Rabbit of Seville

Trivia: Bugs' line of "Eh, next!" at the very end of the cartoon is the only spoken line of dialogue. The rest of both his and Elmer Fudd's lines are all sung.

Trivia: Elmer Fudd's voice is only heard twice in the short. The first time is his painful reactions when Bugs fiercely slashes the razor across his face, and the second is when he sings "Oh, wait till I get that wabbit!" when he retrieves his hunter's hat and rifle to find Bugs.

Trivia: When we see Bugs massaging Elmer's head in time to the piano melody, his hands are drawn with five digits instead of the usual four, to match the hand of a piano player.

Trivia: At the beginning of the cartoon, we see a poster for the "Barber of Seville". On the poster, there are three names featured: Eduardo Selzeri, Michele Maltese and Carlo Jonzi. These are Italianised names of Eddie Selzer (producer), Michael Maltese (writer) and Chuck Jones (director).

Continuity mistake: Bugs is wearing his wedding suit during "The Marriage of Figaro" scene, but when he says "Next!" at the end of the short, he is back to wearing his barber's outfit.
