I think this is one of my favourite McKimson cartoons. While a tad too fast in pace occasionally, it is still hugely enjoyable with a huge amount to like about it. The animation is crisp, clean and smooth, with some gorgeous colours, and the character designs are fine. The music is excellent too, coming across as energetic and quirky, while the dialogue is infectious and the story is great. Bugs is a likable and witty lead and the hillbillies take the support well, and Mel Blanc as he always is is impeccable at the vocal characterisations. What does make Hillbilly Hare though is the square dancing sequence. In every sense, it is simply genius with a fun memorable melody and hilarious lyrics, while the dancing was good too. In short, I concur that it is one of the greatest scenes in cartoon history, let alone in the history of the Looney Tunes cartoons. In conclusion, a fun and enjoyable cartoon. 9/10 Bethany Cox
