Looney Tunes Season 1939 Episode 27 Hare-um Scare-um

In Looney Tunes season 1939 episode 27, titled Hare-um Scare-um, viewers are in for a wild ride with Bugs Bunny, who makes his first-ever appearance in a classic Warner Bros. cartoon. The episode begins with two hunters, who are clueless and have never caught anything in their lives, going out hunting in the woods. They eventually come across a rabbit hole and figure out that there may be some rabbits inside that they can catch. They decide to try their luck and quickly set a trap to catch any rabbits that might come out.

What follows is a hilarious game of cat and mouse (or should we say hunter and rabbit) between one of the hunters and Bugs Bunny, who is the resident expert in evading capture. Bugs Bunny, who was originally named Happy Rabbit in this episode, is quick-witted and effortlessly dodges the traps that the hunter sets for him. He also manages to outsmart the hunter with his quick thinking and charming personality.

The hunter tries several methods to catch Bugs Bunny, including using dynamite, a shotgun, and even pretending to be a cute little bunny in distress to lure Bugs out of his hole. However, Bugs outsmarts the hunter at every turn and even turns the tables on him. He uses the hunter's own traps against him and drives him crazy with his antics.

The episode isn't just about Bugs Bunny vs the hunter. It also features several vignettes that showcase Bugs' quirky persona and comedic timing. There's a memorable scene where Bugs Bunny sneaks up behind the hunter and replaces his shampoo with a bottle of gunpowder. There's also a scene where Bugs Bunny dances a jig to avoid getting caught by the hunter.

The animation in this episode is top-notch, with fluid movements, bright colors, and intricate details. The sound effects and music also add to the humor and entertainment value of the episode. The voice actors bring their A-game, with Mel Blanc as the voice of Happy Rabbit (later renamed Bugs Bunny) and Tex Avery as the director.

Overall, Hare-um Scare-um is a classic Looney Tunes episode that set the standard for all the ones that followed. It's a funny, entertaining, and timeless cartoon that will leave viewers in stitches. This episode is a must-watch for any fan of Bugs Bunny, Looney Tunes, or classic animation in general.
