Road Runner is back: is this good?

Where are Wile E.'s ears?

I don't know about this. It's the Cartoon Network promo for the new "Looney Tunes" show. On one hand, it's nice to see actual cartoons on the Cartoon Network again. On the other, the CGI for Road-runner & Wile E. looks much, much worse than expected, and the action's flat and slack. The 2D animation looks better. I'll still watch it; these are pop icons, and there's a chance they'll do it right. Isn't there?

Please don't bring up "Space Jam."
