Who says "Happy Rabbit"?
[edit]Please provide references to this character as I have never read him referred to as such. How could Tex Avery create him if his first appearance is in Hardaway's Porky's Hare Hunt? Jeff schiller 02:52, 22 August 2006 (UTC)
I've found a source that refers to Happy Rabbit as such: here. - NES Boy 19:31, 28 August 2006 (UTC)
- (I know it has been more than a year, but I only just yesterday found this article, and my computer time then was running low.) The above linked-in source is not good enough to support this article's premise, as it is given just a passing mention in a brief biography of Mel Blanc, with no reference itself. Such authoritative sources as Leonard Maltin's Of Mice and Magic, Joe Adamson's Tex Avery: King of Cartoons and, most compellingly, Jerry Beck and Will Friedwald's Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies: The Complete Illustrated Guide to the Warner Bros. Cartoons all indicate that these shorts feature nameless and more-or-less one-shot (i.e., essentially independent of each other) rabbit characters who evolved into Bugs Bunny. The appearance and voice do vary somewhat from cartoon to cartoon, supporting this (in Jones' Prest-o Change-o, he is all-white and voiceless!). I move that this article be deleted as based on a fundamentally erroneous premise, and the Bugs Bunny article (and any other that mentions "Happy Rabbit") be rewritten to remove the same misinformation and discuss these precursors accurately. (I have posted a notice of my reopening this discussion on the talk pages of both of the above users.) Ted Watson 19:57, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
