1958

1958 would mark the year where several staff members from the studio would retire or quit for other ventures. Carl W. Stalling would score his final set of cartoons, while a musician strike leads to six cartoons having stock music from the Capitol Hi-Q library. Meanwhile, Bugs Bunny would win his only Oscar in "Knighty Knight Bugs".

* All cartoons from this year had blue Color Rings with the WB zooming shield.
* Carl W. Stalling retires from composing music for the series.
** Shortly after Carl Stalling retired, due to a musicians strike later this year, Milt Franklyn was not able to compose music for 6 cartoons; he returned to compose the music in "Cat Feud". As a result, stock music was used from "Weasel While You Work" to "Hip Hip Hurry".
