Behind the scenes

  • This is one of two shorts that utilize the Capitol Record songs sung by Mel Blanc.
  • This short was shown before the film Happy Feet Two.
  • Due to Mel Blanc's death in 1989, no new lines featuring his voice were recorded. Instead, many of Sylvester and Tweety's lines are archival recordings from the original cartoons they originate. The song used for the short is the original recording as sung by Blanc, but with new orchestrated music.
  • This is the final Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon to feature the voice of June Foray as Granny, and was produced before Foray's death on July 26, 2017.
  • For this short, Daffy's Rhapsody, and Flash in the Pain, another Warner Bros. Animation intro sequence is used, again resembling a CGI version of the original Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies opening.

Critical reception

Legacy

  • Another Capitol Record album sung by Mel Blanc, Daffy's Rhapsody, would get a theatrical short of its own.
  • The Sylvester and Tweety scenes in Flash in the Pain re-uses the background setup from this short.
