Bugs Bunny's Creature Features

Bugs Bunny

• I'd like to see him eeh-ooh-aah-ooh and, but his way outs this one! [laughs] Maybe, I should have sold him a couple of books for the kid. Oh well.
• Here we are, Pismo Beach and all the clams we can eat!
• [sung] I dream of Genie, she is a light brown hare.
• You want me to tell stories to that? I did rather throw peanuts at it.

Daffy Duck

• Since when is Pismo Beach inside a cave?
• What a way for a duck to travel, underground.

Old Storyteller

• I was once a human being, but that rotten kid in there was my undoing. He does not need a storyteller; he needs an exorcist!

Tweety

• I thought I taw a itty, bitty putty tat!

Sylvester, Jr.

• Whoever heard of a cat eating porridge? Why cannot we have a mouse like other pussycats?

Dialogue

Prince Abadaba: A FROG? But frogs don't sing!

Bugs Bunny: [whispers] This one did...

Sylvester, Jr.: I don't like porridge! I want a mouse!

Sylvester: You'll eat your porridge and like it!

Sylvester, Jr.: I'll eat it. But I won't like it!

Prince Abadaba: What happened to Goldilocks?

Bugs Bunny: She's serving time in Tehachapi for breaking in and entering. Now that's the last story and there ain't no more.

Prince Abadaba: Oh yes there is.

Bugs Bunny: Oh no there ain't.

Prince Abadaba: Oh yes there is.

Bugs Bunny: Oh no there ain't.

Prince Abadaba: Oh yes there is

Yosemite Sam: Oh yes there is.

Bugs Bunny: Well there are some more.
