If the Lola in the new cartoon had been a 100% new character, her character wouldn't bother me at all. But she was so awesomely badass in Space Jam and ... this is such a complete 180 of a character.

[(Anonymous)]

wow, not digging that design at all

[xelestri.livejournal.com]

I have somehow managed to not see the new Lola at all. I really liked her old design a lot more.

[karel]

Not a huge fan either. I liked her in Space Jam because she actually seemed to be a decent character. New!Lola seems like a neurotic female stereotype, and I'm just really not into that, though a few episodes did make me laugh, gotta admit. idk, I feel like I shouldn't mind, because all the characters are cliches, but Lola hits kinda hard.

[dizilla.livejournal.com]

WTF. That's the new Lola?? Wow that's fugly. I totes agree, OP. Just, ew, no.

[somevelvet.livejournal.com]

Actually said it aloud: migawd, what did they do to her?!

[bondlesseye.livejournal.com]

Ew, does the whole cartoon look like that or just her?

[chankaylore.livejournal.com]

God damn, that new design is hideous. It's like her eyes want to rip out your soul or something.

[(Anonymous)]

I have never seen this series, but words cannot desribe how much I hate the left design. Wow.

[hallo-katzchen.livejournal.com]

I thought it was just me. I know people at F!S have said that Space Jam Lola was a cliche, but so is the new Lola. At least the old Lola wasn't a creepy stalker.

[violence4.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I don't even watch this show, but I remember loving her in Space Jam and I was disappointed to hear they'd completely changed her into some needy gf cliche.

[imati-lau.livejournal.com]

Oh God!

You're right the new design is ugly as hell! :(

[jewelia13.livejournal.com]

...AUGH. Whatisthatohnononono... The only "new" incarnation of the Looney Toons (and Lola) is the Loonatics Unleashed version. The rest is just a massive NO.

[(Anonymous)]

How did they manage to fuck with every single thing that was good about her original design?

[(Anonymous)]

Now I definitely don't want to watch the new series. I was curious before 'cos I lurve my Loony Tunes, but. but. Lola. LOLA WHYYY. Her new design is terrible.

[cloud-riven.livejournal.com]

I think this is fair. Personally, I find her more enjoyable in the new show, but she has no resemblance to how she was introduced. They may as well be two completely different characters, which sucks for her original fans.

It's like Disney's Goofy in a way.

[(Anonymous)]

Why so much offensive language?

[lashiec.livejournal.com]

Wow her new design SUCKS ASS.

[boxlunch33.livejournal.com]

Wow, lots of people in this thread jumping to conclusions without having even seen the show.

At first I wasn't feeling the new designs and the premise of the show either, but I was pleasantly surprised at how laugh out loud funny the new show is. I'm a huge fan of classic, Golden Age cartoons, and even though it would probably be ideal if we could go back to the way things were...let's face it, it ain't that easy. I'm glad the people behind The Looney Tunes Show are at least making an effort to turn out a decent product. It could have been another phoned in, ridiculous AU like Baby Looney Tunes or Loonatics Unleashed or whatever, but no, they're paying service to the most important aspect of Looney Tunes - the comedy. Are the characters different? Yes, but the characters were always changing in the classic cartoons depending on who was directing.

As for Lola...I have to say, even though I'm a 90s kid like a lot of people in this thread, I can't look at her with nostalgia goggles on anymore. C'mon. Take yourself back to the 90s for a second and look at why she was invented by the suits in charge. Were they trying to make a new, funny, interesting character who was zany and as flawed as the rest of the cast? A cast of characters that have been around for decades? No. She was invented to be the Token Girl with zomg girl power...and no flaws or quirks or personality traits whatsoever. Oh, but don't call her 'doll,' because she is Miss Independent. There is nothing about her that makes her a character in her own right, at least not by Looney Tunes standards. She's there to sell backpacks to little girls, end of story. She's not even much of a motivating factor for Bugs, which you can at least say about other female characters from classic series who also got the short end of the stick. Mickey goes on adventures to woo Minnie, Popeye goes on adventures to woo Olive, and it was that way for both characters since the very beginning of their respective cartoon series.

The new show, while you could argue are perpetuating stereotypes, took Lola and gave her a character the way the boys at Termite Terrace would have done. They gave her flaws, they based her off ridiculous things real people do and exaggerated them, THEY MADE HER FUNNY. For the first time I love this character and I can't get enough of her. She's hilarious to watch. Female characters on television aren't usually allowed to be this funny because people like fans of the original Lola won't let females BE characters - funny, flawed, engaging...and yes, messed up in her own fun way. It was that dynamic that made me LOVE Dot from Animaniacs and Babs Bunny from Tiny Toons growing up.

As for the shipping aspect, welp. I don't go to Looney Tunes when I'm in a romantic mood. I'm not sure why someone would. Mickey and Minnie are my favorite characters and they're who I go to when I want sugary, straight-up, sweet shippable romance. Bugs and Lola should be a comedy team with romance sprinkled in. The more out there the better.

Ha, sorry for the tl;dr. I think a little too hard about my cartoons.

[(Anonymous)]

That whole show is just generally bad. I wasn't expecting the same quality as the original or anything, but man, it's not even close.

[(Anonymous)]

i can't stop staring at the new version

her eyelashes

wtf is wrong with her eyelashes

it's like

deadly weapons sprouting from her eyes

like her eyeballs are armed with daggers instead of eyelashes

wtf

[(Anonymous)]

Both are the same shit tho.

BTW hate how they feel the need to pair up every Looney Tunes character as of late.

And they made Porky's mate a thin pig.

[(Anonymous)]

I liked Looney Tunes better when they were trying to violently murder each other.

[(Anonymous)]

WHAT THE HELL IS THAT AND WHY ARE THEY CALLING IT LOLA?
It just...looks so weird. And that's Lola?
