Fair and Worm-er is a 1946 Merrie Melodies cartoon short released by Warner Bros. The cartoon was directed by Chuck Jones and featured what might be a brief cameo by Pepé Le Pew. The cartoon is considered one of Warner Bros.' greatest chase sequence shorts, done largely in silent slapstick. Only a few of the characters actually speak, though some have "title cards" appearing above their heads to represent their thought patterns. This cartoon is considered one of the possible inspirations for the Road Runner vs. Coyote series of shorts produced in the 1950s and beyond.
