In this series, the Looney Tunes will leave the sitcom world and return to their slapstick-comedy roots. Each episode of Wabbit contains four shorts, starring Bugs Bunny from the Looney Tunes as the main character. Other characters, such as Wile E. Coyote and Yosemite Sam, show up to annoy him. Some characters are given new traits: Wile E., for example, is Bugs' smart-aleck neighbor, while the Tasmanian Devil (renamed "Theodore Tasmanian") is employed as an accountant, though he represses his true self. Added in are new characters a squirrel named Squeaks and a childlike version of Bigfoot who come to befriend Bugs. Likewise, Bugs faces new villains, but not without the help of his friends.
