 Whoa, Be-Gone!
comment
Whoa, Be-Gone! is a 1958 Chuck Jones-directed cartoon from the Merrie Melodies series, starring Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })After an unsuccessful chase with a rocket and a fall down a canyon, Wile E. Coyote devises new plans to get the Road Runner on his menu, like a plank and a rock, a Sniper Rifle (with a trampoline for support), a huge rubber band tied between two rocks, fireworks inside a barrel, a high wire structure while donning a helmet with a caster wheel, TNT rigged below a bridge, and finally, ACME Tornado Seeds.

Binomium ridiculus: Wile E. is called "famishius vulgaris ingeniusi" while the Road Runner is called "birdius high-ballius". Accompanying the taxonomy are two red arrows pointing to each of the duo.

Acme Products: Wile E. orders an ACME-brand giant rubber band ("for tripping road-runners") and ties it around two rocks on either side of the road. However, one twang of the band and it recoils and causes the boulders to smash into him on both sides. Near the end of the cartoon, Wile E. uses some ACME Tornado Seeds in hopes of trapping his prey in a huge tornado. Unfortunately, all of the water in his water pistol falls out from the bottom and onto the entire jar of seeds, creating a tornado which catches the Coyote instead.

comment
Bowdlerization: On ABC, two scenes were cut note up until an airing on March 11, 2000 on The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show, which had these scenes intact: Wile E. getting electrocuted by the wire on which he was trying to balance his wheel-head. The scene faded to black right before the wire lands on the power lines, ending the scene just after Wile E. hits the ground.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })
