Mightyzebra This cartoon may be slow moving and dull for some, but personally I found it very entertaining and is one of my new favourites. This cartoon is one of the first with Bugs Bunny (this was made two years after his official debut) and the debut of a minor-ish Looney Tunes character named Beaky Buzzard.This cartoon was a good surprise for me for the following reasons: 1. I was not expecting this to be nearly so old and I enjoyed the old-fashioned humour you have in a few WB cartoons, featured here. I think that the plot along with "old" jokes would work better than the plot along with new jokes.2. I was expecting this to be quite a fast paced, slapstick cartoon, instead I found that hardly any of the jokes featured slapstick (as a whole, all WB cartoons have some slapstick in them) and there were some good verbal jokes inserted in too. It certainly kept my interest going! The other good things about the cartoon were the ever familiar Bugs Bunny in his trick mode (escaping baddies using clever ways) and the introduction of Beaky Buzzard and this was also my first cartoon with him in as well. I will certainly look out for more with him in. The animation was pretty good and overall, I found it a great episode. :-)The cartoon starts with a mother buzzard (vulture to my fellow British) instructing each of her offspring to go and bring some meat back to the nest. She gives her babies serious challenges, such as horse and deer. However, one of her babies does not want to hunt at all (Beaky Buzzard), but he is pushed out of the nest anyway to go and find something. He ends up finding Bugs Bunny, who he is ready to hunt...I recommend this cartoon to people who do not mind old, slightly slow-moving Looney Tunes. Enjoy "Bugs Gets the Boid"! :-) 8 and a half out of ten.

MartinHafer This is an especially memorable Bugs Bunny cartoon thanks to the introduction of the character "Beaky Buzzard"--an inept little vulture who is trying to catch and eat Bugs. The story begins with Beaky's Italian-voiced mom sending her children out to bring back supper. All seem to have left--except for Beaky who says he "ain't interested". She tells him he doesn't have to get anything big--maybe just a nice little rabbit.This cartoon is high on my list because Beaky was a wonderful and cute character. It's really impossible to describe him unless you see him yourself--his wonderful voice and mannerisms are just hilarious! And, this is a rare case where you actually LIKE the guy trying to catch Bugs--he's that cool! Give this cartoon a try and if you like it, there were a few followup toons featuring Beaky.

Lee Eisenberg "Bugs Bunny Gets the Boid" may be partly famous for giving that wascawwy wabbit the form that we know and love today, but even if you don't know that, it's still great to watch. Featuring loopy Beaky Buzzard trying to capture Bugs Bunny as food, they come up with everything here. Probably the coolest part is when Beaky drops Bugs onto a skeleton and Bugs thinks that he personally has gone the way of the dodo! Overall, it's a really neat cartoon. A true classic.I just try to imagine if Beaky Buzzard had appeared in "The Birds". Then again, that doofus didn't stand a chance at scaring the people in Bodega Bay. But he was good for getting knocked silly by Bugs Bunny.

Rusty-34 The inept Beaky Buzzard in this was quite funny, and they brought him back on several different occasions.However, there's one scene that I do not get and I find disturbing, and that is the animal bone gag. What the heck was going on there? We see Bugs Bunny falling over the remains of a buffalo and the remains are in front of him and there was a carrot in the rib cage, he feels the rib cage and the carrot inside. Bugs then cries over it and goes "Gruesome, ins't it?" Did he think he was dead? I have no idea what it was supposed to be.I'd say if you are Bugs fans, stick with stuff like "Rabbit Fire," and the hunting trilogy as well as others.
