"Baby Buggy Bunny" is as you certainly guessed correctly already from the title another Warner Bros. cartoon. This one's from 1954, so over 60 years old already. It runs for seven minutes and on board are Jones, Maltese and Blanc, so everything as usual you could say. But the plot twists and action in here are a bit more than usual when it comes to these cartoons for sure. Also Bugs getting his ass handed to him is not something, you will see too often really, even if it is only the case in the first half. Other than in here, the character of baby lookalike bank robber Finster (actually the German word for gloomy that may describe the man's character nicely) was not used anymore I think, but for a character stupid enough to shave while Bunny could see him more films would also have been fairly undeserving. And of course, he kinda looks a lot like a second Elmer Fudd too. Still this one here is far from forgotten and among the more known Warner Bros cartoons from the Golden Age of Animation. I personally felt it was a solid little watch and despite moments of greatness and really funny scenes missing, I give it a thumbs-up. Go check it out.

. . . by a Pandemic of Political Correctness, Classic Looney Tunes such as BABY BUGGY BUNNY always serve to illuminate a Path to RE-ENLIGHTENED Times. Back in Grandpa's Day, there was a song about "Short People," such as Bugs Bunny's antagonist here, bank robber Ant Hill Harry (a.k.a., Baby Face Finster), 35. "Short people got no reason--short people got no reason--to live," I believe that lyric goes. (It's amazing what you can hear on a tiny turntable from a .45 vinyl record collection gathering dust in the attic these past few decades.) From THE WIZARD OF OZ to THE GAME OF THRONES, normal people usually find themselves drawing the short straw in any contest with the vertically-challenged. Warner exposed nearly all of Today's Sacred Cows for the threats that they actually represent to the Common Man during the Looney Tunes Golden Days. At last count, 14,263 adjectives used to describe people by Shakespeare, Twain, and Steinbeck have been Black-Listed by the Thought Police. American Schools used to teach Great Thoughts. Today that's been shortened to Grey Thoughts, as in the drab gray stale society of the baby-killers in the recent release, THE GIVER.

Chuck Jones' 'Baby Buggy Bunny' is a funny cartoon with a nice concept which never quite reaches the levels of hilarity you feel it should. Bank robber Baby Face Finster disguises himself as a real baby in order to retrieve his stolen money from Bugs Bunny's rabbit hole. Adopted by an unwitting Bugs, he goes to violent lengths to liberate his cash from the rabbit. The best part of 'Baby Buggy Bunny' is the first section in which a surprisingly easily duped Bugs is brutalised by Finster who reverts back to baby mode whenever Bugs questions it. However, the sequence where Bugs turns the tables after catching Finster shaving is far too short and unfunny. By the time Bugs catches Finster shaving, it's already too late in the cartoon for him to do much in retaliation. His revenge really needed to be as brutal as Finster's treatment of him had been to achieve a satisfactory laugh level. Instead, he quickly turns him over to the police and the cartoon simply peters out with a below par wisecrack. 'Baby Buggy Bunny' was one of my favourite cartoons as a child and I still enjoy it today, only now it also leaves me with a sense of dissatisfaction.

"Baby Buggy Bunny" is a fairly good Bugs Bunny cartoon directed by Chuck Jones. Around the midfifties, Bugs was becoming a more refined rabbit, particularly in the Jones-directed cartoons. In this episode, Bugs adopts what he thinks is a sweet, innocent baby named Finster. "Finster," it turns out, is a two-foot cigar-chomping mobster named Ant Hill Harry, who inflicts all kinds of physical abuse on Bugs.This film offers only a couple of memorable sequences. In the beginning, when Bugs gets bonked on the head with Finster's satchel of stolen money, he becomes overjoyed with his discovery. And in the end, when Bugs finally learns who "Finster" really is, it's nice to see Bugs get revenge on him; spanking him on the bottom reveals a pistol, a blackjack, a machine gun, a hand grenade, and several bullets."Baby Buggy Bunny" does not compare with the Bugs Bunny cartoons of the 1940s, but no matter. In spite of the fact that Bugs is much more refined in this short, he still manages to get his laughs.
