Duck Dodgers

If you are a fan of Warner Brother cartoons, such as Bugs, Elmer, Daffy, Yosemite, Foghorn, and many others, then you will love this series. I couldn't disagree more with the moron who posted the review that slammed this series. My son and I religiously watched each episode as they premiered week to week on Cartoon Network. We couldn't wait to see the next one. We laughed so hard we fell off the couch. The one that mocked "Iron Giant" was one of our favorites (I go... you stay... no following). Not since "Samurai Jack" has a writing team given us so much to laugh about in one series. When it suddenly came to a halt, we stopped watching Cartoon Network. The more recent shows don't even come close to the level of this wonderful series. I feel sorry for the cynical reviewer who sounded so high and mighty about animation. This isn't animation. These are cartoons. They make you laugh. We love Bugs Bunny. We love Elmer Fudd. We especially love Daffy Duck. May you long live to make us laugh because.... you're despicable! (spoken with a lisp)

I am an enormous fan of animation and of the original Looney Tunes cartoons. In general cartoons of this last decade have been awful or shows that started off good but now mediocre. Duck Dodgers is a rarity, seriously while not the best animated show out there in the world it is light years away from being the worst. I'd rather watch Duck Dodgers than something like Pokemon or Shaggy and Scooby Doo:Get a Clue, the former had a great concept but the later episodes especially are really predictable and the less said about the latter the better.

Back to Duck Dodgers, the animation is lovely to look at, not slip shod or flat, but colourful, well drawn and fluid. The galactic backgrounds often look absolutely amazing especially. The music is also great, the theme tune is very catchy and memorable, and the writing is sharp, not as razor sharp as the original cartoons, but sharp and funny enough. Yes, it was funny, there are many episodes that have many hilarious visual gags and dialogue to delight not only kids but adults as well. The episode ideas don't feel contrived or slushy, a major plus in my book, they are just episodes that spring from a great concept and work above decently with well above average material. Also the voice acting do really well. I do miss Mel Blanc I admit, he immortalised the original cartoons and was just a phenomenal voice actor overall. That said, Joe Alaskey, Tia Carrere, Bob Bergen, Tara Strong and Grey DeLisle all do great jobs with their characters. Speaking of the characters, I always delight in Daffy Duck, he has a witty, outrageous and manic persona that makes him truly unique and he is on top form as an incompetent space captain. Porky as the cadet isn't given as much to do but he does well with what he has, and the Martian Queen is beautiful and somewhat sexy.

Overall, this is if given a chance, a great series. Not as good as the originals, which I admit I wasn't expecting, but it is for me one of the better animated shows of the last decade. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This show is a hilarious twist on the classic Marvin the Martian universe, featuring none other than Daffy Duck as the bumbling space hero, Duck Dodgers! The animation is super vibrant, blending a retro feel with a modern twist, which really captures the essence of the Looney Tunes charm. Daffy's over-the-top antics as he tries to prove himself as a top-notch space hero, while often failing spectacularly, makes for some seriously funny episodes. Plus, the dynamic with Porky Pig, who plays his loyal sidekick, is just gold. Their comedic timing really makes the show shine! The plots are kooky and imaginative, taking Daffy and his crew through wacky space adventures, battling enemies like Marvin the Martian and even encountering bizarre aliens along the way. It's like a mash-up of classic cartoon humor with sci-fi themes, making it enjoyable for both kids and adults. What I really appreciate is that each episode is filled with clever jokes and pop culture references, so there's always something to chuckle about. And let's not forget about the memorable theme song, it's one of those tunes that sticks in your head all day!

This is a cool series that takes old characters and uses them to spoof Alien, TNG/VOY, and countless other sci-fi shows. The animation is well done, and the voices are true to the characters.

I think that it is great for older kids and adults because of some of the inside jokes that may confuse. However, if you know a bit about popular culture, you will see lots of cool gags and references to modern TV and film. I especially like the design of ships, as the earth ships are very classically styled and the Martian ships are kind of like Akira class vessels from Star Trek.

The episode "The Fudd" is based on the concept of the Borg from Star Trek in every way. It was cool to see Trek being used in such a funny way.

I think this is a very funny cartoon! It is a spoof of an old TV show called Buck Rodgers and then came The spoof Duck Dodgers.

One time in late 1998 when I was out in Los Angeles, CA to see Hanna-Barbera and Warner Brothers cartoon studios, when I was in the Warner-Brothers studio, I saw a few posters of Duck Dodgers and I was thinking are they going to make a TV show of Duck Dodgers? Then I thought that would be funny if they did because of seeing a lot of space future adventures with Daffy Duck and Porky Pig, plus seeing Daffy Duck being blowin' up in action! Then 5 years later they made one. I watch it every Saturday Morning @ 10:30 am on Cartoon Network!
