Behind the scenes

It has a canned laugh track.
The act of bribing Scrounger with a treat to do a job and his delighted reaction has been done before:
- Quick Draw McGraw with Snuffles in the Quick Draw McGraw segments. Scrounger and Snuffles will also work for either side just to get a treat.
- Dick Dastardly with Muttley in Dick Dastardly and Muttley in Their Flying Machines. Scrounger also grumbles incoherently like Mumbly when he doesn't get his reward.
- Mystery Incorporated with Scooby-Doo in Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!
