Foghorn Leghorn is the name of a character appearing in numerous Warner Brothers animated cartoons, especially Looney Tunes. He is a large, anthropomorphic adult rooster with a strong Southern accent and a penchant for mischief. He first appeared in 1946 in a Henery Hawk film entitled Walky Talky Hawky. All of the motion picture Foghorn Leghorn cartoons were directed by Robert McKimson, and he vies with the Tasmanian Devil as the most popular character associated with the director.

Many of the gags involved Foghorn and a canine nemesis (informally known as the "Barnyard Dawg", though on early model sheets his name is given as George P. Dog) engaging in one-upmanship through a series of pranks. Most common among them was Leghorn's taking up a plank of wood, while ambling along humming "Camptown Races," (the only intelligible words being "Doo-DAH! Doo-DAH!") and, coming to the sleeping Dawg with his front half inside his doghouse, picking up his tail and rapidly whacking (almost always with eight strokes) his exposed rear end. The dog would give chase, usually with his leash still attached to his collar, until it was stretched taut and his barking was replaced by an anguished shriek, although in rare cases it's the dog that starts the series of pranks and as such it is somewhat difficult to tell who started the feud. This gag was passed down to the Leghorn's grandson in Feather Bluster, where Foghorn was puzzled as to why the kid was behaving that way and the Dog was all too happy to remind him: "Ain't nothin' wrong with 'im, Foggy, 'cept that he takes after you."

Other recurring themes throughout the cartoons included the attempts of the diminutive Henery Hawk to catch and eat Foghorn, and the rooster's efforts to woo the widowed hen Miss Prissy (often by babysitting her bookish son, Egghead Jr).

Foghorn's voice was created by actor Mel Blanc, patterned after the character of Senator Claghorn, a blustering Southern politician who was a regular character on the Fred Allen radio show. Senator Claghorn was created and voiced by radio comedian Kenny Delmar. Foghorn Leghorn used a number of Claghorn's catch phrases, like "That's a joke... I say, that's a joke, son". The references to Claghorn were obvious to much of the audience when the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons first premiered, but like many of the references in WB cartoons of the era, they have since become dated and "go over the heads" of most modern-day audiences. A toddler version of Foghorn made an appearance in Baby Looney Tunes.

A leghorn is a breed of chicken, and foghorn describes the character's loud, overbearing voice. At its most raucous, it sounds similar to that of Blanc's Yosemite Sam.

Walky Talky Hawky Walky Talky Hawky is a Henery Hawk/Foghorn Leghorn animated short film from Warner Bros. ...


08/31/46 Robert McKimson


Academy Award-nominated cartoon. Foghorn was first seen in this cartoon and was merely intended as a costar for already-established star Henery. Walky Talky Hawky introduced several gags which would be used throughout future Foghorn Leghorn offerings such as a Foghorn vs. Dawg "prank war", a loud "ahhh shudyap!", Dawg running out of rope, and Foghorn claiming not to be a chicken (he says he is a horse). At the end, Henery winds up dragging off a horse, Dawg and Foghorn since "one, just ONE of these things has got to be a chicken!". MM Foghorn Leghorn, Henery Although he never won an Oscar for any of his movie performances, the comedian Bob Hope received two honorary Oscars for his contributions to cinema. ...


Crowing Pains


07/12/47 Robert McKimson


Sylvester the Cat and Dawg are enemies in this cartoon, who become entangled with Foghorn's attempts to confuse Henery. Once again the young and inexperienced Henery is out looking for a chicken but isn't sure what a chicken looks like. Henery decides to determine who is a chicken (Foghorn Leghorn, Sylvester or Dawg) by watching to see who crows at sunrise. It ends with the crowing seeming to come from Sylvester. Henery drags him away. But then you see Foghorn Leghorn crowing out the side of his beak. Then he looks at a book: How to be a Ventriloquist. Then he says "Ah say, you gotta stay on your toes. Toes that is." LT Foghorn Leghorn Sylvester in Tweety and the Beanstalk. ...


The Foghorn Leghorn


10/09/48 Robert McKimson


After Henery's pop tells him that Foghorn isn't a chicken, but is a "loud-mouthed shnook", Henery goes looking for a real chicken. In a bit of a reversal of the usual plotline, Foghorn spends the rest of the cartoon trying to convince Henery that he is a chicken. In the end Henery decides that he'll take Foggy home for dinner - not caring whether he's really a chicken or a shnook. MM Foghorn Leghorn, Henery, Dawg


Henhouse Henery


07/02/49 Robert McKimson


A standard Foghorn Leghorn cartoon with the standard elements: Henery Hawk looking for a chicken, several verses of Camptown Races, Foggy and Dawg having a "prank war" in which Foggy gets ahead early but eventually loses, Foggy sends Henery after something other than himself (ducks, turtles), and in the end Dawg and Henery work together to bag Foggy. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Henery


The Leghorn Blows at Midnight


05/06/50 Robert McKimson


This offers many items in the standard Foghorn Leghorn formula: Dawg and Foghorn in prank wars, Henery looking for a chicken, but unsure what a chicken is, and Foghorn telling Henery that Dawg is what he wants (a pheasant). In addition to the usual "Camptown Races," Foghorn also sings "Old MacDonald" and (briefly) "A Hunting We Will Go." One highlight involves Foggy putting fake "vanishing cream" on Henery, who then thinks his is invisible as he proceeds to sneak up on Dawg. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Henery, Dawg


A Fractured Leghorn


09/16/50 Robert McKimson


Foghorn and "Barnyard Cat" spend most of the time fighting over a worm (Cat wants it for fishing, Foggy wants it for lunch). Foggy is at his loud-mouthed peak in this cartoon, as he does all the talking except for one line. Features one of the best concluding gags of any of the WB animated shorts: Foghorn refusing to shut up on the TOPIC of shutting up even after the screen goes black at the end the cartoon, to the point where he even wrestles with the 'closing circle' so he can get a few more words in on how he knows when to shut up! MM Foghorn Leghorn, Barnyard Cat


Leghorn Swoggled


07/28/51 Robert McKimson


Foghorn tells Henery he is too small to want Foggy, and Dawg offers to help for a bone which he can get from Cat for a fish, etc. Foggy inadvertently helps Henery get what he needs and he drags off the rooster in the end with Dawg's help (the bonehead technique). Foghorn Leghorn, Henery, Dawg


Lovelorn Leghorn


09/08/51 Robert McKimson


After reading the book "Living Alone and Hating It", Miss Prissy sets out to bag a husband, rolling pin in hand while the other hens laugh at her. In this "prank war" Foggy falls behind early, until he is able to get Prissy to believe that Dawg is a rooster in a dog suit. In the end Dawg and Prissy combine forces to get Prissy a husband. Foghorn Leghorn, Ms. Prissy


Sock-a-Doodle-Do


05/10/52 Robert McKimson


After falling off a truck, the pinfeatherweight boxing champ, Kid Banty finds himself at Foghorn's farm. Anytime the Kid hears a bell he comes out swinging, even punching a cow after the cowbell rings (a cowpuncher?). This leads to a series of gags in which Foggy and Dawg try arrange for a bell to ring when Banty is near the other. One rarity in this cartoon is that in addition to Camptown Races, Foggy hums the "This is the way we wash our clothes" tune. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Kid Banty, Barnyard Dawg


The Egg-Cited Rooster


10/04/52 Robert McKimson


Mrs. Leghorn orders Foggy to sit on her egg. With Foghorn stuck on the egg, Dawg takes advantage of him. Henery wanders by and Foghorn convinces him to watch the egg while he exacts revenge. Eventually Foghorn gets his lumps from the wife when he is caught neglecting his duty. MM Foghorn Leghorn, Henery Hawk, Barnyard Dawg, Mrs. Leghorn


Plop Goes the Weasel]


08/22/53 Robert McKimson


The plot revolves around Foghorn and Dawg each using the weasel to cause trouble for the other. Foggy tries to get Dawg in trouble by letting the weasel get near the chickens, while in return Dawg encourages the weasel to go after Foggy. Eventually Dawg clubs Foggy and leads the dizzy rooster into the weasel's clutches. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Barnyard Dawg, (unnamed) Weasel


Of Rice and Hen


11/14/53 Robert McKimson


Miss Prissy is distraught over her lack of a husband and sets out to commit suicide. Foghorn happens upon the scene and catches her, saving her life and making the hen fall in love with Foggy. Her attempts to attract Foghorn are resisted, so Dawg offers to help her catch the rooster. He dresses up as one himself, and acts interested in Prissy. Foghorn can't stand that Prissy seems to like someone else and Dawg's plan fools Foghorn into competing for her. In the end Prissy gets Foggy for her husband. A very well executed cartoon with good dialog and even an original song by Foggy about Dawg. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Prissy, Dawg


Little Boy Boo


06/05/54 Robert McKimson


Foghorn is seeking warming living quarters when he woos Miss Prissy saying he needs her love to keep him warm. She consents to let him in if he'll prove he can be a good father to her son Egghead Jr.. Foghorn's attempts to engage him in various games all wind up the same: Egghead always outdoes him using his genius. Even his paper airplane shoots down Foggy's! Eventually this outdoing gets Foggy 'badly injured' (in cartoon terms) and Foggy gives up, saying that his bandages will keep him warm instead. LT Foghorn Leghorn, Prissy, Egghead Jr.


Feather Dusted


01/15/55 Robert McKimson

02/19/55 Robert McKimson

Foghorn Leghorn, Dawg, Henery

Rhode Island Red (Foghorn's rival and college chum) with some hen friends

Foghorn's old college chum, Rhode Island Red, drops in by surprise (they went to Chicken Tech).

Weasel While You Work


09/06/58 Robert McKimson


A wintertime cartoon, providing a change of scenery for the usual Foghorn-Dawg battles, with an appearance by the weasel thrown in for good measure. Foghorn doesn't deny being a chicken this time, but he convinces the weasel that he would rather have other animals instead. Foggy then dresses Dawg in antlers (after telling the weasel he wants a deer) and in a girdle (after telling the weasel he wants a seal). In the end Dawg winds up sending Foggy up on a rocket. ??
