"Oooh, I'm terribly disappointed in you!"

Yosemite Sam dies and goes to Hell, where the Devil sends him back to Earth in order to get Bugs. It's a "clip show" cartoon, folks. That means footage from older shorts is used here with the only new footage being the parts with Sam in Hell. As you can see from the reviewers before me, this sort of cost-cutting stunt doesn't sit well with many fans. I'm being a bit more forgiving than the other reviewers, however. I know that after you've seen so many of the old classic shorts, you appreciate the great ones more and really hate the cheap lazy ones like this. I totally get that but, to be fair, viewed on its own terms this isn't a terrible cartoon. The average kid who might come across this on television today won't know or care about the fact that it's cobbled together from other shorts. The old footage is fun, after all. The new isn't that hot but I did like the final joke. One thing that really stands out when watching this is that the new animation is really pitiful spliced together with the superior older stuff, before WB animation started to go to...well, Hell.
