Bugs Bunny of "A Wild Hare"). However, Bugs' voice and personality in this cartoon is noticeably different, and his design was slightly altered as well; Bugs' visual design is based on the prototype rabbit in "Candid Camera", but with yellow gloves and no buck teeth, has a lower-pitched voice and a more aggressive, arrogant and thuggish personality instead of a fun-loving personality. After "Pet Rabbit", however, subsequent Bugs appearances returned to normal: the "Wild Hare" visual design and personality returned, and Blanc re-used the "Wild Hare" voice characterization. "Hiawatha's Rabbit Hunt" (1941), directed by Friz Freleng, became the second Bugs Bunny cartoon
The Bugs Bunny Show combined re-edited bridging sequences from both shows to link the seven cartoons featured in each episode. The bridging sequences would be edited further in later versions of the "Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Hour". The verse in the "This Is It" theme song "The night of nights" was retained, despite the fact the show was no longer broadcast in prime time. In 1971, "The Road Runner Show" moved to ABC, and a reconstituted half-hour "Bugs Bunny Show" aired on CBS, featuring re-edited versions of the bridging sequences and a different grouping of cartoons. In 1973, "The Bugs Bunny Show" returned to ABC
