HOLLYWOOD DAFFY

Air Date/Released Saturday, June 22, 1946
Station/Studio Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies
Host/Star Daffy Duck

Tourist Daffy Duck arrives in Hollywood and sets out to meet the stars by crashing the gate of "Warmer" Bros. Studios. The obstacle is a Keystone Kop-type studio guard, and the two engage in a series of comic blackouts as the guard attempts to keep Daffy out of the studio. Celebrity caricatures include Bette Davis, Johnny Weismuller, Ann Sheridan, Jimmy Durante and Jack Benny.

Although the studio guard resembles a Keystone Kop, he is not silent... Mel Blanc gave him vocal reactions and mannerisms resembling Joe Besser.


Voice cast: Mel Blanc (Daffy Duck, Studio guard, Jack Benny, Jimmy Durante, Johnny Weissmuller), Bea Benaderet (Bette Davis), Sara Berner (various), Richard Bickenbach (Crosby)

Crew: Friz Freleng (Director), Michael Maltese (Story), Ken Champin, Virgil Ross, Gerry Chiniquy, Manuel Perez (Animators), Hawley Pratt, Paul Julian (Layouts and Backgrounds), Carl Stalling (Music)
