Russian Rhapsody
Here is another banned cartoon from my collection. This one is my favorite of all because this is the one that sparked my interest in these cartoons. I further described it here in an older post.
I love political propaganda when media is used and this is really a great cartoon. I hope you enjoy it and please go to the old post to see more info and read the comments
This isn’t really a banned cartoon but it isn’t shown on prime time hours anymore. I first saw this cartoon during the [adult swim] hours of Cartoon Network, the time when little kids are in bed.
Contact me for a download request.

Perhaps someone can help with this. In this cartoon, I am almost positive that the tune that the Gremlins sing was not composed for this cartoon. I’m pretty sure it was a old Russian folk melody or something. Does anyone know its origin?

I actually figured out (with help from Google) what the (two) original songs are. Check out my blog post about it.

[...] So the whole cartoon is about Bugs Bunny screwing around with a German hunter. He fools him buy pretending to be Hitler. And when the German captures Bugs and takes him to Hitler, both Germans are made to be sissys when they run away in fear when Bugs pretends to be Russian ally to the USA, Joseph Stalin. A similar gag was used in Russian Rhapsody. [...]
