Its wabbit season! Its duck season! Thankfully, its not open season for Looney Tunes on Max .

On Monday, Warner Bros. Discovery freaked out animation fans with a press release announcing the film and TV shows that would be leaving the streamer in December.

One of the shows on the list was Looney Tunes, the classic cartoons featuring beloved characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and Porky Pig.

Not surprisingly, the news caused a collective internet tizzy especially after Warner Bros. recently turned Coyote vs. Acme, a Looney Tunes-inspired film featuring Wile E. Coyote, into a $30 million tax write-off.

The studio later decided to shop the film to other streamers after being criticized for the business decision, Variety reported .
