A Star Is Bored is a 1956 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon, directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on September 15, 1956, and stars Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck. In the short, Daffy Duck must double for Bugs in any slapstick that Warners considers too dangerous for its star Bug Bunny.
Dialogue
Producer: [on the phone] Yeah. Yeah, I know we need a double on the Bugs Bunny picture, but where can I get anyone stupid enough to take the job?
Daffy Duck: Okay, boss, hang up. A star is born, and that star is me!
Producer: [on the phone] I'll call you right back. I...I think I got a pigeon.
Daffy Duck: Pigeon? I'm not a pigeon. I'm a duck. D-U-K, duck. Loaded with talent. I do card tricks and impersonations. I work at weddings, bar mitzvahs...Have tux, will travel.
[Last lines]
Daffy Duck: I wonder where all the hunters are today? [gets blasted by the hunters] I DEMAND TO KNOW WHO WROTE THIS SCRIPT?!
[As it turns out, the one responsible for writing the script was Bugs Bunny]
Bugs Bunny: I'd like to tell him, but, [chuckles] modesty forbids.
