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
