== Notes ==
* This is the last Merrie Melodies short that Hugh Harman, Rudolf Ising, and Frank Marsales worked on with Leon Schlesinger. Marsales moved over to the Universal/Walter Lantz studio to compose for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit, while Harman and Ising moved over to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer to open up their cartoon studio.
** It is the last cartoon in the series to have "Get Happy" as the opening theme song.
* This cartoon heavily reuses footage from "A Great Big Bunch of You", released the previous year. This includes the ending "That's all Folks!" card and most other scenes of the mannequin.
* This is also the latest black-and-white Merrie Melodies short to fall in the Associated Artists Productions package of cartoons. The remaining 1933–1934 black-and-white shorts from the series (the ones that started with "I Think You're Ducky" as the opening theme) would fall under the Sunset Productions/Guild Films package.
