Duck Dogers isn't the stink people make it out to be. Though it may steal jokes and ideas from other shows it also improves them! It usually has very interesting stories with good voice acting, which actually sound like the original characters! And occasionally has me rolling on my sides laughing at it's stupid jokes. Like the episode "The six wazillion dollar duck" with some nutty doctor who can't go without saying something totally hilarious every line he has! So give it a shot it's not a bad show one of the best new Donald duck shows! Give it a watch, you might find it brings back memories of the old WB cartoons, with a new style comic twist!
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!

Okay, a few people have trashed this series, and a few others like it. I would head more towards the like side, I don't think it's the best show ever, but it's nice. Daffy, as usual, is the typical clueless, egotistical loveable moron who needs his sidekick(Porky)'s help in most cases. These try to add a science fiction-esque twist to the Looney Tunes characters. While I agree that the series is not as good as the original 50's short, I don't think the series is trying to take its place, and I think the creators know this. To try and take the place of Chuck Jones's original masterpiece would probably be impossible, and I believe that when this show was created the writers knew this, which is why it is quite different from the the original, and even its lackluster sequel. Still, it's way better than Powerpuff Girls(gag me).
BOTTOM LINE: Although I won't be frantically searching this show out, it is a nice way to kill half an hour if I happen upon it.

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.

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!
