PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew is a fictitious character of the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series, first introduced in 1945. Described as a striped skunk France, Pepa continues to seek love and appreciation. However, the smell of his offensive skunk and his aggressive romantic pursuits usually causes other characters to flee from him in fear.

Premise
PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew storyline usually involves PepÃÆ'Â © in the pursuit of a female black cat, the PepÃÆ'Â © fault for a skunk ("la belle femme skunk fatale"). The cat, which is retroactively named Penelope Pussycat, often has a white line painted on its back, usually due to an accident (such as by squeezing under the fence with a wet white paint). Penelope frantically races away from him because of the stench, his overly aggressive manner or both, while PepÃÆ'Â © jumps afterwards with a leisurely pace.
Settings
The setting is always mise-en-scÃÆ'¨ne echoed with cracking French. They include Paris in the spring, the Sahara, the Matterhorn, or the small village of N'est-ce Pas in the French Alps. Exotic locale, like Algeria, is taken from the story of PepÃÆ' Â © Le Moko . The related arrangements in popular culture with romance, such as the Champs-ÃÆ'â € ° lysÃÆ' Â © es or the Eiffel Tower, are sometimes present.
Narcissism
PepÃÆ'Â © depicts Penelope as a lucky person to be the object of her affection, and uses a romantic paradigm to explain her failure to seduce her. For example, he described the hammer blow in his head as a form of temptation rather than rejection. Thus, he shows no signs of a narcissistic injury or loss of trust no matter how many times he is rejected.
Inversion
In a reversal of roles, the shortest Academy Award winner in 1949 for Scent-imental Reasons ends with an unintentionally painted (and now frightened) Peps being chased by a severely beaten Penelope (who has been drowned in dirty water, leaving her with a dirty appearance and a growing cold head, completely clogging her nose). Apparently the new color of PepÃÆ'Â © right for her. Penelope locked her inside the perfume shop, hiding the key on her chest, and proceeded to chase Pepe now who was imprisoned and effectively odorless.
In another short, Little Beau Pepà © , PepÃÆ' ©, trying to find the most evocative cologne to impress Penelope, spraying a combination of perfume and cologne on herself. This results in something close to a love potion, which causes Penelope to fall in love with Pepa with a heart explosion. PepÃÆ' © was very afraid of an overly affectionate woman ("But madame!"), Which disappointed her, as Penelope quickly grabbed her and wiped her out with a greater love than she could imagine.
And again, in Truly Scent , PepÃÆ'  © removes its odor by locking itself in the deodorant plant so Penelope (otherwise known as "Fabrette", in this case a black cat with an unfortunate birthmark) wants he (this is also the only episode that PepÃÆ' © is very aware of its own smell, after checking the word "Pew" in the dictionary). However, Penelope (who in this picture is actually trying to have a relationship with PepÃÆ' © because all New Orleans cats bring her into skunks and run like fire, but is shocked by her smell) has decided to make her own. The smell suits her appearance and has locked herself in the Limburger cheese factory. Now stronger and demanding, Penelope quickly cornered the frightened Pepà ©, who, having smelled her new smell, wanted nothing but to escape from the romance cat. Unfortunately, he will not accept "no" for the answer and proceed to drive PepÃÆ' © into the distance, without intending to let him escape.
Although PepÃÆ'Â © usually Penelope's mistake for skunk, in Past Perfumance, she realized that she was a cat when the line was swept away. Undeterred, he begins to cover his white line with black paint, taking the cat's appearance before continuing the chase.
To emphasize Pepe's cheerful dominance in this situation, Penelope has always been silent (or rather, just making natural cat sounds, albeit with "le" stereotypes before each) in these stories; only the self-deceiving Pepa (some non-repetitive human characters are given minimal dialogue, often no more than the "Leew pew!") being repulsed.
Variations
Sometimes this formula varies. In the original cartoons, Odor-able Kitty , PepÃÆ'Â © (which was revealed to be an American skunk named Henry in this short time) unknowingly pursued a cat males who inadvertently disguised. himself as a skunk (complete with the aroma of Limburger cheese) to frighten a group of characters who have persecuted him. Scent-imental Over You has PepÃÆ'Â © chasing a dog dog who has been wearing a miserly skunk (mistaking it as a fur coat). In the end, he releases his pelt, revealing that he is a dog. PepÃÆ'Â © then "revealed" herself as another dog and both hugs. However, he later revealed to the audience that he was still a skunk. In Wild Over You, PepÃÆ' Â © tried to seduce a wild cat that had escaped from the zoo (during the so-called "Le grande tour du Zoo" at the 1900 exhibition), and painted itself to look like skunk to escape from the guard. This cartoon is notorious for not only deviating from the dynamic PepÃÆ'Â ©/cats-black cat, but also shows that PepÃÆ'Â Â © likes to be beaten, considering the wildcat beat him many times. Truly Scent is also a subversion with Penelope (here called "Fabrette") attracted to him from the start, eliminating Pepa's need to chase him when he goes to him. But PepÃÆ''s scent still causes trouble for him as they try to build relationships.

Production
Chuck Jones, the creator of PepÃÆ'Â ©, writes that PepÃÆ'Â © is based (loosely) on the personality of his Termite Terrace counterpart, the author of Tedd Pierce, a fake "female" who reportedly always assumed that his preoccupation was reciprocated. The sound of PepÃÆ'Â ©, provided by Mel Blanc, is based on Charles Boyer's PÃÆ'Â © pÃÆ'Â © le Moko of Algiers (1938), a remake of the 1937 French film PÃÆ'Â © pÃÆ'Â © le Moko Eddie Selzer, animation producer - and fiercest enemy Jones - in Warners then loudly commented that no one would laugh at the cartoon. However, this did not make Selzer receive an award for one of Pepa's photos a few years later. There is a theory that PepÃÆ'Â © is based on Maurice Chevalier. However, in the short film, "Chuck Jones: Memories of Childhood", Jones says PepÃÆ'Â © is actually based on herself, but that she is very embarrassed by girls, and PepÃÆ'Â © certainly does. A prototype of PepÃÆ' Â © appeared in 1947 Bugs Bunny Rides Again, but sounded similar to Porky Pig.
In shorts, a kind of pseudo-French or Franglais is pronounced and written primarily by adding "le" to English words (eg "le skunk de pew"), or by changing the more creative French expressions in English such as < i> "SacrÃÆ' Â © Maroon!" , "Sweet Beans" , "Come to me, my little melon-baby collie!" or "Ah, my little darling, it is love at first sight, no, no?" , and "This is the first seen love!" The author responsible for this malapropism is Michael Maltese.
Multiple dialogs from the shortest 1949 Oscar winners For Scent-imental Reasons :
- PepÃÆ'Â ©: (singing) Affaire d'amourÃ,? Affaire de coeurÃ,? Je ne sais quoi... je vive en espoir. (Sniff) Mmmm mm mm... un smella vous finez... (Hums)
- Gendarme: Le k committee que odeur terrible !!
- Owner: Allez GendarmeÃ, !! AllezÃ, !! Retournez-moiÃ, !! This instonce !! Oh, pauvre moi, I'm broke... (sobbing)
- Cat/Penelope: Le mew? Le purrrrrrr.
- Owner: A-a-ahhh. Le fierce pussy! Remove skunk zot! Zot cat-pole from place ze !! AvecÃ, !!
- Cat/Penelope: (Smels skunk) Sniffing, sniffing, sniffing, sniffing.
- PepÃÆ'Â ©: Quel estÃ,? * notice cat * Ahh... le belle femme skunk fatale... * double click the tongue *
Blanc's voice for the characters is very similar to the one he used for "Professor Le Blanc", the violin instructor who was scorned at The Jack Benny Program.
Cartoons PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew dubbed in French; in the French version ( PÃÆ' Â © pÃÆ' Â © le putois ), PepÃÆ'Â © spoke with a heavy Italian accent. Her voice is a parody of Yves Montand.
The cameo appearance
Chuck Jones first introduced the character (originally named Stinky ) in a brief 1945 Odor-able Kitty (see "Variation"), where he was revealed to be an American married skunk named Henry who had faked his French accent. For the remaining cartoons Jones directed, PepÃÆ'Â © maintaining accents, nationalities, and bachelor status were recognized throughout, and the object of his pursuit was almost always female.
A second cameo appearance that may be on the end of the Fair and Worm-er (Chuck Jones, 1946). Skunk is not talking, but it looks identical (or is a close relationship) and shares the same travel modes and little variations of music hopping PepÃÆ'Â ©. Its function here is to pursue string characters that have all been chasing each other (ÃÆ' la "There Was Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly").
A skunk often identified as PepÃÆ' Â © appears in a cartoon directed by Art Davis Odor of the Day (1948); in this entry, the theme of romantic pursuit is lost as a skunk (in a non-speaking role, except "Gesundheit!" together at the end) competes with a male dog for an accommodation inn on a winter day. This is one of two cartoons in which the character, if this is indeed PepÃÆ'Â ©, uses its aroma as a deliberate weapon: firing from its tail as if it were a machine gun. The other is TouchÃÆ'Â © and Go , where he frees himself from the jaws of sharks by releasing the odor to the shark's mouth.
PepÃÆ'  © made a clearer cameo in Dog Pounded (1954), where he was attracted to Sylvester after the latter tried to get around with the pack of guard dogs, in his final attempt to capture and eat Tweety, painting the line white on his back (in appearance of Pepà © only in short freleng).
PepÃÆ'Â © may make a small appearance as a baby skunk in Mouse-Placed Kitten (1959), where she was reluctantly adopted by the mice at the end of the cartoon.
Appearance later
PepÃÆ'Â © will have a cameo on Who Framed Roger Rabbit , but then crossed out for unknown reasons. [1]
PepÃÆ'Â © made several cameo appearances in the 1990 series Tiny Toon Adventures as a professor at Acme Looniversity and a mentor for female skunk character Fifi La Fume. She appeared briefly on "The Looney Beginning" and had a longer cameo in "This is a Special Christmas Special Tiny Toon". The "Out of Odor" segment of the "Viewer Mail Day" episode sees Elmyra's character disguising himself as PepÃÆ'Â © in an effort to lure Fifi into a trap, just so Fifi begins to aggressively seduce him.
PepÃÆ'Â © also made a cameo appearance on the episode Hysteria! "When America Was Young" and in the Goodfathers segment, "We're No Pigeons", at Animaniacs .
In 1995 short animated Carrotblanca, a parody of the classic movie Casablanca, both Pepà ©  © and Penelope appeared: PepÃÆ' © (voiced by Greg Burson) as Captain of Renault and Penelope (voiced by Tress MacNeille) as "Kitty Ketty" (mimicking Ingrid Bergman's appearance as Ilsa). Unlike the appearance of other characters in the cartoon, Penelope (as Kitty) has an extensive speaking section on Carrotblanca.
In The Sylvester & amp; Tweety Mysteries, in the episode, "Platinum Wheel of Fortune", when Sylvester gets a white line on his back, a skunk immediately falls in love with him. This is not PepÃÆ'Â ©, but the same character is identified as "Pitu Le Pew" (voiced by Jeff Bennett). However, he said, "What can I say, PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew is my third cousin, it runs in the family". PepÃÆ'Â © then will appear in the episode "Is Paris Stinking" (once again voiced by Greg Burson), where he chases Sylvester who accidentally dressed drag. PepÃÆ' Â © will appear once again in Tweety's High-Flying Adventure, falling in love with Sylvester and Penelope (Sylvester getting a white line on his back from Penelope as they battle against Tweety), actually showing a preference for Sylvester.
PepÃÆ'Â © is, at one point, inseparable from the storyline for the movie Looney Tunes: Back in Action (voiced by Bruce Lanoil). Initially, as soon as Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, DJ, and Kate arrived in Paris, PepÃÆ' © © gave them a mission briefing inside the gift shop. Probably because the group that received their equipment in Area 52, the scene of PepÃÆ'Â © was cut off, and in the last movie, he played only a small part, dressed like a police officer, who tried to help DJ (played by Brendan Fraser) after Kate (played by Jenna Elfman) was kidnapped. However, some unused animations from him and Penelope appear during the final credits, giving the viewer a rare glimpse at the cut scene, and the cut scene appears in a print adaptation of the movie. PepÃÆ' Â © also appeared in Space Jam Hour (voiced by Maurice LaMarche), where her voice has strangely changed to Maurice Chevalier's estimates, as opposed to the more traditional vocalizations.
In Loonatics Unleashed, a man based on PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew called Pierre Le Pew (voiced by Maurice LaMarche) has emerged as one of the villains of the second season of the show. In addition, PepÃÆ'Â © and Penelope Pussycat emerged as a cameo in Otto the Odd's appearance in the episode "The Hunter." In the episode "The World is My Circus," Lexi Rabbit complains that "the look of PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew is definitely not me" after mutating into a skunk-like creature.
An AT & amp; themed ad T Valentine's Day 2009 brings PepÃÆ'Â © (voiced by Jeff Bennett) and Penelope's relationship to date, which depicts Penelope not as being struck by PepÃÆ'Â ©, but falls in love with him. The advertisement begins with Penelope deliberately painting a white line on his own back; when his cell phone rang and displayed a picture of PepÃÆ'Â ©, Penelope's shell beat the heart bulge beneath his chest in a classic cartoon picture.
Baby version of PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew appeared on Baby Looney Tunes. In the episode "New Cat in the City," everyone thought he was a cat. Sylvester is the only one who knows the truth. When Daffy played with the laptop, Sylvester took off the battery because he was afraid everyone would avoid it. We also saw her adult version on the laptop. In another episode, titled "Stop and Smell Up the Flowers", PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew proved to be good friends with a baby Gossamer, and looked a bit older than his previous appearance.
PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew has appeared on the episode of The Looney Tunes Show "Members Only" voiced by RenÃÆ'Â © Auberjonois in Season One and by Jeff Bergman in Season Two. She is present in an arranged arrangement by Bugs Bunny and Lola Bunny. Of course Lola finally fell in love with PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew. He also made a short cameo appearance with Penelope Pussycat in the Merrie Melodies segment "Cock of the Walk" sung by Foghorn Leghorn. She appeared in her own music video "Skunk Funk" in the 16th episode of "That's My Baby". He also appeared again in another Merrie Melody segment "You Like/I Like" sung by Mac and Tosh. His first appearance in the second season was in the second episode, titled, "You've Got Hate Mail", reading hateful emails accidentally sent by Daffy Duck. She also has a short appearance at Christmas special "A Christmas Carol" where she takes part in the song "Christmas Rules." In "Gribbler's Quest," PepÃÆ'Â © Le Pew proved to be in the same therapeutic group as Daffy Duck, Marvin the Martian, and Yosemite Sam.
PepÃÆ' Â © Le Pew made a cameo in the MetLife ad in 2012 titled, "Everyone". In it, he is shown jumping in the woods and when he sees his love interest Penelope Pussycat climbs behind the Battle Cat, he immediately jumps after him.
PepÃÆ'Â © Le Pew has appeared on Looney Tunes: Rabbits Run voiced by Jeff Bergman. In this movie, she is the chief perfume head Lola wants to make as a distinctive aroma.
