The Wacky World of Tex Avery (French: Le Monde Fou de Tex Avery) is an animated television series created by Robby London and co-produced by DIC Productions, L.P., Les Studios Tex SARL, Milimetros, M6 and Telcima.[1][2]

Both the series and the titular character were named after Tex Avery, a cartoonist who is known for his work at Warner Bros. and MGM.[3] The creator describes the show as "homage to the brilliant, hilarious and groundbreaking animator Tex Avery and the wonderful squash-and-stretch cartoons of his era".[4] The series was first broadcast on French channel M6 on September 3, 1997, followed on by its broadcast in the United States on September 29, through syndication on BKN, until it ended on December 26 the same year, due to poor ratings and reviews. In following years, The Wacky World of Tex Avery was overwhelmingly panned for it being an "insult" to Tex Avery's legacy, along with its animation, crude humor, voice acting, character designs and imagery, theme song, pacing, outdated stereotypes and characters.
