Merrie Melodies - Bugs Bunny Rides Again (1948)

The title is a typical Western reference, as in "The Lone Ranger rides again", and also suggests a reference to the 1940 Jack Benny comedy, Buck Benny Rides Again. It could also be a reference to the Western film “Destry Rides Again”, in which James Stewart, as Destry, cleans up the fictional town of Bottleneck. Coincidentally, a minor character in the film is nicknamed “Bugs”.
