Anyone ever seen the Bugs Bunny Cartoon where he plays in a baseball game?

Here is some interesting analysis of that game:

I asked my 10 year old cousin like 3 weeks ago what happened to bugs bunny. Had no clue who I was talking about. All they watch now are some sponge and builder guy. What happened to Bugsy? And the coyote guy that always lived...

Yosemite Sam, Yogi Bear, Willie Coyote, and the Roadrunner were standard for my youth.

I would add Elmer Fudd as I have always loved the battle between Fudd and Bugs Bunny especially their "travel show."

Those were my Classic Saturday morning shows.

Granted, there are quite a lot of websites devoted to Bugs Bunny, but there are some good ones:

Chuck Jones was one of the artists who brought Bugs to life. After becoming good friends with his nephew I now understand why Bugs and friends are so warped!! :lol:

My kids have been thoroughly indoctrinated into the Looney Toons world. Their favorite is the "Kill the Wabbit" sketch. Mine is "It's Duck Season..." my best friend and I used to do that in Biology class.

Oh yeah.... The Smurfs cartoons definitely had socialist leanings.

did you ever notice that the word smurf was used as a n adverb, adjective, noun, and verb? Very much like another four letter word in our vocabulary.

Funny, we used to use that four letter word when referring to the smurfs...

When I was at Longwood we used to take the glasses that McDonald's was giving away to the top of Curry and Fraser Hall and see how well they bounced.

Anyone hear about a recent Smurf cartoon where they show the smurf village bombed? and the smurf's all become refugees, if they are not dead?

I'm not kidding about this - Anyone know a link?

Apparently it was a Unicef ad trying to prove the point of stop hurting the children. It looks like it was done in belgian or something. http://palabok.com/2005/10/smurf-village-bombed/

Going along with this them of Smurf being used as an adjective, verb, noun, here is a funny clip from the Family Guy.
