  • Looney Tunes: In the 1943 short What's Cookin, Doc?, Bugs Bunny greets various celebrities as he attends the Academy Awards, starting with "Hey, Cecil B."
  • Tiny Toon Adventures features a recurring film director character named Cooper DeVille, whose name is inspired by DeMille, as well as a pun on the automobile brand Coupe DeVille. He is mentioned in the episode "Sepulveda Boulervard" — appropriately enough, a parody of Sunset Boulevard, in which DeMille played a major role.
