Girl, we didn't even have a TV then. Maybe some of the folks that didn't come up so poor can shed some light on it.

I do not know when Bugs originated. There was always a cartoon at the beginning of each movie. So it could have been way sooner than being on TV.

I grew up watching old Warner Brothers cartoons. In summer there were three on after the news on chanel 11. We also got them on Saturday's. Since they were cartoons made for theatrical release, they used original music scores played by an orchestra. The scores borrowed a lot from classical music so that any kid watching was becoming musically literate without even trying. It helped me when I took music appreciation in school. I also developed a love for cartoons and animation that has lasted all my life. Especially the classics, which you don't find on TV anymore. When I was a kid I could look at the animation on a Warner Brother's cartoon and tell you who directed it.

But I am full of useless trivia like that. Keeps me from learning better things, like how to balance the checkbook, stuff like that. :roll:

Anyway, I thought Bugs looked like he always does. He did used to fatter in the Tex Avery cartoons.
