Starring Bugs, Daffy, Elmer and Sam, it also has the appearance of Granny from the Tweety and Sylvester cartoons as the woman in the audience sitting beside Daffy. She was truly memorable as well in her supporting role, as she always was in the cat and bird episodes.

I like how Friz managed to get 4 characters into a 7 minute cartoons without cluttering it up.From a writer's perspective that is very hard to do. Cheers for Friz and Foster!
