Here Are Some Looney Tunes Facts!
- For New Years 2009, Cartoon Network aired a Looney Tunes (which hadn't been seen on the network since October 2004) marathon dubbed "Looney Toonormous Marathon". It ran for 14 hours from 6:00am-8:00pm where it was followed by two hours of Total Drama Island before [adult swim] signed on. A shorter version of the marathon that only ran for 11 hours from 8:00am-7:00pm aired the following year only for the shorts to be removed right after.
- Another marathon, that was simply dubbed "Looney Tunes Marathon", aired on November 15th from 1:00pm-7:00pm to celebrate their return to the regular schedule after being off for 5 years.
- The channel used to have 48 hours of nothing but Bugs Bunny cartoons in June - "June Bugs". They brought June Bugs back in 2012 and 2013, adding episodes of The Looney Tunes Show into the mix.
- To ring in 2000, they acquired a 48-hour "Mil-Looney-um" marathon and a 36-hour marathon of The Jetsons.
- Boomerang ran an all day marathon on July 27, 2020 to celebrate Bugs Bunny's 80th anniversary with featured old Bugs Bunny shorts, New Looney Tunes, Baby Looney Tunes (which is airing at the same 6AM slot it always does), The Looney Tunes Show (which temporarily returned for this marathon) and the network premiere of Looney Tunes: Rabbits Run.
- VH1 loves airing Space Jam every Thanksgiving, ironically, because it is a Looney Tunes movie it deserves it to be shown!
