We’d be remiss if we didn’t post this here, just to continue a bit of a meme if nothing else. Posted on Mark Mayerson’s blog and Cartoon Brew yesterday, here’s an archive interview with Chuck Jones and Friz Freleng circa 1980.
For more background on the show, refer to Mark Mayerson’s post on the subject. I also enjoy how annoyed Friz seems to get at Yost’s uninformed questions…it seems Friz isn’t used to talking to fans, but willing to.

Warren Leonhardt spent too much time watching tv, reading comics, or doodling in his math textbooks to really pay attention, but he thinks he was raised the Kootenays of British Columbia by two grownups and a sister. After realizing that cartoons and animated films don’t make themselves but were actually made by people, he decided to become one of those people. Over time he’s managed to fool companies like House of Cool, Disney Canada, Spümcø, Sony Pictures Animation, Blue Sky Studios and Corus into actually paying him money to draw funny pictures and generally goof around as a storyboard artist for animated features and television. He currently lives in Collingwood, Ontario, Canada with his long-suffering wife and toddler. In between drawing till his hand falls off and fending off the wildlife invading his property, he interviews people more interesting than himself for CAR.CA.
