "in the face with a coconut custard pie with whipped cream." Celebrity appearances/imitations Ralph Phillips: Daydreaming Boy Daffy Duck's Woohoo! "Which way did he go?" Gremlins' Sabotage Fluttering "B" sound in Duck Tracy "Rub ya out!" and Three Little Pigs Wolf "Blow your house down!" Yosemite Sam "When I say 'Woah!', I mean 'Woah!'" to Dragon and Camel Daffy's bill bending up in Robin Hood Daffy "Oh we're the boys of the chorus. We hope you like our show. We know you're rooting for us, but now we have to go!" "Does your tobacco taste different lately?" Stalin impression Humphrey Bogart's "Can you help a fellow American that's down on his luck?" Skunk shooting tail scent at dog like a machine gun. Bugs and Daffy singing real and made up songs. Raymond Scott's song Powerhouse Rube Goldberg Machines and Conveyor Belts Cliff Friend and Dave Franklin The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down
When my son was little, he used to say, "Now Mommy, you're gonna be the cat and I'm gonna be the Tweety bird, and you chase me!" and off he would run. (Or if he'd been watching "Tom & Jerry", then he'd be the mouse.)
My dad would always sit and watch Looney Toons with me when i was watching them on Saturday mornings. He'd point out clever things and explain jokes that i didn't understand because they were about World War II or something from the past. He always talked about how good the animation was and how clever the jokes were. I have a special place in my heart for Looney Toons because i shared it with my Dad.
How many kids asked their parents what "4F" meant? Another little understood joke was a character turning into a shoe heel after realising they acted like a jerk.
Bugs looking directly into the camera and saying "Of course you realize, this means war." It doesn't matter how many times I've seen it, it's funny every single time.
4:00 in the underrated 2005 Christmas special Bah Humduck you actually get to directly contrast Pepe with the more Trumpish Daffy (as a Scrooge type) barage the same target with very insulting offensive words and instead of running away like with Pepe Daffy gets deservedly pummeled comically
I know this might be off topic but apparently back when the Guardians of the Galaxy animated show was coming out in the middle of this marvel team's popularity skyrocketing, James Arnold Taylor voiced Youndu in the animated show and he gave the blue ravenger a voice persona similarly to foghorn Leghorn's. 😂😂😂
Here's what I think for Pepe: Make him an antagonist. Change the perspective to that of Penelope. Make the shorts about Penelope having to outsmart this stalker with classic Looney Tunes tricks.
Mel Blanc was allergic to carrots. He tried crunching on other vegetables to get that chewing sound, like celery, but it just wasn't the same. He had a tub next to him in the recording studio to spit the carrots into.
I was born in 1957 and still enjoy the humor of these cartoons. I think would come on before the feature movie in drive in theaters. My mom's favorite was when Yosemite Sam said to his camel (he would call his camel a hump backed mule), "When I say whoa, I mean whoa!", and "Great honey toads, who put footy prints all over my desert." (1955)
Perhaps could have included the classic piano gag. Where Yosemite Sam or Daffy Duck attempts to get Bugs to play the tune from 'Those Endearing Young Charms' but deliberately misses the white key which is connected to the bomb. With Sam or Daffy shouting ''No, no, that's not it, play it again''. With the inevitable result of an explosion when THEY play the tune correctly!
The 1954 short Design for Leaving is my ultimate favorite cartoon. Salesman Daffy Duck trying to sell Elmer Fudd the futuristic push button home. Flying by in the helicopter to offer to sell Elmer the small blue button to get him down is priceless! And typical salesman fashion of selling techniques. 🤣
Love that cartoon. A lot of the gadgets had glitches or were poorly thought out in their design. Only Daffy would think it was a good idea to bring the upstairs down to ground level instead of installing a proper elevator. Is the Alcatraz Ascot an actual method of tying a necktie?

I always liked it when Coyote drew tunnels or roads on a wall and Roadrunner would run through them. Then Coyote would try the same and fail.
Elmer trying to get rid of the dog he picked up on the side of the road Elmer ends up getting thrown out instead or was it porky that happened too
My favorite is Bugs saying, “This means war.” Anytime Bugs utters that, you know he’s about to let the other part have it!
To be precise, the full line was " OF COURSE you know, this means war!"
Also, "Of course, you realise this means war!"
@@airbendingeagle2358
I think that line was originally said by Groucho Marx in the film, "Duck Soup" (1933).
It's the "Of course, you realize..." That made this such a classic line.
My favorite version of this line is when Bugs says, "You realize this will not go unchallenged."
Daffy Duck always getting decimated mainly during "Rabbit" Sesaon is very epic and Loony.
Duck season!
The best😂
I love how a lot of these running gags were invented specifically by Looney Tunes characters! And that no character in other cartoons could ever pull off these iconic running gags like the Looney Tunes characters did!!!
Lp😊
Very true!
Idk there's a couple later shorts where Bugs takes up Road Runners torment of Coyote... sorta the same gag....
Yea. A lot of hard work and talent! And really good writing!!

You’re not alone in that. And never were.
I’m damn near 50 and I still watch them
Also, Looney Tunes was never made for kids in the first place, why else were there banned shorts?

Bo peep man, lost my sheep
I found it funny that on the clock they were enemies, but once it's quitting time they are still friends.
All of these running gags are one of many reasons why I love Looney Tunes.
And why they are Superior to the Disney characters of the same era, the Looney Tunes can make anyone laugh and they are pretty much timeless characters
Fun fact: Mel Blanc actually hated carrots so much, that he spit it out after saying “Eh, what’s up Doc”!
He didn't actually eat carrots while voicing Bugs right?
@@ShosuCeladon He did. He was that dedicated to getting the sound just right. I actually heard he was allergic to carrots, but that may have been apocryphal. You'd think he could use celery, but nope. He had to have it juuuuuust right.
@@foxfireinferno197 if true that is what you call true dedication
@@foxfireinferno197 They tried other vegetables: celeries, parsnips, even rutabagas. None of them matched the sound a carrot makes when being eaten.
Not only that, but in actuality, rabbits generally don't eat carrots. They just eat the green root part.
These are more catch phrases than running gags but still classics and golden!
I loved the classic Looney Tunes when they did the various operas (The Barber of Saville, Wagners Flight of the Valkyries, etc.)
"Kill the Wabbit' is referenced in 30 Rock - Season 1 Episode 20, and, like Liz Lemon, I have it as my ring tone.

Rabbit season!
Pronoun trouble...every time!!
My friends and I would often randomly quote "Duck Season, Rabbit Season", or "What's Up, Doc?" at each other! 😂
aha! Pronoun trouble
Who else can relate to From Hare to Heir every time they have to be nice to relatives at any family gathering?
"You're despicable..."
Looney Tunes had inspired a lot of cartoon shows.
I love the “THAT’S ALL FOLKS!”
As for Taz, cannot express my disappointment why, decades ago, I was browsing the World Book Encyclopedia and saw what an ACTUAL Tasmanian Devil looks like.
Porky's original voice actor, did have a stutter. Making it even better. The newer ones, have tried to duplicate it.
That's All Folks! Now that is a legendary running gag!

As for Pepe and some other characters...alas, the PC crowd and modern day (over)sensitivity have ruined many things...
And, of course, Michigan J Frog had a cameo near the end of "Spaceballs."
He also was on the cover of Leon Redbone's second album "Off The Track".
Looney Tunes is the first and top cartoon series to notoriously brake the fourth wall. From 1930-today
Yosemite Sam’s swearing is really hilarious! That is totally me if I don’t want to swear in front of children’s.😅🤬
It'd be funnier than taking the Bandit Heeler approach of using "biscuits" as a swear.
Yosemite Sam's "swearing" never to crack me up
Whoa mule
Whoa, camel

You enjoyed this voice over more any any other video you've done. And I enjoyed your raspberry mimicry of the best lines of looney tunes. The singing frog has always been one of my favorites.
THOSE ENDEARING YOUNG CHARMS, exploding piano and xylophone gag...that's classic! You gotta love it when the perpetrator loses his composure and gets blown up playing the last note right😂😂😂😂

I'm 60 and these are the BEST cartoons ever! Loved waking up as a kid on Saturday's eating cereal and watching these, one of my best memories. I wake up before 8AM every Saturday and watch them on ME-TV today...😁
You forgot the abominable snowman's "I will hug him and squeeze him and call him George!"
I grew up on the original cartoons of the 60's. I could not wait for Saturday morning. I'm now 65 and still love theses old classic cartoons
Myself as well. But now Cartoon Network and Boomerang are holding them hostage behind a paywall. I'm not nearly as polite as Yosemite in voicing my deeply hostile feelings for those two piles of ...
Bugs: "And that's the end."
Which only appeared at the end of two cartoons, Baseball Bugs and Hare-Conditioned.

I always love hilarious looney tunes that makes me laugh I watch theses eps since every Saturday morning cartoons
Did anyone ever notice that Henery Hawk’s father had a completely different character design in every cartoon?
The sheep dog and the coyote clocking in and out in every cartoon.
I love that exchange between them: Ralph: Morning, Sam!
Sam: Morning, Ralph! Have a nice day!
When my son was little, he used to say, "Now Mommy, you're gonna be the cat and I'm gonna be the Tweety bird, and you chase me!" and off he would run. (Or if he'd been watching "Tom & Jerry", then he'd be the mouse.)
My dad would always sit and watch Looney Toons with me when i was watching them on Saturday mornings. He'd point out clever things and explain jokes that i didn't understand because they were about World War II or something from the past. He always talked about how good the animation was and how clever the jokes were. I have a special place in my heart for Looney Toons because i shared it with my Dad.
How many kids asked their parents what "4F" meant? Another little understood joke was a character turning into a shoe heel after realising they acted like a jerk.
Bugs looking directly into the camera and saying "Of course you realize, this means war." It doesn't matter how many times I've seen it, it's funny every single time.
4:00 in the underrated 2005 Christmas special Bah Humduck you actually get to directly contrast Pepe with the more Trumpish Daffy (as a Scrooge type) barage the same target with very insulting offensive words and instead of running away like with Pepe Daffy gets deservedly pummeled comically
I know this might be off topic but apparently back when the Guardians of the Galaxy animated show was coming out in the middle of this marvel team's popularity skyrocketing, James Arnold Taylor voiced Youndu in the animated show and he gave the blue ravenger a voice persona similarly to foghorn Leghorn's. 😂😂😂
You are of course talking about the same voice actor that voiced Tidus and Ratchet.
@@JamesDavy2009 yep, that's right lol
Childhood
My father, God rest his soul, absolutely loved Foghorn Leghorn. Few things made him laugh more 😂
Here's what I think for Pepe: Make him an antagonist. Change the perspective to that of Penelope. Make the shorts about Penelope having to outsmart this stalker with classic Looney Tunes tricks.
Not sure how that is much of a change.
@@travissmith2848 In that at least his actions would be potrayed as wrong.
@@juanrisa945get over it
Aww, I love Looney Tunes
The What’s Up Doc I, too, say it to my doctor
Mel Blanc was allergic to carrots. He tried crunching on other vegetables to get that chewing sound, like celery, but it just wasn't the same. He had a tub next to him in the recording studio to spit the carrots into.
Parsnips and rutabagas were other vegetables they tried.
Mel was NOT allergic to carrots, he just didn't particularly like the taste of them. Source: Mel Blanc - as noted in his autobiography.
Lol these are the classic cartoon comedies that never gets old
I was born in 1957 and still enjoy the humor of these cartoons. I think would come on before the feature movie in drive in theaters. My mom's favorite was when Yosemite Sam said to his camel (he would call his camel a hump backed mule), "When I say whoa, I mean whoa!", and "Great honey toads, who put footy prints all over my desert." (1955)
"Dragons is so stupid," or any other ride Yosemite Sam had are my favorites.
I should have turned left at Albuquerque
Another gag. Henery Hawk's never ending quest to get his first chicken.
Rebecca’s voice stuff here is so funny!
Groucho Marx originated " of course you know this means war.
Perhaps could have included the classic piano gag. Where Yosemite Sam or Daffy Duck attempts to get Bugs to play the tune from 'Those Endearing Young Charms' but deliberately misses the white key which is connected to the bomb. With Sam or Daffy shouting ''No, no, that's not it, play it again''. With the inevitable result of an explosion when THEY play the tune correctly!
Even Wile E. Coyote got in on the gag.
The 1954 short Design for Leaving is my ultimate favorite cartoon. Salesman Daffy Duck trying to sell Elmer Fudd the futuristic push button home. Flying by in the helicopter to offer to sell Elmer the small blue button to get him down is priceless! And typical salesman fashion of selling techniques. 🤣
Love that cartoon. A lot of the gadgets had glitches or were poorly thought out in their design. Only Daffy would think it was a good idea to bring the upstairs down to ground level instead of installing a proper elevator. Is the Alcatraz Ascot an actual method of tying a necktie?
What's up Doc, number 1, why am I not surprised?
