Fun Bit o' Trivia: this short's title came from audience's response to the first Road Runner short, "Fast and the Furry-ous". After "Furry-ous"'s release, trainee Air Force pilots had started shouting "Beep, Beep" to one another during flight maneuvers, so Chuck Jones knew exactly what to call the second RR cartoon.
