Egghead Rides Again is a 1937 Merrie Melodies Warner Bros. film directed by Tex Avery.

Plot

Energenic Egghead is bouncing around pretending to be a cowboy until his obnoxious cadence gets him kicked out of the apartment complex he's living in. While on the street he finds an ad for a wanted cowboy in Wyoming. He applies and goes through various training sessions, but fails them all. Egghead, believing uselessness decides to leave, but the expert cowboys give him a different job: cleaning up after the cows and horses.

Trivia

This is the first appearance of Egghead, who many think later evolved into Elmer Fudd.[1] His voice and personality would vary from cartoon to cartoon. In this film, he's very Daffy Duck-like, and even speaks with a voice resembling Daffy Duck's. Mel Blanc provided the voice of Egghead, and Billy Bletcher voiced some of the cowboys.
