A lot of intros have tried to copy the style of this one, but none have come close to doing it so well. It gives the impression superficially of being just a bunch of random zany clips, but it actually does a very good job of introducing the viewer to the Warner siblings, the eccentric world they inhabit, the setup for the show with the Warners locked in the water tower and getting free to cause mischief, and the tone of the show. In fact, the sequence even cleverly mocks using an intro to set up the story, having the Warners sing and now you know the plot. And although theres nothing particularly innovative about the presentation, it has a distinctive feel that stands out from other cartoons.

The theme song is full of energy and catchy to say the least. Its tough not to enjoy, at least in my view. And while it seems like some of the lyrics were made up just for a rhyme, it works for the whimsical nature of the sequence.

Thats about all Ive got to say for this one, its just a lot of fun.
