Behind the scenes
- The title is a pun on the TV series People are Funny.
- This is the first of the only two cartoons directed by Robert McKimson to pair Bugs and Daffy; the other is the 1963 Looney Tunes short, The Million Hare.
- This is the last Merrie Melodies cartoon of 1959, and last Warner Bros. cartoon to be released in the 1950s.
- The scene involving Bugs tricking Daffy to set involving Native Americans as an usher shares similarities with Wideo Wabbit, where he does the same trick to send Elmer Fudd into a show.
Errors
- When this cartoon was first released on the Looney Tunes Super Stars' Daffy Duck: Frustrated Fowl DVD, it had been cropped to a 16:9 widescreen format. It was later restored with its original aspect ration on the Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Collection Blu-ray set.
Home availability
