From DVDLooney :

1963 wasn't a great year for Warner Bros. cartoons and they were in one of the twilight years of their original studio. Unarguably the worst Bugs Bunny short ever made primarily because it was a cheater (re-using footage from past Bugs Bunny shorts). However, compared to "Hare Breadth-hurry", in my opinion, the saving grace for short is the plot which is when Yosemite Sam meets the head devil.
