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)
My favorite part of the show is the theme song at the begining sung by tom jones it just makes the show for me. After that who cares. it does have it moments for me after all i always thought daffy duck was histercal and porky pig as his sidekick is great.
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!
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.

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.
