Slappy

Slappy Squirrel is a grumpy cartoon veteran squirrel with an Italian accent, who starred in metafictional Looney Tunes cartoons as Slappy, The Slap-Happy Squirrel. Today, she lives in a tree with her cute and chipper nephew, Skippy Squirrel. Often, she faces old enemies from her past, like Walter Wolf. Other situations see her facing common nuisances, like annoyingly perky neighbors (I Got Yer Can) and Skippy's emotional traumas (Bumbie's Mom). Usually she solves her problems with exaggerated cartoon violence,even blasting of the Warners' annoying new nanny out of Warner Bros. Studio when the Warners could not do it themselves because of their moral beliefs (The Sound Of Warners), ending the cartoon with her famous line, "Now that's comedy!" The music played during the title card of her segments is an excerpt from Antonín Dvořák's "Humoresque".
