Bugs Bunny im Wilden Westen

Bugs Bunny Rides Again is a 1948 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies short directed by Friz Freleng, and written by Tedd Pierce and Michael Maltese.[1] The short was released on June 12, 1948, and stars Bugs Bunny and Yosemite Sam.[2]

The short is both a Western and a parody of the genre's conventions.[3]

Voice characterizations are performed by Mel Blanc. It is the third cartoon to pair Bugs and Yosemite Sam, after Hare Trigger (1945) and Buccaneer Bunny (1948). The title is a typical Western reference, as in "The Lone Ranger rides again", and also suggests a reference to the Jack Benny comedy, Buck Benny Rides Again (1940).[4]
