Synopsis: In Bugs Bunny’s Easter Funnies, Granny tries to recruit a substitute for the Easter Bunny when he falls ill. Someone has to help deliver Easter baskets and so Bugs Bunny and his pals all volunteer. Each character auditions for Granny. Which Looney Tunes character makes the best Easter Bunny? Viewers will be surprised! Portions of legendary Looney Tunes cartoon shorts are cleverly mixed into the plot of this delightful special including Birds Anonymous, For Scent-imental Reasons, Knighty Knight Bugs, Sahara Hare, Robin Hood Daffy, Rabbit of Seville, Hillbilly Hare and Tweety’s Circus.

Aside from the special, the DVD will also include a bonus short titled His Hare Raising Tale  and three menu-based puzzle games.

Review: This Easter special aired back in the 1970s and was comprised of a little bit of new footage and older cartoon reels.  The basic plot is that Granny needs help from Bugs to distribute Easter Eggs.  She does to the WB lot where Bugs is working on cartoons and has to sit through several 3 minute shorts.  These are edited vintage shorts from the Looney Toons catalog.

This is a great DVD release.  Whenever they take old tv specials and put them on DVD it really excites me.  These are often lost and overlooked for release, so for Looney Toons fans to now have this in their library is quite a treat.  Its enjoyable as any Looney Toons release and we highly recommend.
