Merrie Melodies - Greetings Bait

Impersonating Jerry Colonna, the "Wacky Worm" returns in this Academy Award nominated Warner Bros. short from 1943. Mel Blanc on vox, Friz Freleng directing. Keep an eye out for the fisherman at the end...look familiar? A must for all Colonna fans! This is also the first Warner Bros. cartoon to use Raymond Scott music!

Oh yeah, I remember reading about that about March Hare. Didn't know about "Casey at the Bat" though. I looked it up and it turns out he also did "The Brave Engineer". Did you know Mad Hatter was voiced by Ed Wynn? Also love that guy.

@MWolfL He also did the narrator in Disney's "Make Mine Music" in a segment called "Casey At The Bat" and also the voice of March Hare from "Alice In Wonderland".

You and me, both. So stealthy, clever-thinking and never to be eaten by other fish.
