What happens

The Merrie Melodies Show was an animated anthology television series released to syndication by Warner Bros. Television in 1972. Each half-hour episode featured three shorts from the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies library, primarily those produced after 1960 and featuring Speedy Gonzales, Sylvester and Daffy Duck. This series is not to be confused with the Warners' later syndicated anthology Merrie Melodies Starring Bugs Bunny & Friends. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
