While in a coma after a horrible automobile accident

Blanc was recovering in the hospital, and the doctors were having difficulty getting him to talk. So one of the doctors asked him, "Bugs? Bugs Bunny? Are you there?". In Bugs Bunny's voice, Mel responded "What's up, Doc?". After talking with several other characters, they eventually led Mel out of his coma.

If that isn't true, it ought to be.

Great story, PT.
During the last few months I've weekly been selectively enjoying (timer recording, then later viewing just whatever happens to appeal to me) the Saturday morning 3-hours block of classic (1930s onward) cartoons that MeTV has been showcasing. Bugs Bunny and Friends weekly comprises the third hour.
Popeye & Pals (7-8a.m., Eastern)
The Tom & Jerry Show (8-9a.m., Eastern)
Bugs Bunny and Friends (9-10a.m., Eastern)
Mel Blanc certainly was a very talented and entertaining animation voice actor.
