Notes[]
- "The Grim Rabbit" was adapted from a storyreel for a cancelled theatrical short pitch titled "Your Bunny or Your Life" that ended up being treated as a pilot for the series. The original storyreel shows Carl successfully reaping Bugs's soul, revealing Bugs is barred from Heaven for various sinful actions in classic shorts (including wearing blackface) and banned from Hell because of the devil refusing to put up with his trickery. With nowhere to go, Bugs is allowed to live again.[1]
