You know what was amazing about the Looney Tunes? The link to classic American literature. I think some of the Merry Melodies and Tex Avery cartoons had them too.

"You know what was amazing about the Looney Tunes? The link to classic American literature. " And then for the more discerning highbrow crowd, the Rabbit of Seville, What's Opera Doc, etc!😁

And classical music as well. Carl Stalling used a 50 piece orchestra and turned out on average one score each week for the cartoons.

The classical music was everywhere in those cartoons.

Also Looney Tunes were set to classical music.

I was driving somewhere on a Saturday morning and turned my FM radio all the way to the left and was able to pick the sound from the tv station that was playing Bugs Bunny. The rabbit of Seville.

It was cool.
