Bugsy and Mugsy is a 1957 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon directed by Friz Freleng.[2] The short was released on August 31, 1957, and stars Bugs Bunny, with Rocky and Mugsy.[3] Bugs discovers that two robbers are hiding out on the floor above him, and plays them off against each other. The cartoon is a remake of the 1950 Merrie Melodies short Stooge for a Mouse, in which a mouse pitted Sylvester and Mike (a bulldog) against each other in the same way.
