Added DiffLines:

* AwardSnub: Despite being amongst the most iconic characters in the Looney Tunes cast and their cartoons being so influential, the duo only got '''ONE''' nomination for an Academy Award, specifically for ''WesternAnimation/BeepPrepared''.
** Unlike other cartoons that got similarly nubbed, they failed to make it to the final list in Jerry Beck’s ''The 50 Greatest Cartoons'', with their first cartoon, ''WesternAnimation/FastAndFurryOus'', only making it to the runners up list, meaning it didn’t get enough votes.

* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: There are actually a few fan's who DOESN'T feel sorry for Wile E. Coyote, despite one of the rules.

to:

* UglyCute: Wile E. Coyote has [[YellowEyesOfSneakiness yellow eyes]] [[ExhaustedEyeBags encircled by red bags]] and [[BigOlEyebrows bushy brows]], and of course a [[SinisterSchnoz long, crooked snout]]. Yet he ends up being endearing due to his bad luck, sheer determination and the fact that he only really wants a fair meal.

* NightmareFuel:
** The Rudy Larriva Road Runner shorts sometimes veer into this territory, with their DerangedAnimation and ominous background music cues.
** Then there's [[https://youtu.be/KJJW7EF5aVk?t=70 the final scene]] of the 1980 short, "Soup or Sonic", where we get to see a glorious shot of the giant Road Runner (complete with extra detail) from the shrunken Wile E.'s perspective, accompanied by an ominous timpani drumroll. As if that wasn't enough, the bird then bends down to his tiny nemesis and lets out a deeper-pitched "Beep beep!" that ends up sounding almost demonic, along with Wile E. reflected in his eyes!
** The giant fly's SlasherSmile from the same cartoon is unnerving.

* RootingForTheEmpire: An odd [[IntendedAudienceReaction intentional example]]. The first rule of the skits was that the audience's sympathies must always lie with Wile E. Coyote - not tough, considering what a ButtMonkey he became, even by ''WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes'' standards.

Added DiffLines:

* AudienceAlienatingEra: The cartoons directed by Rudy Larriva are often regarded to be the worst of the series. The animation and music is inferior to that of the shorts that came before and after it, while their pacing is tediously slow. It can take minutes for a gag to be set up and resolved.

** In addition, Wile had a smaller stint against Bugs Bunny. In contrast to the most silent Road Runner shorts, here Wile was a ''much'' more verbose and overconfident antagonist that spoke in an eloquent Mid-Atlantan accent and took great pleasure crafting his own inventions than relying on ACME. Although the result of going up against Bugs was the same, especially since Bugs was so crafty and Wile E. so smug

Not really a Woobie. Wile's cartoonish injuries are meant to be amusing, solidifying his status as a Butt Monkey, not someone whom viewers should feel extremely sorry for.
