Trailer Synopsis

The Bugs Bunny Show is an Animated television anthology series hosted by Bugs Bunny, that was mainly composed of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons released by Warner Bros. between August 1, 1948 and the end of 1969. The show originally debuted as a primetime half-hour program on ABC in 1960, featuring three theatrical Warner Bros. Cartoons with new linking sequences produced by the Warner Bros. After three seasons, The Bugs Bunny Show moved to Saturday mornings, where it remained in one format or another for nearly four decades. The show's title and length changed regularly over the years, as did the network: both ABC and CBS broadcast versions of The Bugs Bunny Show.

Episode 26 : Bugs Bunny Show #26
April. 04,1961
Okay, rabbit. Grab a cloud. This is a stick-up. Gun-toting gangsters Rocky and Mugsy hijack the show. Mugsy escorts Bugs off of the stage, and Rocky introduces the cartoons: Bugs accompanying Columbus aboard the Santa Maria in 1492, Foghorn Leghorn endeavoring to prove his being a chicken to Henery Hawk, and Sylvester performing as Big Bad Wolf to a dreaming boy mouse's Little Red Riding Hood, each of which Rocky shows from a film projector.
Episode 25 : Bugs Bunny Show #25
March. 28,1961
Bugs introduces Daffy Duck as this installment's host, but Daffy is backstage being chased by the Tasmanian Devil, who has broken out of a crate. Cartoons include Henery Hawk's lasso-trap capture of Foghorn Leghorn for chicken dinner, Porky Pig's stint as a talent agent, and Bugs' meeting on his home turf with a voracious, spinning juggernaut from Tasmania.
Episode 24 : Bugs Bunny Show #24
March. 21,1961
Yosemite Sam expects to be emcee for this episode consisting of Bugs' river boat gambling escapade, long-suffering Claude Cat's descent into a waterless swimming pool, and two over-indulged-on-cheese mice's suicide act of stepping into a befuddled Claude's mouth. Bugs selects Pepé Le Pew for the emcee duties. A furious Sam tries to shoot Pepe with his two guns, but the bullets from the guns are repelled by Pepé Le Pew's odor and retreat straight back into the nozzles. Sam next uses the Tasmanian Devil to try to chase Pepe off of the stage, but Pepé Le Pew's foul scent also defeats Taz.
Episode 23 : Bugs Bunny Show #23
March. 14,1961
Mac and Tosh, the Goofy Gophers, are again hosts for the show. They spend their time politely arguing over who should introduce the jailed Bugs, house-imprisoned and in-need-of-food Sylvester, and Tweety-in-a-city-park cartoon features; so, Bugs interrupts them and himself does the job.
Episode 22 : Bugs Bunny Show #22
March. 07,1961
Sylvester is host and tells to his son, Junior, the Looney Tune-style fairy tales of the Big Bad Wolf and the Three Little Pigs- in which hero and villain roles are seemingly reversed, Pied Piper Porky Pig of Hamelin, and Jack and the Beanstalk- with Bugs and Daffy as a "pair of Jacks" and Elmer Fudd as the towering inhabitant of the land atop the sprouted beanstalk.
Episode 21 : Bugs Bunny Show #21
February. 28,1961
Mac and Tosh, the Goofy Gophers, are introduced by Bugs as this episode's hosts. In the cartoons, Bugs is orchestrator of a square dance that very much pains two lame-brained men of the Ozark Mountains, Sylvester's feline integrity is in doubt when he cannot defeat a punchy "giant mouse" before the eyes of a cat-prodding bulldog, and Daffy's ruse in chicken guise to win a $5,000 prize goes dreadfully awry when Henery Hawk selects him as fodder for a chicken hawk father-and-son feast.
Episode 20 : Bugs Bunny Show #20
February. 21,1960
Tonight, we thought we would go in for a little fast culture, says Bugs, standing in front of the set for "The Barber of Seville", which, starring Bugs Bunny, is to be the opera feature for the show. But Elmer Fudd, hunting Bugs with his rifle, sees the attraction poster billing Bugs as the star and enters the studio with the intention of shooting Bugs. "This is wabbit season, and I'm gonna get me a wabbit. Opewa or no opewa. Wossini or no Wossini. So, watch out, wabbit!" Additionally, Daffy is an insufficiently convincing protagonist in a swashbuckler story, and Wile E. Coyote on a motorcycle collides with a telephone pole.
Episode 19 : Bugs Bunny Show #19
February. 14,1961
Bugs demonstrates how to draw an animated cartoon character. He decides to use Daffy Duck as an example and draws Daffy from a dumbbell. In this installment's featured cartoons, ball-and-chained sailor Bugs actively expresses his grievances with the captaincy of Shanghai Sam aboard the Sad Sack, an elephant of very small proportion causes hysteria in an American city, and Wile E. Coyote's Superman costume proves anything but airworthy.
Episode 18 : Bugs Bunny Show #18
February. 07,1961
Two lame-brained Mexicali cats, Jose and Miguel, try to host an episode with Yosemite Sam plummeting again and again into a bucket of water, Ralph Wolf being continually stopped from obtaining mutton by the omnipresent Sam Sheepdog, and a mouse deceiving Mike Bulldog into thinking Sylvester to be a provocative foe. Jose and Miguel are heckled on stage by Speedy Gonzales, who entices the dimwit felines into chasing him, with animation reused from "Mexicali Shmoes".
Episode 17 : Bugs Bunny Show #17
January. 31,1961
An unseen animator sketches Foghorn Leghorn with Rock Hudson's body and then draws a broom's tail on Foghorn's backside. Foghorn retaliates by lassoing and pummeling the animator- Daffy Duck, before appearing in the first cartoon as the reluctant love interest of Miss Prissy. The peaceful home of Sylvester and Sylvester Jr. is invaded by zoo office escapee Hippety Hopper, and Bugs purchases houses of straw and wood from Three Little Pigs, minus insurance against a Big Bad Wolf.
Episode 16 : Bugs Bunny Show #16
January. 24,1961
Foghorn Leghorn introduces Miss Prissy, who, Foghorn says, is an old-time actress. Foghorn reenacts some of Prissy's famous roles, including "Romeo and Juliet", in which she played both parts, and an act involving precarious balancing on a stack of chairs and juggling of bowling pins and hoops. Prissy initiates the cartoons by looking into a crystal ball, and she sees Daffy marrying for money and regretting it and Bugs foiling a scientist's plan to transfer his consciousness into the feathered head of a chicken.
Episode 15 : Bugs Bunny Show #15
January. 17,1961
Daffy finally receives recognition! Bugs hosts an all-Daffy Duck tribute, in which Mama Bear performs "I'm Just Wild About Daffy" and the mallard stars in cartoons as a far-future detective, the boon companion to a multi- millionaire, and a dubious hero of the Wild West.
Episode 14 : Bugs Bunny Show #14
January. 10,1961
Elmer Fudd is host and tries to sing, but he is thwarted when the notes on his sheet music run off of their page and remind him of his July 4 picnic that became a harrowing confrontation with an army of ants- and when Sylvester, outside of the studio, wears boots and sings "tra-la-la" while noisily stomping up and down a wooden stairwell. In cartoons presented by Elmer, the Goofy Gophers pursue "vandals" who confiscated all of the vegetables from their garden and Bugs and Yosemite Sam are at odds over property rights.
Episode 13 : Bugs Bunny Show #13
January. 03,1961
Sylvester is introduced by Bugs as host for the show and is applauded by his son, Junior, who is sitting on a crate containing Hippety Hopper, whom they, as usual, mistake for a giant mouse- during segues between Bugs' visit to Baghdad, Charlie Dog's antics in the Deep South, and Foghorn Leghorn's unsuccessful fishing exercise.
Episode 12 : Bugs Bunny Show #12
December. 27,1960
George P. Dog is introduced by Bugs as the emcee for this episode, but Foghorn Leghorn decides that he would be a better emcee and pushes the dog aside. Then, Little Henery Hawk enters the studio on his unending hunt for chicken, and Foghorn uses a magic hat to make Henery disappear. Foghorn next watches and shows to the audience an interview with Bugs Bunny, followed by a documentary on the Gambling Bug- with examples of his work, and lastly Sylvester's encounter with a baby kangaroo from a circus.
Episode 11 : Bugs Bunny Show #11
December. 20,1960
Bugs introduces Porky Pig as the host for the show. Porky is pestered by Charlie Dog, who is looking for a master. Charlie does his all-breeds-in-one routine and complicates Porky's introduction of Claude Cat's struggle to eliminate the loudly barking and feline-startling Frisky Puppy, Sylvester's pursuit of Tweety on a train, and Bugs' thwarting of his own abduction by Marvin Martian.
Episode 10 : Bugs Bunny Show #10
December. 13,1960
Yosemite Sam wants Bugs' hide! So, gun in hand, he comes to see The Bugs Bunny Show live as a spectator in the studio. Bugs deflects Sam's attempts at mayhem while unflappably introducing the cartoons in the show, cartoons wherein Bugs outwits an African witch doctor desiring a rabbit for his latest potion and Sylvester pursues a mazurka-dancing mouse in a Slobovian cabin and vies with a kitten to be the chosen pet of Elmer Fudd.
Episode 9 : Bugs Bunny Show #9
December. 06,1960
Tweety is host of an installment containing two psychological thrillers with birds seemingly doomed to death at a specified time.

Sylvester attempts to reach Tweety in the hanging cage, and Bugs contests Sam Von Schamm, the Hessian, in the Battle of Bagel Heights.
Episode 8 : Bugs Bunny Show #8
November. 29,1960
Daffy wants to host the show. So, he banishes all others from the stage, including Pepe, Elmer, and Bugs. Still, the cartoons proceed on schedule, with Bugs in Scotland, Porky and Sylvester in a spooky, mouse-infested house, and Pepe chasing a white-paint-striped cat in a zoo.
Episode 7 : Bugs Bunny Show #7
November. 22,1960
Daffy disguises himself as Bugs to host the show, but a sheepdog, on a day free from his work, walks into the studio, hoping to catch the bunny-rabbit (Bugs) that he saw on television on the previous week. Daffy, in his rabbit suit, is accosted by the dog, while Bugs, off stage, introduces cartoons: Bugs' battle against a bull, Sylvester's explosive ordeal at sea, and a tale of woe for a man who discovers, beyond the belief of every person around him, a frog that can sing.
Episode 6 : Bugs Bunny Show #6
November. 15,1960
In a musical competition between cartoon features of Bugs at war with a soprano, Sylvester buffeted by tidal waves in his gastronomic quest for Tweety, and two mice conspiring to induce house cat insanity, Daffy plays drums and Bugs imitates "Frankie doing an imitation of Rickie imitating Elvis." Their loud music disturbs Yosemite Sam, who is in a neighboring building, trying to sleep. Sam angrily runs into the Bugs Bunny Show studio and destroys Bugs and Daffy's musical instruments, including a trumpet that Bugs tries to play, which Sam twists into knots.
Episode 5 : Bugs Bunny Show #5
November. 08,1960
Desperate to appear on the show as the feature performer, Daffy dresses as a Hawaiian, a musketeer, and a knight, but his costume is deemed inappropriate by Bugs for each cartoon about to commence. Sylvester seeks to enter the Broken Arms Hotel, wherein no cats are permitted, to snatch Tweety from hotel guest Granny, Bugs jousts with a short-tempered knight in a medieval tournament, and Pepé Le Pew is in a perfume store in pursuit of a cat believed by him to be a skunk.
Episode 4 : Bugs Bunny Show #4
November. 01,1960
Wile E. Coyote's chase of the Road Runner has extended into the studio where Bugs is trying to host his show.

Episode 3 : Bugs Bunny Show #3
October. 25,1960
Bugs Bunny introduces the host for this show, Pepé Le Pew, who is in an apartment in Paris. Pepe steps onto his balcony and gestures for the viewer to gaze upon the romance-filled parks and streets of the city. "Yes, love is everywhere, even at the cinema." The cinema's feature, a love-story located in a Parisian zoological exhibition, stars Pepé Le Pew. Pepe then introduces further affairs of the heart between a flying cat and his landed paramour and between two young mice of opposing wall holes in a Claude Cat household.
Episode 2 : Bugs Bunny Show #2
October. 18,1960
Gangsters Rocky and Mugsy are in their hideout, watching The Bugs Bunny Show. They see Bugs talking about the sponsors who pay substantial money to support his television program. So, the greedy Rocky decides to gain access to sponsorship dollars by going into the television business- and intruding upon the proceedings of an episode depicting rivalry at Tweety-grabbing between Sylvester and an orange putty tat, Daffy Duck's mock servitude to farmer Elmer Fudd, and Speedy Gonzales' procurement of abundant cheese for his Mexican mouse brethren.
Episode 1 : Bugs Bunny Show #1
October. 11,1960
Bugs Bunny introduces his co-hosts individually. Pepé Le Pew is shown standing next to a bistro table and saying, "'Ello, girls." Yosemite Sam rides onto stage atop his un-whoa-able horse. Tweety walks into the stage spotlight and says he, "...taw a putty tat." Sylvester is about to grab Tweety when he is "yee-ha-ed" upward off of the stage by Speedy Gonzales, whom Bugs describes as the fastest mouse in all Mexico. Forever vain Daffy Duck cannot persuade Bugs to mention him, try though he does through the show, which consists of Yosemite Sam's vain try to bake Bugs, Sylvester's disastrous attempt at rodent fatherhood, and a black panther's humbling of an aggressor bulldog.
