Rhapsody Rabbit

 I. Freleng. Rhapsody Rabbit, USA 1946


Very historical short here. As one, it was the first cartoon aired on Cartoon Network, and two, it shares more than a few similarities with the Tom & Jerry short a Cat Concerto

As for the short itself, a beautiful blend of classical music and perfectly written slapstick. Bugs is a pianist this time out and he's trying to put on a show, but a mouse keeps interrupting and stealing the show. 

Pretty good, although like I said the comparisons between this and the MGM short are too many to just be a coincidence.
