  2. Planned by Tex Avery but was uncredited.[5][6]
  3. Both credited as "The Saff"
  4. Friz Freleng was originally intended to direct the short, but refused to work on it as he was unsatisfied with the story. Though no director was officially credited, Hawley Pratt, Freleng's layout artist, would direct the short in his place.[41][42]
