The Bugs Bunny Show was a long-running American television anthology series hosted by Bugs Bunny, that was mainly composed of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons made between 1948 and 1963. The show originally debuted as a primetime ABC program in 1960, with newly produced wraparound segments done by the Warner Bros. animation staff, including Chuck Jones, Friz Freleng, and Robert McKimson. The wraparounds were produced in color, but the original broadcasts of the show were in black-and-white
