Notes
When Jack Bunny is on the horse, he says, "Buck Bunny rides again!", which almost sounds like "Bugs Bunny".
Censorship
- When this short aired on Cartoon Network and Boomerang (barring its appearance on The Bob Clampett Show), three scenes featuring black stereotyping were cut:
- A scene of black children diving and swimming in a sink
- A short scene of a black boy rushing into a house and hanging a "Quarantine: Measles" sign during the gorilla attack
- The end where the stick of dynamite in Jack Bunny's hands explodes and turns him blackfaced, where he comments, "My, oh my! Tattletale gray!" a la Rochester from The Jack Benny Show
- A local station in San Francisco, California (KOFY) cut the ending similar to Cartoon Network, but only the visual of Jack Bunny in blackface was cut. However, the audio played as normal over a slowed-down "That's All Folks" ending card.
