Die, Sweet Roadrunner Die is the 26th episode of Seth MacFarlane's Cavalcade of Cartoon Comedy. It is a parody of the Warner Bros. theatrical shorts starring Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, and was released on DVD and Blu-ray on May 12, 2009.

After finally capturing the Road Runner, Wile E. contemplates on what else to do with his life.

Memorable quotes

Wile E.: Holy shit. I did it! He's under there. I got him. I fucking got him.

Wile E.: Hmmm... Oh, this is delicious. I mean, you know, it's like when you work for your meal when you really work for it. It just tastes that much better, you know.
Coyote: So, what are you going to do now?
Wile E.: Huh... Never really thought about it... Been chasing this damn bird for 20 years, and... not really trained for anything else. I guess I kind of let my life get away from me.
Coyote: Well, I'm sure something will turn out...

Wile E.: And then, all of the sudden, it hit me! I knew who I wanted to be. And I untied myself from that catapult, and here I am.
Coyote: Well, that is such a relief.
Wile E.: I know, I know... So, if you have about 45 minutes, I'd like to talk you about the Lord, Jesus Christ.
Coyote: Oh, shit...
