I dearly love Rabbit Rampage, too, but for some reason Daffy knows the way to my funny bone better. Anyone ever notice how Chuck Jones’s Daffy shares a lot of characteristics with Jack Lemmon?
I don’t see any Roadrunner / Coyote listed yet. I’ll fix that when I compile my list.
So many great titles. But as much as I appreciate Mel Blanc’s genius, I’m also a big fan of Stan Freberg. Two of his greatest contributions to the WB catalog are his turn as Pete Puma in Rabbit’s Kin (link goes to Dailymotion), and as primary voice artist in the classic [Three Little Bops ]Redirecting...) (link goes to Facebook). The great Shorty Rogers is a special feature of this one.
theres 2 i think one where the dog adopts a totally loveable kitten and has to hide it from its owner and the other one is the same scenario but its a cat…
Hare We Go the one with Christopher Columbus
“She’s flat like your head!”
“Who’s a the wise a guy”
Transylvania 6-5000
(“La da, la di, la da, la da, la di, la da, Abracadaaaaaaaaaaaabra…”)
(“…Hocus pohhhhhhhhhh-cus…”)
("Abraca-pocus! “Hocus-cadabra!”)
That’s Feed the Kitty.
There’s another too with Marc Antony and the kitty
Claws for Alarm (another of the Porky, Sylvester, haunted house)
A Lad-in-his Lamp. Jim Backus as the genie. “Sweet spirits of camphor…can’t a man get any sustenance around here??”
Duck, Rabbit, Duck! (another Rabbit Season)
Hasty Hare (Marvin the Martian and his dog. “How Halloweenie can you get??”
There They Go Go Go. Classic Roadrunner…with the Coyote holding up a little sign saying “In heaven’s name…what am I doing??”
This was the first in the series about Ralph the Coyote and Sam the Sheepdog. They go to work together, punch the clock, stop for lunch and the rest of the time are mortal enemies. I remember this striking me as so absurdly funny when I was a kid. I loved that they were very nice to each other off the clock, and all the violence (with Ralph always getting the worst of it) was just business.
Interestingly, Ralph is not the same coyote as in the Road Runner cartoons. He seems to specialize in sheep.
Looney what now?
I can think of only Powerhouse, first recorded in 1937.
Lost my mind-boggling Carl Stalling CD many moons ago. 
“Powerhouse” is originally by Raymond Scott, just for the record [sic]. But Stalling’s use of it - and composition for the cartoons in general - was brilliant.
Come on, people, Hillybilly Hare is an absolute classic.
I don’t know the names of the shorts, but I loved them all. I’d still watch 'em if I could.
I remember my brother watching one of the Rabbit Season shorts. And every time Bugs would get Daffy to look up for Elmer and get his beak shot, and come back down and say, “Still lurking about” my brother would laugh like he’d never seen it before.
I loved Yosemite Sam, “Stupid camel,” Bugs, “Well batten 'em down again! We’ll show those hatches!,” Elmer wearing the bunny suit. The cat sticking to the ceiling every time he got scared. Oh, yeah and Bugs getting the hillbillies to beat the crap out of each other by calling a very violent square dance.
I know they were, “violent,” but they were fun. Kid’s cartoons now are wretched, at least what my grandkids watched. Now all they watch is youtube. I think a bit of Loony Tunes would be a lot better. Shaking my metaphorical cane and yelling get off my lawn!!
- Duck Amuck
- What’s Opera, Doc?
- Little Lion Hunter
- Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century
- Feed the Kitty
Little Lion Hunter introduces Chuck Jones’s most inexplicable character: the Mynah Bird. It’s unfortunate that it features Inki, who is drawn as a racist stereotype of the time, which means it’s not often shown.
All of my favourites have been mentioned. “What’s Opera, Doc?” “The Rabbit of Seville,” “Feed the Kitty,” “Bully for Bugs,” “Duck Dodgers,” and so many others.
Honorable mentions go to the one that features Bugs and Daffy in “Pronoun Trouble” (not sure of the title, but that should be recognizable), and the one where Blaque Jacques Shellac and Bugs Bunny try to outdo each other in damming a river.
Loved the Roadrunner and Coyote, and Sylvester and Tweety and Granny, and the Wolf and the Sheepdog. I say I never cared much, I say, for Foghorn Leghorn.
But as we were discussing music above, I have to mention “The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down,” which is basically the Looney Tunes’ theme song. There are too many versions to post just one example, but you can take your choice from its Wikipedia entry:
He’s not a coyote at all - he’s a wolf.
Some of my favorites are from the 1940s and are so non-PC I can’t post them here.
