After the eventual graduation of the [[Tiny Toons]] cast, the [[Looney Tunes]] continued teaching becoming highly successful tenured Looniversity Professors until their eventual retirement where they then decided to move away from Acme Acres to instead quiet homes in the suburbs. The show is simply a [[Spin Off]] continuation and the Tunes' residency to a modern neighborhood.

And every time they say "Best friend", they mean boyfriend. They live together for years, they bicker like they're married, they go on couples game shows, and cruises together, they even had an episode where Bugs doesn't want Daffy smothering him because he doesn't want them to be like those ''other'' kind of "best friends", while pointing to two gophers who might as well be [[Sickeningly Sweethearts]].

The last thing he wanted was to friendly roommates with Daffy. He wanted to remain a screwball under the freedom of [[Negative Continuity]], and the reason the show was in [[Development Hell]] that long was because Bugs was wreaking havoc with dynamite and [[Take That Kiss|Take That Kisses]]. Eventually, somehow, they wrangled him and forced him into line. Now he wanders through the episodes with a near suicidal look on his face, occasionally snarking off to Daffy but going no further. But, as mentioned above, he will crack. The only reason he loves living in prison or wishes he had attended high school is because they were all different than what he has to do on ''this'' show, and are the only places where he is in a positive mood and where he can actually be himself!
