What's up, doc? ( English for something like "What's going on?" ) is a popular word in US colloquial language.

The phrase goes back to the cartoon series Bugs Bunny , whose main character of the same name, the cute bunny Bugs Bunny, routinely uses the phrase in most of the cartoons in the series. In particular, Bugs Bunny usually greets his respective opponent (such as Elmer Fudd or Yosemite Sam ) with the words "What's up, Doc?" In each cartoon in the series when both meet for the first time in the respective story. This is usually followed by a detailed argument between him and his opponent. The phrase was first used at the suggestion of director Tex Avery in the cartoon Die Hasenfalle (original title: A Wild Hare ) from 1940 and has since been incorporated into practically every Bugs Bunny cartoon.

Over the decades, the words “What's up, Doc?” Have entered colloquial American language as a standing phrase, used as greetings or as a rhetorical question. The production company of the Bugs Bunny cartoons, Warner Brothers released under the title of some productions, such as in 1950 the animated film "What's Up Doc?" From the Looney Tunes series, the 1972 feature film "What's Up, Doc?" (Dt . what's Up, Doc? and, unlike the animated film with a comma in the title) with Barbra Streisand and Ryan O'Neal in the lead roles, as well as a television series for children program called "what's Up Doc?" , which from 1992 to 1995 aired on British television.
