• A Greeting from Chuck Jones (Disc 3, SD, 4 minutes): Jones opens the set's third disc with a carefully prepared introduction, reflecting on the classic characters, unforgettable shorts, laughs and legacy of Looney Tunes.

Only "Museum Scream" is presented in high definition, though.
• How the Grinch Stole Christmas Pencil Test (Disc 3, SD, 7 minutes): Rare work-reel footage from Jones' Dr. Seuss' How the Grinch Stole Christmas. It seems out of place, but its inclusion is still appreciated.
• The Door (Disc 3, HD, 7 minutes): An animation/live-action hybrid short from 1968 that features two Native Americans and a healthy dose of none-too-subtle social commentary.
