| 127 | ** At the beginning of the film, when Eddie Valiant is walking around Hollywood, Bugs Bunny can briefly be seen in the background. |

| 135 | ** Gracie the Kangaroo from "Pop 'im Pop!" makes a cameo at the end of the film, viewed from the back, just as Porky closes the movie. She is colored light brown in this film. |
| 136 | ** The film ends with Porky saying his catchphrase "Th-- Th-- Th-- ThatsAllFolks" |
| 137 | ** There are a few scenes where "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" (the main theme to the Looney Tunes) is performed. Roger sings to the song while entertaining patrons at the bar (which Judge Doom even later calls it "a ''looney'' selection for a group of drunken reprobates"), and Eddie also sings to it in a later scene to make the Toon Patrol weasels laugh themselves to death. |
| 138 | * In ''Film/ZigZag2002'', Singer asks [=ZigZag=] if he sings like Elmer Fudd, although he doesn't. |

| 146 | *** Harry sums up Elaine's explanation for her helping Justin as "the devil made me do it". This ''could'' be a reference to Geraldine Jones's [[CharacterCatchphrase catchphrase]] in comedy routines from ''The Flip Wilson Show'', but given Harry's age and love of cartoons, is more likely a ShoutOut to Yosemite Sam's own ShoutOut to that line. |
| 147 | *** Murphy calls Harry's marbles-on-the-floor plan a ''Looney Tune,'' rather than a real plan after the monster crushes the marbles as it runs over them and she slips on them and hurts her knee. |
| 148 | ** ''Literature/DeathMasks'': One of Harry's many quips about Deirdre's incredibly dangerous hair is that it's a "hairstyle by the Tasmanian Devil". |

| 158 | * In ''Literature/MovingPictures'', the animals who've been [[UpliftedAnimal given enhanced intelligence and speech]] by the magic of Holy Wood include a tough-talking rabbit, who at one point says "What's up, duck?" The mouse is mostly Jerry, but when Victor insists they should have names, he quite likes the idea of being named Speedy Hunter. |
| 159 | * In ''Literature/TheEagleTree'', March is frustrated with the many nonsensical rules he must follow. He thinks, "It is like the Road Runner in those cartoons when Wile E. Coyote ties him up in so many interlocking layers of rope that he looks like a bundle of ropes, with just his beak and his legs sticking out. I am tied up in rule-ropes that people have wrapped me up in so that I cannot do what I must do. But the Road Runner always breaks out of the ropes, and I was going to do the same if I could find my way out." |
| 160 | * ''Literature/SavingMax'': When Marianne says something incriminating against Danielle, Sevillas thinks her attorney looks like Sylvester the Cat with Tweety's tail feathers dangling out of his mouth. |
| 161 | * In ''Literature/LikeNoOtherBoy'', Chris does a Bugs Bunny impression for Tommy. |

| 163 | * In ''Literature/ThePelicanAndAfter'', Tony complains about Rorschach tests where doctors can decide you're sick because you saw Peter Rabbit when they wanted you to see Bugs Bunny. |
| 164 | * In ''Literature/BecauseOfTheRabbit'', Jack tells Emma that a pika is also called a rock rabbit and says in an Elmer Fudd voice, "You wascally wock wabbit!" |

| 195 | ** The Electric Company featured some short animated segments featuring Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner directed by Chuck Jones. These shorts showed the Coyote and Road Runner viewing words for the kids to read.

When he comes to a cliff edge he sees a sign that says "Jump". He jumps over the sign and off the cliff. Then he sees a sign that says "Fall" so Wile E. falls to the bottom, but instead of a splat, he bounces on trampolines with signs that read "Bounce." It was then shown that all the signs were being placed by Road Runner who then sees a sign that says "Beep" so he says his signature "Beep Beep!" |

Road Runner beeps scaring Wile E. having him jump in the air and hanging onto a sign that reads "Road Runner 50 Feet". Road Runner holds up a sign saying "Goodbye" and runs off. |
| 200 | ** In another short Wile E. is chasing the Road Runner and falls on the ground in front of a sign that says "Down" but is pointing up.

| 206 | --->'''Stephanie:''' Let's watch Bugs Bunny.\ |

Then he takes a shot at Bugs. I mean, with all that shooting going on, I don't know why Bugs ever pops his head out of that hole. Let's face it. The rabbit has a death wish.\ |

| 222 | ** In "Too Little Richard Too Late", Joey tries to convince the PTA not to cut art class from Fraiser Street School by saying the he doesn't want to deny the world the next WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse, Bugs Bunny, or Daffy Duck. He then does an impression of Daffy. |

| 534 | * A classic 2001 study about the power of suggestion and the ability of people to develop false memories, spearheaded by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus, involved enlisting volunteers to visit Ride/{{Disneyland}} and Ride/WaltDisneyWorld, then evaluate some ads about the parks. One of the groups was shown an ad that included Bugs, and another group had a cardboard cutout of Bugs placed in the room while they read the doctored ad. Then everyone was asked if they'd seen Bugs Bunny at one of the Disney parks (which, of course, is impossible). Among the ones who'd been exposed to the Bugs ad and[=/=]or cutout, between 30 and 40 percent wrongly said that they'd seen him at Disney, while the percentage was in single digits in the control groups who weren't exposed to the Bugs material. |
