I like how this short, like most Looney Tunes parodies, has completely outlasted what it was spoofing in terms of cultural significance. Like, everyone and their dog has seen this cartoon, but who gives a shit about Buck Rogers anymore?

The thing about Looney Tunes is they were aware that you could parody something, but write it well enough to stand on its own without knowing anything about what it’s parodying.
Modern cartoons that try to use memes will not enjoy this success, because they rely too hard on the memes being known.

the best kind of parodies are the ones you can still enjoy even if you don’t know the source
