- It is notable for being the first short using a theme sequence without the trademark orange Color Rings.
- This intro sequence would later used on Bartholomew Versus the Wheel and Señorella and the Glass Huarache in 1964.
- This short was nominated for an Academy Award, and was the last Looney Tunes short to receive an Academy Award nomination.

(One of my favorite.)

    Heh, I'm wondering if anyone who first saw this on TV saw the "Abstract WB" opening sequence start up and was like "Oh no, not another Speedy vs. Daffy cartoon!" Only to be in for a BIG surprise...

    @@nickp2271 Yeah, it'd have to be someone watching a regular Looney Tunes block and is somewhat unfamiliar with the cartoons' history, and had already seen the "Abstract" logo sequences on those Speedy vs. Daffy cartoons and Rudy Larriva's Road Runner shorts (such as on Nickelodeon in the 1990s or Cartoon Network in the early 2000s.)

    The closing Abstract WB logo which was also used for Bartholomew vs. the Wheel and Señorella and the Glass Huarache with the bell sound effects (mainly Big Ben) and a tricycle horn for the bouncing “O”s in CARTOON only suited this cartoon.

    (1:30) I know this is one of Chuck Jones’ cartoon shorts that has no spoken dialogue throughout, but it seems he couldn’t leave out longtime voice acting great Mel Blanc.

    To be fair the black and white Looney Tunes shorts prior to The Hep Cat didn't have rings either. Therefore this was the 1st color Looney Tunes short to not have the rings.
