The stories for all three segments are a lot of fun and compelling, the most eventful being "Fur-Gone Conclusion" with also the most conflict. Dialogue has the razor sharp wit and wackiness that one expects for 'Tiny Toon Adventures', "Rent-a-Friend" is full of it. The theme tune has never lost its irresistible quality and the music itself is dynamic with the action and full of character, very like the old Looney Tunes characters. Especially in "Rent-a-Friend" and the whole character of the Cruella DeVil-like Madam Gotcha Grabmore (what a name). The animation is colourful and has some lovely background and character expression/reaction detail. It serves this purpose quite well but the story is not the most inspired of ones and the wit and wackiness seen in the segments being introduced are not quite as evident in the wraparounds. It is at its weakest during the wraparound linking story, its sole purpose being to introduce each segment so that there is a clear connection between the three segments. All three of the segments ("Rent-a-Friend", "Bunny Daze" and "Fur-Gone Conclusion") depicting different ways of what the characters do on these type of days are enormous fun in their own way and make things like household chores and getting rid of pests fun and not tiresome. Luckily "Rainy Daze" not only makes rainy days interesting, it also makes for great entertainment. "Rainy Daze's" story though, while easy to relate to when reading about it, did have the risk of making something that can be mundane not interesting. It is especially difficult to not identify with Babs if household chores are things you'd rather not be doing and want a way of getting it done faster or more fun (raising tentative hand here). Being somebody who doesn't always know what to do on a rainy day and not having much incentive to do much when those days happen. Part of me knew that "Rainy Daze" would be easy to relate to, not just to me but most people.
