Oh my sweet Lord.
George C. Scott is one of my heroes. Let me get this out of the way.
I love Bugs and Daffy, as well as Muppet Babies, Garfield, Duck Tales, and ALF.
I respect George Bush, even if he wasn't my favorite president.
I don't actively dislike the Smurfs.
Let me get all of this all out of the way.
Now let me point out that this special is truly one of the most unintentionally hilarious slices of "Reefer Madness"-style anti-drug propaganda pieces ever put to film (or in this case, video). Nice touches include how marijuana turns you into one of the dancers from "Thriller" or how the nightmare sequence inexplicably features Huey, Dewey, and Louie as the primary tormentors of America's drug-addled youth. Also keep an eye out for the pointless voyage through the brain in which a puff on a blunt is interpreted visually as an outtake from Altered States.
It must have been a recurring joke in the animation studio about how the horrors of marijuana, even as depicted, could never compare to the exquisite terror of waking up to see three 4' ducks in beanies, sans pants, cursing your lifestyle choices.
