The Scoreboard

A Character Appears in Drag

Cross-dressing is an important part of the Warner universe, especially for Bugs Bunny. A local art-house theatre in my area has done a "Bugs in Drag" retrospective several times now. Armed with this list, you can make your own! [I didn't count cases where a character is shown wearing unexpected clothing purely for comic effect - to make this list, they actually must present themselves as a female character to another character in the cartoon. So Bugs as the shoe customer in "Hare Conditioned" counts, but when the store manager appears in lingerie later, it doesn't.]

A Major Character Dies at the End

But don't worry, they'll be back in time for the next cartoon.

A Character Holds Up a Sign For the Audience

A Real-World Person Appears in Caricature

Bugs Gets Lost Underground

"I knew I shoulda taken that left toin at Albuquerque"

Raymond Scott cues

Written by Michael Maltese
