The title of the single greatest Warner Brothers cartoon. I'll steal it! No one will ever know!

I'm sure somebody's favorite is a Freleng short, but I wonder how many would rank a McKimson the highest? Nothing against either, but Jones and Clampett do dominate people's favorites. Favorite Avery shorts tend to be MGM-era too.
Dominic Powell
The Impatient Patient

Wasn't there an exorcist parody with Daffy? And Invasion of the Body Snatchers that was a meta joke about cheap animation? Did Warner Bros. just kind of go through a horror phase?
Ryder Diaz
well it's definitely up there in the top 20 to 50 I'd say(which says something considering how many of the damn things were made

Friz Freleng's best cartoons kill in a theatre. He had the best sense of timing, especially to music, in the business.
I'm not sure I'd go for one of his as #1 but the early Yosemite Sams like Bugs Bunny Rides Again and High Diving Hare, and some of his classical music cartoons, have a claim.
I had a friend whose favorite was Coal Black and De Sebben Dwarfs and it is, truly, amazing, even if we'll never see a good official copy of it. It's to Clampett what The Dover Boys is to Jones, a perfect distillation of what made the director special, using human characters instead of funny animals. Too bad about the lips. (Also Jones' Inki cartoons are great but will never be seen again for the same reasons.)
