    Which one was that?

    Tap for spoiler

    They’re all characters from Warner Bros. Loony Toons cartoons, which date from possibly the 1930s. I grew up with them so maybe have not noticed if there are any problematic names

      I grew up watching a bunch of Looney Tunes and got the theme pretty quickly, but I’d never heard of Foxy. I was shocked how much of a Mickey Mouse ripoff it appeared to be (and as I’m now finding, close enough that Walt Disney himself stepped in to ask them to stop).

        I didn’t know this one either. I thought it would be a non-theme word. I didn’t look it up though because I was thinking it was the wolf that goes crazy over the girls. I watched some of the actual thing though, and it’s very old school Mickey Mouse!
