The roughest, toughest hombre to come out of the West...with the longest ears, to boot.
"Buckaroo Bugs" shows Bugs as the typical anti-hero who tangles with cowboy "hero" Red Hot Ryder (who has a nose to rival Bugs' ears) who, in turn, seeks out the Masked Marauder after he steals a town's carrots from their victory garden (hmmm...wonder who that could be?).
Of course, Bugs gets involved and repeatedly humiliates old Red Hot (twice with a magnet and once with a Western Bunions telegram). But what can you say about a hero whose bravest -and smartest- feature is his horse?
Chuck Jones gets in some pretty racy visual jokes for a cartoon and Mel Blanc makes Bugs' wiseacre potshots and Red Hot Ryder's naivete-bordering-on-stupidity all the funnier.
Ten stars for "Buckaroo Bugs". Yee-haw!
