De Cacería de Patos Locos

...I thought it would be too much of a remake of "Porky's Duck Hunt", which is what this episode is partly based on. P'sDH was Daffy's debut and I was afraid that this episode would just redo it as "Dough for the Do-do" did. Luckily - the plot turned dramatically and most of the episode was hardly like P'sDH at all! :-)

In this episode, we first see Porky and his dog out hunting ducks. Daffy, of course, comes along and ruins Porky's chances without him realizing it by taking out the gunpowder in his cartridges. Despite this, Porky's dog manages to catch Daffy and he is taken to Porky's house, where his two new enemies plan to eat him...

I thought some of the jokes here were pretty good - in addition to a good plot line. There were a few repeated jokes became very boring for me, but the end is one of the best I have yet seen in Looney Tunes. The animation was good as well. It may be a shock for certain people to see Porky with a darker heart, but I can tell you, he is like this in many previous episodes and it does make him a stronger character.

I recommend this to people who like Daffy, Porky being mean and faithful cartoon dogs. Enjoy "Daffy Duck Hunt"! :-)

Porky is in the blinds duck hunting. Daffy sneaks up from behind and empties his shotgun shells, saying, "Duck hunters is the cwaziest people."

The cocky Daffy then flies overhead and announces, "Here I am, fat boy. Here's your target!" Then, even more of an outrageous scene, Daffy reappears in back of Porky, dons a frilly skirt and sings a can-can. He then "moons" the pig with a bullseye drawn on his butt (knowing the shells are blanks). Porky shoots, Daffy dramatically pretends he is hit, but flies away laughing. Porky is ticked off, to say the least!!! He sends his dog out after him.

The dog is smarter than Porky and fools Daffy and a couple more minutes of fantastic material is presented. The first four minutes of this seven-minute short are about as good as it gets. The last three minutes are so-so. Overall, still very entertaining.

In the late '40s and early '50s while Chuck Jones was making Porky and Daffy cartoons that had the latter the "hero" while the former the "sidekick", Robert McKimson was bringing back the adversarial relationship they originally had when they first met in Tex Avery's Porky's Duck Hunt. This short is similar to that in that Porky is once again a hunter who's looking for ducks. Daffy, of course, becomes the target but because he emptied many bullet shells of pellets, the shooting Porky does won't hurt him. At this point, the dog makes a deal with the duck for him to surrender to him so his master won't throw him out. Many funny gags involving the duck and dog follow. And dig the holiday twist that ends this short. So on that note, I highly recommend Daffy Duck Hunt.

Funny Porky & Daffy short, directed by Robert McKimson. The plot has Porky and his dog out duck hunting, which leads to Daffy deciding to screw around with them. There seems to be some debate about whether or not Porky's dog here is actually supposed to be Barnyard Dog from the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons. They look very similar but this dog doesn't sound like Barnyard at all or have his personality. Whether it's Barnyard or not, the dog's a fun character. Love his "angel & devil" bit. Really the whole show belongs to Daffy here. He's at an 11 on a 10 scale the whole time, being as wacky and kooky as possible. The animation is fluid with well-drawn characters and backgrounds. Love the Technicolor. Carl Stalling's music is very nice. Mel Blanc's voice work is flawless (as usual). It's a good cartoon but, as other reviewers have noted, the first half is much better than the second. Fans of Daffy should love it.

I think this is the only short where The barnyard dog does not co star with Foghorn Leghorn. I like it when daffy calls the dog lassie. I find the plot where daffy is making noise in order to get porky's attention to the pluto cartoon 'Pantry Pirate'. I like the ending where the iris closes on daffys eye.
