Merrie Melodies - Cheese Chasers (1951, animated short)
Cheese Chasers is a 1951 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Chuck Jones and written by Michael Maltese. The cartoon was released on August 25, 1951 and stars Hubie and Bertie, with Claude Cat and a bulldog who is most likely Marc Antony (or a prototype).
Notes:
This is the final Hubie and Bertie short.
This short is similar in concept to the Sylvester short "Life with Feathers", where both feature suicidal animals wanting themselves to get eaten by cats.
The bulldog in this short is most likely Marc Anthony (or a prototype), who would later be paired with Pussyfoot beginning with "Feed the Kitty" the following year.
When Claude closes the door after running out the house, the back of his cheeks are completely yellow when they are supposed to be white.
This is the third time Claude speaks. The first was "The Aristo-cat" and "The Hypo-Chondri-Cat".
This is the second and last time Claude says "Gosh, what a terrible dream," the first was "The Aristo-cat".
Claude had a pocket in his torso but in other shorts he doesn't.
The original title to the cartoon was replaced with a new title card when it was reissued in the 1959-64 season. The original title card most likely used the background of Hubie and Bertie in the giant cheese (as in the "Directed By Charles M. Jones" credit) before it was reissued.
