Happy Spooky Season Folks!
Welcome to your best source of news surrounding the beloved Looney Tunes!
In this podcast you'll find an abundance of horrors!
Starting off with Looney Movie News Layoffs and a possible cancellation!
THE HORROR! THE HORROR!
On this week's podcast, I'm joined by the talented host of Getting Strange with Steffany Strange, TV personality on CW's Spirit Squad, Host of Something Scary and tiktok personality Steffany Strange! We give our opinions on the latest Halloween Special on HboMax and dive deep into the psychology of dark comedy!
The Bugs Bunny Hall-O-Skreem Spooktacula is NOW on HBOMAX and it's jam packed with horrific laughs in the face of death! What did we think of the return of Witch Hazel to this retro-reboot? Were we horrified when Bugs met the Mummy? Is anyone digging the Graves in Graveyard Goofs more than me? You'll find out when you listen to this episode!
This episode is also available in video form on Youtube (Youtube.com/ThisMeansPodcast) and if you subscribe to the Patreon you'll get even quicker access to the show and more Looney treats!

Witch Hazel is BACK!
Candi Milo does an impeccable job at stepping into this role made popular by June Foray and does it with panache! I am very much looking forward to this character having many more appearances.
Porky and Sylvester!
I'm ecstatic to say that the Porky/Sylvester pairing still works beautifully and one of the things I wanted to point out to fans is that when Sylvester is Porky's pet cat, he doesn't speak. This adds to the tension of the horror surrounding their adventures.
We recommend this special to old and new fans of Looney Tunes alike, but while we're glad we are being challenged with this comedic content, it won't be for everyone.
