In it, the Bear family (Paw, voiced by Billy Bletcher; Maw, voiced by Bea Benaderet; and Joonyer, first voiced by Kent Rogers and later by Stan Freberg) is hungry.
The Bears starred in three more Jones-directed cartoons, two of which came out in 1949 and one in '51, for a total of five.
Famous Studios directly copied the Bears' family situation in their Baby Huey series, which became a long-running comic book at Harvey Comics — although the imitation is a pale one.

In fact, the name of the series itself, Looney Tunes, was a blatant swipe of Disney's Silly Symphonies.
The Looney Tunes, directed by Harman, continued to star Bosko, while Ising's Merrie Melodies featured lesser stars (such as Foxy, who looked even more like Mickey than did Bosko), or, more often, no stars at all.
In this half-hour TV series, the Looney Tunes characters have retired from acting and are instructors at Acme Looniversity; and their students, who include Plucky Duck, Hamton Pig, Babs & Buster Bunny and others, are the stars of the show.

 The Three Bears (Looney Tunes) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Three Bears are animated cartoon characters in the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons.
Jones' bears as introduced in the short are perhaps the first film satire of the American nuclear family and how its traditional roles were coming under increasing scrutiny in the 1940s.
The Bears' cartoons most significant impact was perhaps on Jones himself, as these films (along with the Hubie and Bertie and Charlie Dog shorts) represent some of Jones' earliest work that was intended to be funny rather than cute and Disneyesque.

 DVD Breakdown | Looney Tunes Golden Collection
The Warner Bros. vaults house a treasure trove of some 1100 Looney Tunes cartoons, and after putting in occasional appearances as supporting shorts on DVD releases of Warner movie classics, 2003 finally saw the first dedicated collection of Bugs, Daffy, Porky and the other beloved characters.
A first selection of Looney Tunes cartoons was first released on DVD in late 2003.
Two separate box sets were released for Region 1: a four-disc 'Golden Collection' featuring 56 cartoons and plentiful extras, and a more budget-friendly two-disc 'Premiere Collection', with the 28 cartoons from the third and fourth disc of the other set, but without any extras.

For anyone who grew up watching Looney Tunes (and just who among you weren't introduced to classical music through them?), it's the perfect start to what will hopefully be the first of many more Looney Tunes collections to come.
Though the release of this 4-disc box set conveniently falls just a couple of weeks before "Looney Tunes: Back in Action" hits theaters (November 14th), animation fans should be rejoicing.
There's three shorts in the Behind-the-Tunes menu; A Rabbit For All Seasons, Forever Befuddled and Short-Fuse Shootout plus excerpts from The Bugs Bunny Show and a recording session with Mel Blanc.

These DVD sets still have a ways to go before LaserDisc fans need start to worry about their Golden Age Of Looney Tunes box sets becoming obsolete, though the versions found here truly are superior, with pristine prints brushed up and looking as good as new.
This all too brief seven minute Behind The Tunes featurette, taken from Cinema Arts’ 1970s footage, has Avery explaining his various tricks of his particular brand of cartoon trade, from where the “What’s Up Doc?” expression came from, to his days at MGM and King Sized Canary.

 The DVD Journal | Reviews : The Looney Tunes Golden Collection
Only two of Disc Three's shorts are non-Jones selections, and several are less than the best of their type.
Filmed ten years after Warners had dismantled their animation unit, it offers an excellent background on the Looney Tunes creators and features interviews with both Jones and Freleng.
The rest of the extras are less impressive — 12 new featurettes are offered under the heading Behind the Tunes, each touching on a character or creator with a skimpy three or four minute, hit-and-run clip and sound bite nugget.

His employees include many of the familiar Looney Tunes gang, such as familiar types like Elmer Fudd and Porky Pig, but also less recognizable characters like Pete Puma, Chuck Jones’ Three Bears, and Hubie and Bertie.
Old-time Looney Tunes who feel like the old days cannot be revisited will find this as overly modern as they expected, but those who simply enjoy seeing the characters in whatever they appear in can enjoy this tale, even if it is by now overly familiar.
With all the other versions of A Christmas Carol available, all the classic Looney Tunes cartoons to watch, and all the great Christmas specials one already has to choose from, this one seems a little superfluous.
