Beginning in February, Warner Bros. Discovery–owned Turner Classic Movies will begin airing the Looney Tunes animated films under a newly announced six-year licensing deal that makes the shorts accessible on linear television. The rollout starts with a week-long Bugs Bunny tribute featuring 45 classic cartoons and will continue with additional shorts and feature pairings, restoring content removed from HBO Max in March.
