1948

1948 marks some personality changes for certain characters that would persist for majority of the classic cartoons, such as the transition of Daffy Duck from a screwball into a greedy, selfish character. Thirty-three cartoons were released this year, several of which were later sold to Associated Artists Productions.
==Notes==
* The color shorts released prior to August 1st of this year (of which "Haredevil Hare" is the most recent) were sold to Associated Artists Productions in 1956, which in turn passed over to United Artists and later to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer before passing to Turner Entertainment and back to Time Warner (now Warner Bros. Discovery) upon their purchase of Turner's library in 1996. The first nineteen shorts released this year wind up in the AAP package while the remainder, as well as all subsequent cartoons, remain in Warner Bros.' possession.
* "You Were Never Duckier" marks a new era as the first post-1948 cartoon.
* Starting with "Bugs Bunny Rides Again", the byline "IN TECHNICOLOR" is changed to "Color by TECHNICOLOR", though Blue Ribbon reissues during this period would use the former byline until mid-1949. A few cartoons released after the short would use the former byline, though they had earlier production codes.
* The Color Rings change to the rings used in the earlier Cinecolor cartoons starting with "Hare Splitter".
* Bugs Bunny makes a cameo in the movie Two Guys from Texas.
