Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe scene in which Bugs discusses his "several fathers" was written by Chuck Jones as a way to debunk fellow animation director Robert Clampett's claims throughout the 1970s that he alone created Bugs. Clampett's name is notably missing from Bugs's list. Also missing is Ben Hardaway, who created the earliest prototype of Bugs and was in fact the originator of the name "Bugs Bunny" (Bugs being Hardaway's own nickname), though in this case Jones later confirmed that the omission had simply been an oversight, and that he would have had no qualms about including Hardaway in the gallery.
- GoofsDuring the space text-crawl, a space appeared in the word "ago" (i.e. a long [...] time a go).
- Quotes
Daffy Duck: [demanding the unseen animator to show himself] All Right! I've had enough of this. This is the final, final Straw-WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS! I DEMAND THAT YOU SHOW YOURSELF! WHO ARE YOU? HUH?
[the animator draws a door in front of Daffy and shuts it, then he reveals himself as BUGS BUNNY!]
Bugs Bunny: Heh!Heh! Ain't I a stinker?
- Crazy creditsThe "That's All Folks" card keeps appearing at the beginning and end. In the beginning, after they show the Warner Communications logo, they show the traditional "That's All Folks" card that is usually shown at the end. Bugs Bunny appears in front of it and sniffs and gets rid of the background and sniffs again then he pushes the words "That's" and "All Folks" separately and down comes the word "NOT" in red capital letters underlined. Then it reads, "That's NOT All Folks!" Then Bugs pulls the traditional opening Warner Bros. logo shown at the beginning.
- Alternate versionsLater cut to 78 minutes for Cable TV and 48 minutes for network TV.
- ConnectionsEdited from Long-Haired Hare (1949)
Featured review
This compilation of classic WB short cartoons is (expectedly) highly uneven, but generally enjoyable. Among the highlights: Bugs Bunny as a vengeful symphony conductor, he and Daffy Duck arguing about whether it's "duck season" or "rabbit season" (this sketch has a hilarious punchline), the surrealistic (and also somewhat sadistic!) "Duck Amuck", etc. The final "Road Runner" segment does go on a little too long. Overall, this is a nice way to spend 95 minutes mindlessly and painlessly, and also a good opportunity to see some of those shorts that you may have missed on TV. (**1/2)
