Censorship
The version shown on ABC's The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show edits out the entire beginning in which the camera assumes the point of view of a reporter interviewing Pepe, due to the presence of alcohol and cigarettes[1] (though ABC once aired the 1951 Pepe cartoon "Scent-imental Romeo" left in a similar scene of Pepe opening a bottle of champagne and serving it to the cat uncensored, and Cartoon Network, which censored the champagne part in "Scent-imental Romeo", aired this short uncut).
Notes
- This is the first cartoon in which Penelope Pussycat is given her name, though her name has not been made official yet until the release of "Carrotblanca" (1995); after this cartoon's release, she went under different names/aliases in a few Pepe Le Pew shorts, for example Fifi in "Two Scent's Worth" and Fabrette in "Really Scent".
