The WB!'s That's Warner Bros.! and Bugs 'n' Daffy installment series edited many cartoons for violence, dangerous, imitable behavior; racial or ethnic stereotyping, and anything considered "inappropriate" for children, such as the "You Beat Your Wife" scene in "Wideo Wabbit" or the bribery part in "Bugs' Bonnets". Not many cartoons that had racial or ethnic stereotyping in them aired much in either series; the ones that did are listed below.

Censorship[]

Along Came Daffy (1947)[]

  • The decoy scene was edited to remove the part where, after the black-haired mountain man shoots all the fake Daffys, he shoots the real Daffy, blowing most of his feathers off and the remaining ones form the appearance of a skimpy two-piece bikini swimsuit.

Back Alley Oproar (1948)[]

  • The scene of Elmer running up and down the slippery stairs and stepping on the thumbtacks was removed, though Sylvester greasing the stairs and scattering thumbtacks on the ground was left in.

Ballot Box Bunny (1951)[]

  • Much like the versions shown on ABC, CBS, WB, FOX, first-run syndicated networks, Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network (pre-2011), and Boomerang (also pre-2011) in America, the Russian Roulette ending gag is cut, making it end after Bugs and Sam find out that a literal "dark horse" has become the town's mayor (or "mare").

Bear Feat (1949)[]

  • The ending where Papa Bear attempts suicide by jumping off a cliff, only for Junior to save him with a tub of water and Papa Bear punching his son in the face, was cut, making it end with Papa Bear sobbing after discovering the newspaper is outdated.

The Bee-Deviled Bruin (1949)[]

  • When That's Warner Bros.! changed its named to Bugs 'n' Daffy during its second season, this short was pulled for violence and dangerous behavior, mostly Papa Bear punching his son in the face, the end where Junyer cries and clings to Mama Bear as Papa Bear angrily advances on the pantry, Papa Bear messing with a beehive, Papa Bear hitting Junyer with a shovel and Papa Bear getting hit with a shovel, and Papa Bear climbing a pantry to get the last jar of honey, only for it to fall over on him.

Birth of a Notion (1947)[]

  • The scene of Daffy trying to stab the Peter Lorre-esque scientist in his sleep, only for the scientist to have a shield to protect him, was cut.

(Blooper) Bunny (1991)[]

  • Daffy getting smacked with the floorboard (after ranting about Elmer using a real gun instead of a prop one and walking off the set in a rage) had his line "You smug son of a --" before the camera cuts off edited down to "You smug --" (surprisingly, this wasn't censored when aired on Cartoon Network or Boomerang, given that both channels have edited mild swearing in such shorts as "The Rebel Without Claws" and "I Was a Teenage Thumb").
  • The entire end credits with Yosemite Sam ranting after the failed firework stunt and Bugs munching a carrot and saying to the camera that everything that happened will be fixed in editing was cut.

Book Revue (1946)[]

  • Daffy and the wolf running through the book Uncle Tom's Cabin was cut, similar to the Cartoon Network and Boomerang versions that aired outside of The Bob Clampett Show.
  • Daffy's line "So round, so firm, so fully packed, so easy on the draw," a reference to Lucky Strike cigarettes, was deleted, a scene that Cartoon Network and Boomerang didn't edit, despite that they often edit out references to tobacco and cigarette smoking.

A Broken Leghorn (1959)[]

  • The sequence where Foghorn ties some corn to a gun to kill the baby rooster, only to get blasted in the face when the latter tugs so hard the gun points at him instead, was cut entirely. Compare with the ABC and CBS versions which cut that scene, as well as the "rain gutter/dynamite scene", and Foghorn throwing a ball into traffic and making the baby rooster fetch it.

Buccaneer Bunny (1948)[]

  • The whole "dead men tell no tales" scene where Bugs nearly dupes Sam into shooting himself was removed.

Bugs' Bonnets (1956)[]

  • At the beginning, the demonstration of how an ordinary man's personality can change if he wore pirate regalia had his line "Kill the women and children first! Blood! Gore!" muted.
  • Elmer's line, "Come out and wet me see the cowor of your spurting blood!" and Bugs' line, "My spurting blood?! Yipe!" were also muted.
  • The entire scene where Bugs (as a mobster) bribes Elmer (as a police officer about to arrest mobster Bugs) with money, then when a judicial wig falls on Bugs' head, he becomes a judge and accuses policeman Elmer for taking a bribe was removed.
    • It should be noted that, unlike the versions shown on ABC, CBS, and pre-2001 Cartoon Network and Boomerang, the parts where Elmer as General MacArthur smokes a pipe, Bugs as a mobster smokes a cigar, and the game warden/Pilgrim and Indian sequence weren't cut on The WB.

Bugs Bunny Rides Again (1948)[]

  • Several of the gun based gags at the start were cut, including the bullets stopping and proceeding at traffic lights, one cowboy shooting another and then drinking his beer as he drops dead, and Sam shooting at a cowboy like a wooden duck in a shooting gallery.
  • Bugs rolling a cigarette in his tongue was cut.
  • Like most American TV and home media versions, the WB also aired this with Yosemite Sam's introductory boast ending with, "...and I ain't no namby-pamby" instead of "...and I don't mean Mahatma Ghandi".

Bye, Bye Bluebeard (1949)[]

  • A short shot of Bluebeard putting Porky in the guillotine (after the mouse flips a coin to decide whether he should save Porky or not) was cut, though not the scene of Bluebeard building the guillotine while Porky is tied to a chair, begging for his life.
  • The scene of Bluebeard (after eating mini-bombs disguised as popovers) rushing to the medicine cabinet and mixing the contents of every bottle in a cup to drink before the explosion happens was cut to make it look like Bluebeard ate the "popovers" and exploded.
    • It should be noted that these edits were also done when the short aired on Nickelodeon.

Cheese Chasers (1951)[]

  • The scene of Hubie and Bertie hitting Claude on the foot with a hammer to force him to eat them was cut.

Confederate Honey (1940)[]

Though this cartoon rarely aired on the network (and still doesn't air much today) due to its Civil War theme and scenes featuring African-American slaves, it did air on The WB with following scenes of black stereotyping removed:

  • The shot of the sign reading, "Uncle Tom's Bungalows--$1.50 a Night and Up"
  • All scenes featuring the black cotton pickers.
  • A shot of a slave girl (called Topsy by Crimson O'Hairoil) putting the finishing touches on Crimson O'Hairoil's dress.
  • The scene with the slave validating parking tickets is cropped so the viewer only sees the slave's hand.
  • The scene where Elmer gives his horse to a slave valet crops out the appearance of the slave valet and is shortened to remove the part where the slave actually parks the horse.
  • All three scenes of the slave waiting for Elmer to retrieve his horse.

Corn on the Cop (1965)[]

  • Similar to the version shown on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, the scene of the robber dressed as Granny shooting Daffy in the face was cut, making it look like the robber got away while Porky and Daffy were arguing over who gets to arrest him

Corn Plastered (1951)[]

  • The whole sequence of the crow tricking the farmer into getting into a refrigerator to see if the light stays on when you close the door (and the farmer freaking out when he can't get out) was cut, similar to the Nickelodeon version.

Crowing Pains (1947)[]

  • The beginning where Sylvester runs away from Barnyard Dawg and Barnyard Dawg ends up hanged from a tree branch with Sylvester about to swing an axe at him (and gets stopped by Foghorn Leghorn) is cut, now making the cartoon open with Foghorn telling Sylvester, "Let's bury the hatchet, but not in anyone's head."

Daffy Duck & Egghead (1938)[]

  • Egghead shooting an audience member who won't sit down was cut (similar to the Cartoon Network and Boomerang version).

Daffy's Inn Trouble (1961)[]

  • Daffy twirling his gun and blasting himself in the face was edited with a fake fade to black after Daffy says "Okay, you're asking for it!" (most edited versions -- including Cartoon Network's version up until 2004 and again in 2012 -- use a dissolve to the boulder scene after Daffy asks if he and Porky are partners and Porky says no).

Doggone Cats (1947)[]

  • The scene where a trash can lid falls on Wellington's head, causing him to impersonate a Chinaman, was cut (similar to the version shown on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and MeTV).

Duck! Rabbit, Duck! (1953)[]

  • As with the other two cartoons in "The Hunter's Trilogy" ("Rabbit Fire" and "Rabbit Seasoning"), all scenes of Daffy getting shot were cut, though the WB's version of "Duck! Rabbit! Duck!" was the sloppily-edited version from ABC and CBS that used jump cuts to get rid of any and all scenes of Elmer firing his gun and Daffy getting shot. Unlike ABC's and CBS' version, however, Elmer pointing a gun in the back of Bugs' head after shooting the mug filled with black-strap molasses was never cut on the WB.

Easy Peckin's (1953)[]

  • The scene of the fox as Paul Revere, screaming, "Open up! The British are coming!" and George the Rooster (dressed as a Redcoat) shooting him in the face was cut.

Feather Dusted (1955)[]

  • Unlike the versions shown on ABC and Cartoon Network, the Fort Pale-Face sequence (almost always cut because of Native American stereotyping) was mostly left in. The only part cut was Foghorn Leghorn pulling the cork on Egghead, Jr.'s gun and getting shot in the face.

Fox-Terror (1957)[]

  • The scene with Foghorn and the Barnyard Dawg spinning and shooting their respective duel guns at the fox was cut.

Gift Wrapped (1952)[]

  • The entire scene with Sylvester as an Indian and Tweety as Hopalong Cassidy was cut.

Good Noose (1962)[]

  • Like Nickelodeon, the version that aired on The WB was a severely butchered version that cut all the scenes of Daffy being strangled on a noose and the sequence where Daffy does his "escape from a trunk" trick, only to get locked in it for ten days.

The Great Piggy Bank Robbery (1946)[]

  • The scene where Daffy traps the criminals behind a door and blasts them to death with his Tommy gun was cut.

Greedy for Tweety (1957)[]

  • The mouse hammering both Sylvester and the bulldog's cast-bound feet was cut (though the other scenes of Sylvester and the bulldog causing harm to each others' allegedly broken legs weren't edited, nor was the spoken reference to Sylvester being put on sedatives).

A Hare Grows in Manhattan (1947)[]

  • Lola Beverly describing Bugs' property at the start was shortened for unknown reasons (possibly time). It's now edited so that she only mentions his swimming pool.
  • The Egyptian cigarette billboard removed the shots of an Egyptian giving another a hotfoot and the victim pointing at the cigar on the ground. The scene is also cropped so the word "CIGARETTES" is not visible.

Hare Ribbin' (1944)[]

  • The general audience ending where The Mad Russian dog shoots himself after being so distraught over Bugs' alleged death that he wishes he were dead was cut.

Hare Trigger (1945)[]

  • A scene of Bugs and Sam shooting six guns at each other on the train was shortened.

Henhouse Henery (1949)[]

  • Henery beaning Foghorn on the head with a hammer was spliced out (a scene that was surprisingly left in on other network TV installment shows of the Looney Tunes cartoons, such as ABC and CBS, which would normally edit out scenes of comic violence involving characters getting hit on the head). This scene was also cut when it was uploaded on The WB's Looney Tunes website.

Hollywood Steps Out (1941)[]

  • Greta Garbo offering a cigarette to Cary Grant, and lighting a match for him using her large shoes, was cut.
  • Harpo Marx giving Garbo a hotfoot and Garbo slowly reacting to the pain was deleted.
  • The version shown on the WB was the reissue version where the scenes of Gary Cooper and Shirley Temple dancing and the ending where Clark Gable kisses Groucho Marx despite finding out that Marx is the woman he's been chasing throughout the short were cut.

Horton Hatches the Egg (1942)[]

  • Similar to the versions shown on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, TNT, and a temporarily-edited version on MeTV, the scene where a fish version of Peter Lorre kills himself after seeing Horton sailing along cuts the suicide gag after the Lorre fish says, "Well, now I've seen everything."

I Taw a Putty Tat (1948)[]

  • The scene of Sylvester posing as a Swedish maid to capture Tweety, only to get a stick of dynamite and end up in blackface and sounding like Rochester ("Uh-oh. Back to the kitchen. I smell something burning") before passing out was cut to make the scene end after the dynamite explodes, similar to the versions shown on Cartoon Network, Boomerang, and MeTV (after initially airing it uncut by mistake).

The Iceman Ducketh (1964)[]

  • Daffy pulling out Bugs' carrot from his gun and getting blasted in the face was cut.
  • The part after Daffy gets turned into an ice statue where Daffy climbs out of the statue, tugs on the gun that's still in there, and gets shot was cut.

A Kiddies Kitty (1955)[]

  • Sylvester getting thrown into the washing machine by Suzanne and coming out as a big ball of fur was removed. Contrast with ABC's version, which left the washing machine part in (despite editing similar scenes in "Baby Buggy Bunny" and "Two's A Crowd"), but cut Suzie using dynamite when playing astronaut with Sylvester.

Kitty Kornered (1946)[]

  • Similar to the version shown on the UK's BBC channel, the sequence where Sylvester and his friends smoke, drink wine, and read comics before Porky barges in to scare them was cut.

Life with Feathers (1945)[]

  • The lovebird thinking of different ways to kill himself after getting thrown out the nest (and deciding that letting a cat eat him is the best idea) was deleted.

Lighter Than Hare (1960)[]

  • The end where Bugs laughs, tunes the radio, and wonders to himself if The Amos 'n' Andy Show is on yet was removed. The short now ends on the close-up of the radio as we hear the robotic Bugs decoy explode.

Lighthouse Mouse (1955)[]

  • The scene where Sylvester runs into the bathroom and ingests pills to fix his supposedly faulty eyesight was cut.
  • The scene where Sylvester grabs the severed wires and gets electrocuted was spliced out.
    • It should be noted that The WB didn't edit the scene that was cut on CBS and ABC (the door sliding open and closed showing Sylvester beating the mouse and Hippety Hopper beating Sylvester) nor did they cut the scene that was edited on Nickelodeon (the mouse using household scissors to cut an electrical wire).

Lumber Jerks (1955)[]

  • One of the Goofy Gophers siphoning gasoline from the delivery truck and getting sick from accidentally swallowing some, was cut.

Martian Through Georgia (1962)[]

  • The scene of the Martian trying to escape the Earthlings calling him a "freak" and a "monster" by putting his space gun to his head and the narrator saying, "If you're an unwanted monster, what are you going to do? Commit suicide? Why not? If nobody loves you..." was cut completely.

Mississippi Hare (1949)[]

  • The opening with the black cottonpickers singing "Dixie" (and Bugs being picked, packed, and shipped onto the boat) was cut. The short now begins as the riverboat prepares to leave and Bugs is inexplicably on the boat. It should be noted that The WB didn't cut the exploding cigar "blackface"/"Camptown Races" dance part that was cut on ABC (nor did they cut the part where Bugs tricks Colonel Shuffle into seeing the fictitious stage show "Uncle Tom's Cabinet", which neither WB nor ABC edited in the short time this cartoon aired on network television), despite that scene also being one of several reasons why this cartoon is rarely shown/banned from American TV.
  • Bugs tricking Colonel Shuffle into thinking that his gun his filled with water, followed by Shuffle almost shooting himself, was cut.

The Mouse-Merized Cat (1946)[]

  • Babbit hypnotizing Catstello to act like Rochester (with Catstello as Rochester calling Jack Benny about being stuck in Harlem at his grandmother's house) was deleted.

The Night Watchman (1938)[]

  • Tommy Cat punching the gangster mice was shortened.

The Old Grey Hare (1944)[]

  • The scene where Baby Bugs smashes his bottle of carrot juice over Baby Elmer's head was deleted.
  • Since the WB was one of many channels that didn't allow the ending cards to be shown, the ending where the title card shakes after elderly Bugs hands elderly Elmer a stick of dynamite after burying him alive was cut (compare with versions shown on the Turner-owned cable channels TBS, TNT, Boomerang, Cartoon Network [barring its appearance on The Bob Clampett Show], and Turner Classic Movies, where they do show the ending card, but it's a reissue that doesn't shake from the explosion).

One Froggy Evening (1955)[]

  • Similar to the version shown on ABC, the scene where the man attracts everyone to Michigan J. Frog by putting up a sign proclaiming "FREE BEER" was cut, making it look like he drew a crowd from the "FREE ADMISSION" sign.

A Pest in the House (1947)[]

  • The whole sequence where the hotel guest is bothered by a man drunkenly singing "How Dry I Am", Daffy vowing to "...muzzle that inebriated canary", and ending up drunk and singing along with him was cut.

Porky's Romance (1937)[]

  • The very end where, after Petunia wakes him from his botched suicide (which, coincidentally, wasn't censored) and Porky has a vision of his horrible marriage to Petunia and runs away was cut to remove Porky returning to retrieve the chocolates and kick Petunia's annoying dog just as the short irises out. The edited version fades out just as Porky goes for the chocolates.

Prince Violent (1961)[]

  • The cartoon is retitled as "Prince Varmint", just like most TV versions made before the original title card was restored on HBO Max, MeTV, and the Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Blu-ray set.

Rabbit Fire (1951)[]

  • Much like "Duck! Rabbit! Duck!" and "Rabbit Seasoning", all the scenes of Daffy getting shot were cut.

Rabbit Romeo (1956)[]

  • Bugs making Millicent kiss a running fan, which she destroys without a scratch and comments, "Hmm, not bad for a beginner", was removed (the goldfish suicide part that was cut on CBS, FOX, and ABC wasn't edited on The WB).

Rabbit Seasoning (1952)[]

  • Much like "Rabbit Fire" and "Duck! Rabbit! Duck!", all scenes of Daffy getting shot were cut.

Rabbit's Feat (1960)[]

  • The part where Wile E's gun blasts him in the face after Bugs moves the sight to the other side of the barrel was removed (the cauldron part that was edited on CBS was retained here).

Racketeer Rabbit (1946)[]

  • All of the gun gags (specifically Rocky shooting his pistol at the police out the window of the house, Hugo needing a board to keep himself standing while firing his machine gun, and Bugs sleepily walking under a line of gunfire and saying, "Low bridge" while getting some milk from the kitchen) were edited from the cartoon's beginning.
  • The scene of Rocky threatening Bugs with a gun to the face to get him to talk, and Bugs babbling like an auctioneer was cut.

Rebel Rabbit (1949)[]

  • The scene during the montage of Bugs destroying America where Bugs trades Manhattan back to the Native Americans and is shown walking through it wearing a feathered headdress and smoking a peace pipe was cut entirely.

The Rebel Without Claws (1961)[]

  • The "damn" in the Confederate Officer's line "Damn Yankees!" was muted.
  • Tweety's line "I tawt I taw a damn Yankee Tat!" was cut.
    • Compare with Cartoon Network and Boomerang's version, which cut the first scene short before the Confederate officer can say "Damn Yankees!" and kept in Tweety's line, but cut it down to "I tawt I taw a...Yankee tat!" with a somewhat obvious jump in the audio.

Rhapsody Rabbit (1946)[]

  • Bugs shooting the coughing audience member before he starts playing the piano was cut. This scene was surprisingly left in on Cartoon Network and Boomerang, despite editing a similar gag of a character shooting an annoying audience member on "Daffy Duck & Egghead".

Scaredy Cat (1948)[]

  • The scene where Sylvester threatens to shoot himself was spliced out (though the other violent scenes, like the hooded mouse almost shooting Porky, weren't cut).

Southern Fried Rabbit (1953)[]

  • The first instance of Sam yelling "Charge!" was removed due to the presence of the Confederate flag.
  • The entire scene of Bugs poses as a black slave to cross the border was cut with a fake fade in to the tree scene after the previous scene ends.

It should be noted that these are the same cuts seen when Cartoon Network and Boomerang aired this short (only Cartoon Network and Boomerang didn't use a fake fade-out to cut the "Bugs as a slave" scene).

A Star Is Bored (1956)[]

Not only was this short edited to remove the two times that Daffy gets shot (while replacing Bugs in a scene with Yosemite Sam and the end where Daffy [in his own movie] gets shot by a group of hunters after delivering his line, "I wonder where all the hunters are today"), but rearranged the parts where Daffy is working as Bugs' stunt double. The sequences of the uncut version went as follows:

  • Daffy stepping in for Bugs during his scene with Yosemite Sam.
  • Daffy, disguised as Elmer Fudd, attempts to saw through Bugs' tree branch, only to fall with the main part of the tree while the branch stays suspended in mid-air from a prop.
  • Daffy, sick of doing all the hard jobs while Bugs gets the soft jobs, replaces Bugs in his fishing sequence, only to be swallowed by a large fish.
  • Bugs doing a forest chase scene with Elmer Fudd and Daffy trying to shoot Bugs through a tree hole only to have the barrel come out of a rabbit hole.
  • Daffy substituting for Bugs during his airplane-flying scene

The edited version on the WB showed the cartoon this way: the third scene (the fishing part) aired first, followed by the second scene (the tree branch sawing), and then the last two scenes (the forest chase and the airplane scene), with the scene with Yosemite Sam cut.

Strangled Eggs (1961)[]

  • Foghorn getting a noose around his neck as he tries to demonstrate a rooster crow to Henery was spliced from this short, though Henery dropping Foghorn into the cauldron of hot water wasn't cut like it was on CBS.

The Stupor Salesman (1948)[]

  • The part where Daffy turns on the gas stove and tries to flick the lighter on was cut (though not Slug McSlug doing the same and the house exploding. It should also be noted that the part that was cut on FOX's The Merrie Melodies Show where Slug McSlug holds a gun to Daffy's stomach and Daffy using a cleaner he's selling to make it shiny, only for the gun to go limp wasn't cut on The WB).

A Tale of Two Kitties (1942)[]

  • Catstello's line "If the Hays Office would only let me, I'd give him the bird alright!" after Babbit tells him to give him "the bird" (Tweety) was deleted.

Tale of Two Mice (1945)[]

  • The toy plane scene was cut to remove Babbitt's line, "If this don't work, then I'll be a jackass!" and Catstello yelling, "Jackass! A jackass! Hee-haw, hee-haw!" after the toy plane crashes.

There Auto Be a Law (1953)[]

  • Similar to the gas siphoning scene in "Lumber Jerks", the scene of the man siphoning gas for a fellow driver, only to swallow too much and start sputtering down the road like an actual car was cut.

Thugs with Dirty Mugs (1939)[]

  • The scene of the tattletale bank teller getting hit in the back of the head was cut.
  • The scene where Officer Flanagan throws cheese to a rat while yelling "Take that you rat!" was inexplicably cut.

Trap Happy Porky (1945)[]

  • The opening shot featuring a sign reading "Uncle Tom's Cabin - Boarders Taken (For All They've Got)" is edited out. The short now starts outside of Porky's window.
  • A brief shot of the cats downing cider during their "Moonlight Bay" number was cut (contrast with "A Pest in the House", which was edited to completely remove a character singing drunkenly, whereas this short left in a scene of characters drunkenly singing, but cut the actual drinking).

The Turn-Tale Wolf (1952)[]

  • One of the pigs chiding the Wolf with "Ah, go blow yer brains out!" after the Wolf asks them why they always torment him was cut. It should be noted that The WB didn't cut the part that FOX cut where the Wolf is briefly shown bootlegging alcohol as his kid comes home from school, nor did they edit out the comedic violence scenes like NBC did.

The Unmentionables (1963)[]

  • The scene in the beginning where a man reporting a crime gets shot in the phone booth cuts off before the man (and the phone booth) are shot by off-screen gunfire (and the operator saying, "Sor-ry, you've been disconnected"), making it obvious that something is missing

The Unruly Hare (1945)[]

  • The part where Elmer has his rifle pointed at Bugs and Bugs tricks him into shooting him with, "Only a rat should shoot a guy in the back" was cut.
The_Unruly_Hare_-_WB_cut

The Unruly Hare - WB cut

A Waggily Tale (1958)[]

  • In Junior's dream of being a dog, the scene where he's thrown into a washing machine by the girl and emerges as a ball of fur was removed.

What Makes Daffy Duck (1948)[]

  • The scene where the fox captures Elmer dressed as a female duck, opens the duck costume ("What kind of a duck is this?"), and gets Elmer's rifle in his face ("Muscwing in on my tewwitowy again, eh? I'm gonna--"), then closes the costume and runs off with Elmer chasing after the fox and yelling, "I'll get you, you cwazy character!" was cut, going from the previous scene where Daffy blows a duck call and alerts the unconscious fox of the disguised Elmer in the lake to Elmer running after the fox and yelling, "I'll get you, you cwazy character."
  • The entire sequence after the fox makes off with Daffy and unplugs the boat, causing it to sink where Elmer scares the fox off by, once again, threatening him with his rifle, Elmer taking Daffy, Daffy begging the fox to come back for him, Elmer slamming Daffy against a pole and going to shoot him, only for the fox to reappear and plug the rifle was completely cut, going from the fox sinking the rowboat to Elmer calling the fox a "doggone cwook" and the two fighting over who gets Daffy before a game warden changes the hunting season from duck to fox.

What's Up Doc? (1950)[]

  • As on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, the antifreeze joke and the part where Elmer holds a rifle to Bugs' mouth after Bugs upstages him were removed.

Wideo Wabbit (1956)[]

  • The sequence where Elmer is on the You Bet Your Life parody show You Beat Your Wife was edited to remove all mentions of the title, a reference to spousal abuse, in the dialogue as well as removing the title of the show on the podium by overlaying a light brown square over the offending title that blinked for a few frames, making the edit obvious to even the most naive viewers. Compare with Cartoon Network and Boomerang's version, which was edited the same way for the same reason, only the digital editing on the podium was of higher quality.

Wild and Woolly Hare (1959)[]

  • The entire sequence of Injun Joe going out to face Sam, only to get shot and for the cowboy next to him to drink the beer he left behind was cut.
  • The sequence where Bugs throws a can in the air to shoot, misses, and shoots Sam in the face, was cut entirely.
  • The gunfight scene edits out more scenes of Sam receiving blasts to the face.

Yankee Doodle Bugs (1954)[]

  • The entire sequence where Bugs tells Clyde about the Dutch trading Manhattan back to the Indians for a song was deleted, going from the Statue of Liberty as a little girl scene to the Benjamin Franklin scene, similar to the versions shown on Cartoon Network and Boomerang. Contrast with the versions shown on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show and on MeTV's Toon In With Me block, which left in the Dutch trading Manhattan back to the Indians part, but cut the part where the Indian takes the song sheet and yells, "Me rich Chief! Me rich Superchief!"
