First appearance of Tweety Bird.
The pink bird in this short is an early version of the character Tweety. Early model sheets for this short indicated that Tweety's original name was "Orson," though he is never specifically referred to that in the film. Later, after censors complained that the pink bird looked naked because he had no feathers, Tweety's color was changed to yellow.
"If the Hayes office would only let me, I'd give him the bird alright," refers to the Hayes Code, which set the guidelines for content that can be allowed in a motion picture.
Tedd Pierce, who provided the voice of "Babbitt", was one of the top writers in the Warner Bros. cartoon department, responsible for writing many of the studios' most fondly remembered cartoons, including Elmer's Candid Camera, The Dover Boys at Pimento University or The Rivals of Roquefort Hall and Dough for the Do-Do, among many others.
