Rock-a-Bye Bear is a 1952 short directed by Tex Avery.
Notes:
The plot of this cartoon is fairly similar to the Tom and Jerry short "Quiet Please!" with Tom being threatened to be quiet by Spike or else be pulverised and Jerry overhearing and trying to get Tom in trouble.
The running gag of the character having to rush outside to a distance away from the building to keep the noise away was also used in the Tom and Jerry short "Royal Cat Nap" and the Droopy short "Deputy Droopy".
This is the second cartoon where Butch gets to win in the end.
Last MGM cartoon to use the 1946 all red MGM Cartoon title.
MeTV aired a previously unreleased restored print of the cartoon on "Toon In with Me". This restoration was later released on Tex Avery Screwball Classics: Volume 3.
