Saturtainment: The Ant & The Aardvark in Isle of Caprice (1969)

Friz Freleng and his staff at DePatie-Freleng couldn't resist borrowing some old Bugs Bunny gags for this Ant & The Aardvark entry, "Isle of Caprice". Sub Charlie Ant (John Byner) for Bugs, and the Aardvark (Byner) for Yosemite Sam, and you'll get the idea.



Bugs did it better.

Rating: B.

Friz had a habit of re-using premises and gags for his various shorts. I admire Freleng as one of the true talents of Termite Terrace, but I admit to gritting my teeth whenever he would do this.

Ditto. Of course, we're a little more learned now than we were when we first saw this.
