It's so sad that Clampett left so soon, no other animator i know ever got to recapture his same wild zany energetic essence, not even John Kricfalusi. What's even more sad is that after he left Looney Tunes cartoons became increasingly less looney, and he didn't went on to making a career in other studio like Tex Avery did, truly a lot of wasted unique talent that will never be back
@@aaendi6661 Well Chuck practically stole Charlie Dog from Bob so it'd be the pot calling the kettle black if he did. :P I heard Clampett hated the Road Runner cartoons though.
The "sawing logs" gag actually has a long history, originating in comic strips more than a century ago (I think The Katzenjammer Kids was the first one to use it.)
The most obscure Warner reference is that Egyptian dance bugs did on some rooftop in one of the toons. It was a callout to those animated raster style Time Square signs.
And by doing that, eliminated a reference to Billie Holiday's song, "These n' That n' Those"; which, when she sings it, sounds like "dese n' dat' n' does". Did they edit it for fear it was going to turn us into pill popping junkies? Or for political correctness regarding black pronunciation? If anyone knows I'd like some info on that! To see if my guess as to the origin of the joke is correct, for starters!
@@davidburbage3348 I'm sure the scene was censored for fear of little kids being tempted to take mommy's sleeping pills. "Take dese and doze" was just wordplay on the stereotypical "gangster" or "tough guy" pronunciation of "these and those."
Mel Brooks also used "Walk This Way" gag in Robin Hood: Men in Tights and that gag has been referenced in tons of comedy films and TV shows, even The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy had a varation of it. The gag was also made into a song by Aerosmith in 70's.
Always appreciate the work and art that he and his fellow associates created. What he could have made with stop motion and dramatic action animation... we could have had a John Carter of Mars to parallel Superman.
That first cut mentioned was indeed awkward, but the second one(s) looks like Clampett was trying to cut bits to make the cartoon "read" faster, for deliberate effect.
Have you done a video of the LT short, "Dr. Devil & Mr. Hare"? I was thinking of what to request and that came to mind. One of the funniest they ever did in the 60s! If you have, I'll go look and you can ignore this. thx
I know this is a 5 year old video in commenting on but I’m wondering at 5:41, if wb didn’t credit Clampett on his works because he left before its release how does that rule apply to chuck jones shorts like Transvaal is 6500 where it came out in 1963 but jones got fired and left in 1962. Heck he was even working on his Tom and Jerry shorts for mgm when shorts like 6500 came out.
@@TheLooneyTunesCritic but wasn't Eddie Selzer producer (after Leon sold the studio to WB) when Clampett left and not Leon and in fact, his differs with Clampett is what ending up on Clampett leaving/getting fired

I've always wondered how a Clampett Road Runner cartoon would have been. However Jones had a grudge with Clampett so I don't know if he'll let him.
….and then he created Beanie and Cecil.
And It was bad?
Have you Guys seen Rocko Modern Life it has wacky animation like the Clampett Cartoons, and it has crazy animals behaving like Looney Tunes characters

One of Bob Clampett"s best Bugs Bunny shorts!
This is Bob Clampett's final cartoon.

"A Hare Grows In Manhattan" (1947).
The version of this cartoon I remember is the one where they edited out the scene where Bugs took the sleep aid.

the part that gets cut when this is shown on TV & I don't get is when Bugs takes Sleeping Pills
Not until the mid-90's had they began editing the scene of the pills being taken.
@@marcoparada6652 I don't get the censoring anyway
As toons NOW are a million time worse than these classics
South Park Need I say more?

7:01 that looks like the scene of Danny running away with his comic book in The Great Piggy Bank Robbery, 3 months before this cartoon.
I can imagine the Termite Terrace guys having fun tearing up the "contract with Mr. Warner".

The log on the cliff gag is basically a reuse of the one in All This and Rabbit Stew.
Children's cartoons often have sort an acid trip sequence of hidden adult messages but are appropriate enough for toddlers to watch

7:04 "Eh, what's cookin', doc?" (Bugs' missing dialogue)
The wolf says how old is she😏
Best character ever perverted wolf
Clampett pretty much copied Tex Avery's perverted wolf character.
I wonder if dolled up Elmer was a inspiration for Elmira (Tiny Toons).
Elmer's hat in the dream sequence is the kind he wears in the shorts directed by Chuck Jones that go with his green suit.
Sixty-four years before "Inception," characters were sharing dreams. Bob Clampett was truly ahead of his time.
lol I meant 2:41 not 5:41

The rules are different because Clampett worked for Leon Schlesinger. Chuck, by that time, worked for WB.

The accurate part was bugs bunny following Elmer just to figure how to persuade him to come back in the episode
The ending proves that Bugs Bunny was in Elmer's dream all along
4:08
5 38 the wuxi finger hold
I just wonder how clampetts Art style wouldve looked like during the 50s and 60s
prob similar to how Scribner animated for Bob McKimson throughout the early to mid 50s but a bit more expressive.
This Cartoon was ruined by DVNR. How did you remove the DVNR
It's from the DVDs.
@@TheLooneyTunesCritic Which one? I have the golden collection volume 2 and it suffers from DVNR.
Platinum Collection, Vol. 3.
@@TheLooneyTunesCritic ok thanks
Create someone with nightmare paint
Meme Bugs Bunny
The female Elmer helped inspire Elmyra duff
Dreams show that your not wearing pants
What's up doc
Inception
Looney tunes 1941
I always had the idea that the part with 'The rabbits are coming hooray hooray' is a reference to Dumbo's pink elephant scene.
Used for children's cartoons as well
