The Early Worm Gets the Bird is a 1938 produced, 1940 released Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Tex Avery. The name is a play on the adage "The early bird gets the worm."

Tom, Dick, and Larry, also known as The Dover Boys of Pimento
University, rescue their fiancée, Dainty Dora Standpipe, from Dan
Backslide.

Ding Dog Daddy was a 1942 color Merrie Melodies cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng and written by Tedd Pierce. The title is a play on a popular expression, as in the song "I'm A Ding Dong Daddy From Dumas".

Daffy Duck decides not to fly south for the winter, as he wants to "check up on this winter business" (gesturing to a newspaper he is reading, with a scantily-clad "snow queen" pictured.) All the other ducks tell him "You'll be sorry!", and continue flying south.

A front-page newspaper headline reads: "Crooner quits: Daffy Duckaroo deserts films for wild, wooly west." Daffy becomes a cowboy and woos Indian maid Daisy June. Her Indian boyfriend, Little Beaver, is jealous and goes after Daffy.

Daffy Duck and the Dinosaur is a 1939 Merrie Melodies animated cartoon short directed by Chuck Jones and produced by Leon Schlesinger Productions for Warner Bros. Pictures. The cartoon is notably the first Daffy Duck cartoon directed by Jones. Daffy Duck and the Dinosaur is set in the Stone Age and features Daffy Duck, a caveman named Casper (a caricature of Jack Benny), and his pet Apatosaurus, Fido. As usual, Mel Blanc provides the voice of Daffy here, while Casper is performed by Jack Lescoulie. This is the last cartoon with the Vitaphone intro.

Original description: "Public domain Looney Tunes cartoon featuring Daffy fighting the Nazis."
