Pigs in a Polka - 1942 (Merrie Melodies - HD) | Academy Award Nomination. Pigs in a Polka is a 1943 Warner Bros. Merrie Melodies cartoon series directed by Friz Freleng. The short was released on February 6, 1943.

The film is a parody of two Walt Disney Productions films: 1933's Three Little Pigs and 1940's Fantasia. The familiar story of The Three Little Pigs is set in this film to several of Brahms' "Hungarian Dances", specifically No. 5, No. 7, No. 6 and No. 17 which appear in that order. It is also part of a light-hearted, culturally subversive Merrie Melodies running joke, which would later be re-emphasized with another Fantasia parody, 1943's A Corny Concerto. There is very little dialogue in the cartoon aside from the Big Bad Wolf's introduction of the story and the Three Little Pigs introducing themselves.

It was nominated for the 1942 Academy Award for Best Short Subject: Cartoons.
