Bugs Bunny to appear in numerous Warner Bros. cartoons, making his last "Golden Age" appearance in "False Hare" (1964). He starred in over 167 theatrical short films, most of which were directed by Friz Freleng, Robert McKimson, and Chuck Jones. Freleng's "Knighty Knight Bugs" (1958), in which a medieval Bugs trades blows with Yosemite Sam and his fire-breathing dragon (which has a cold), won an Academy Award for Best Cartoon Short Subject (becoming the first Bugs Bunny cartoon to win said award). Three of Jones' films — "Rabbit Fire", "Rabbit Seasoning", and "Duck! Rabbit, Duck!" — compose what is often referred to
The Bugs Bunny Show more than four decades, and helped inspire animators, comedians, historians, and others who watched Saturday morning television. When Warner Bros. released its video series "Golden Jubilee", featuring the classic cartoons, the opening sequence shows the Tasmanian Devil maniacally riding a motorcycle down a city street, chased by a police car. He makes a sharp turn into a theater, where the rest of the Looney Tunes are performing to the "Bugs Bunny Show" tune. Title sequences and some linking material from the original "Bugs Bunny Show" are included as bonus features on each volume of the "Looney Tunes Golden Collection" DVD
