Daffy Duck | comment |
Daffy Duck is a Looney Tunes character created by Tex Avery (although Bob Clampett contributed to Daffy's personality) in 1937. He was the first of the new breed of "screwball" characters that emerged in the late 1930s to supplant traditional everyman characters, such as Mickey Mouse and Porky Pig. Was originally The Screwball /Cloudcuckoolander, later developed by Chuck Jones (and Friz Freleng, even more so) into a Jerkass Small Name, Big Ego, most famously paired with Bugs Bunny as the Odd Couple, but is also frequently set up against Porky Pig, who works as The Comically Serious and Deadpan Snarker to Daffy's hijinks. In this incarnation, used either as a foil for Bugs or to parody action-adventure heroes. Meanwhile Robert McKimson combined the two interpretations and made Daffy into a Loveable Rogue. Later also joined Sylvester on the hunt for Speedy Gonzales. Debut: Porky's Duck Hunt (1937), Tex Avery.Daffy has had the third largest amount of appearances in Looney Tunes history, next to Porky Pig and Bugs Bunny, starring in 129 theatrical cartoons. He, along with Speedy Gonzales, has the distinction of starring in the final classic theatrical Looney Tunes short, which was See Ya Later Gladiator.Many of the cartoons in which Daffy has starred have been parodies of movies and radio serials, such as Duck Dodgers, Duck Twacy (in The Great Piggy Bank Robbery), and Robin Hood Daffy. | |

Dirty Coward | |
Daffy Duck / int_1235f055 | comment |
Dirty Coward: Daffy is a self-confessed "craven little coward". Though he will occasionally defy his fears, if promises of fame and fortune are brought into the situation. When he gets the Abominable Snowman to focus on Bugs instead of him, giving him time to sneak away... In Ali Baba Bunny, he abuses Bugs at the drop of a hat for supposedly trying to steal "his" treasure, and then just as quickly runs to his "pal" for protection as soon as the Sultan's guard comes after him. | |

Daffy Duck / int_191a3673 | comment |
Graceful Loser: For as much smugness, dog-kicking and villainy that he's capable of, a few times Daffy does take his defeats well. In "The Chocolate Chase", for instance, all his attempts to thwart Speedy fail and the village he conned laughs at him. He also shows no signs of a Villainous Breakdown, is clearly happy, and decides to join in on the festivities. Speedy speculates he only became nicer due to being dipped in chocolate, though. | |

Villain Ball | |
Daffy Duck / int_1cc2ea8d | comment |
Villain Ball: During the Duck Season-Rabbit Season trilogy. From the very beginning of each short, Daffy has already succeeded in escaping Elmer, with him believing it is Rabbit Season and Bugs being more than willing to start his usual back and forth with the hunter. Nevertheless, he still breaks from his hiding spot, attempting to coach Elmer for not getting the job done. It's not enough for Daffy to have escaped getting his head blown off; Bugs has to get blasted by Elmer in his place, and Daffy has to see it happen with his own eyes. Needless to say, it always blows up in Daffy's face... literally. He clutched onto this near perpetually in his bouts with Speedy. No matter how much of his abuse could be avoided otherwise, Daffy could never resist going out of his way to spite the little rodent. He loses both his water well in Well Worn Daffy and his stash of canned goods in Moby Duck as a direct result of this. In People Are Bunny, Daffy forces Bugs to come with him to a television studio after hearing that a hunting show is offering $5,000 to whoever brings in the first rabbit. However, when he sees the various prizes offered on the studios game shows, Daffy locks Bugs into a telephone booth so he can go on the game shows and win the prizes. Considering the fact that the show will give cash money to whoever brings in the first rabbit, locking Bugs in there not only allows time that he could escape but also the possibility that somebody could bring in a rabbit before Daffy does. Bugs ends up tricking Daffy into wearing a rabbit disguise so that Daffy would be the first rabbit and Bugs, in disguise, gets the money instead, so technically nobody beat them to the punch, though when Daffy reveals that he's not a rabbit, the hunting season immediately switches from rabbit to duck. | |

Daffy Duck / int_21321e38 | comment |
Gleeful and Grumpy Pairing: He has fallen onto both sides of this trope; In the earlier shorts, where he's paired with Porky Pig, he's the gleeful screwball who always laughs, while Porky is the Nervous Wreck who has to put up with him. In the later shorts, where he's paired with Bugs Bunny, he's a bitterly sarcastic and frustrated loser who hates Bugs, a carefree and easygoing trickster. | |

Toothy Bird: Sometimes, although Chuck Jones joked in a few of his "dental" art prints about Daffy being toothless: Oddly invoked in "The Prize Pest" (1951) where he bullies Porky by claiming he turns into a monster when upset — he messes up his headfeathers and wears false fangy teeth. | |

Daffy Duck / int_28d27987 | comment |
Under Chuck Jones's direction in the early fifties, making him neurotic, more self-centered, and incredibly narcissistic (this is keeping in mind Daffy was never truly kind or thoughtful to begin with). Other directors eventually took his redesign and made him even worse. By the De Patie-Freleng era, he's often depicted as a puppy-punting villain with his Lack of Empathy and aforementioned selfishness greatly dialed up. Later productions go in and out with this, though for the most part refer to Jones's selfish egotist Daffy. | |

Even Evil Has Standards: "Nasty Quacks" (1945) has Daffy planning to kill a baby duck that had replaced him as his owner's pet but can't bring himself to do that to an infant. He gets around that moral hang up by feeding the baby duck growth pills. Of course, he drops the idea once it turns out the duckling is female— and pretty hot as an adult! | |

Karmic Butt-Monkey | |
Daffy Duck / int_35f4f6 | comment |
Karmic Butt-Monkey: How much Daffy suffers is often tied directly to how mean he's been acting during the cartoon. Best shown in his feuds with Bugs, where he could come out on top by simply walking away but suffers to the point of mental breakdowns because he goes out of his way to set the rabbit up for pain and misery for no other reason than his own amusement. He even got it as far back as his early days. Unlike Bugs, who was usually genuinely acting in defense against aggressors (after early shorts where he was an equally unprovoked jerkass heckler), Daffy was a screwball who would antagonize anyone that had the bad luck of stumbling into him and would either wind up losing or still stuck in the exact same mess by the end. Daffy would win if he was acting more altruistically, though, like in genuine self-defense or while helping others. | |

William Telling: Daffy Duck and Egghead (1938) has Daffy placing an apple on his head so Egghead can shoot it. But he misses each time, no matter how close Daffy gets to him. Daffy chucks the apple, gives Eggead a tin cup of pencils, a pair of sunglasses and a "Blind" sign around his neck. | |

Took a Level in Kindness | |
Daffy Duck / int_3dcc914f | comment |
Took a Level in Kindness: The De Patie-Freleng era takes Daffy's malicious habits so far outright that the only way to go was up. Compared to his persistent hatred for Speedy in the earlier cartoons, he becomes more of a Friendly Enemy by the time the studio switches to Seven Arts, needing motivation such as money or Speedy clutching the Idiot Ball to set him onto the latter. In their final pairing by the original creative team Daffy Duck's Fantastic Island, they are Vitriolic Best Buds. In Bah, Humduck! A Looney Tunes Christmas in accordance with nearly all variations of the story. Also in Bugs Bunny in King Arthur's Court, despite taking the role of a greedy king, Daffy is noticeably tamer and bored with his role, passively helping Bugs and even willingly giving him his crown by the end of the film. | |

Strictly Formula | |
Daffy Duck / int_3f1aadeb | comment |
Strictly Formula: Defied at first. Being an ever unpredictable Cloud Cuckoo Lander, for most of The '40s Daffy was the one Looney Tunes star who would be billed in almost any role without feeling out-of-character. While he often adhered to heckler or Karmic Trickster cartoons like Bugs Bunny, he was never exclusive to them. After Jones began to redefine Daffy into an antagonistic fall-guy however, his shorts from [1] tended to follow a more uniform structure. There were still several shorts that broke the trend or called back to his earlier self (especially ones directly by Robert Mckimson). | |

Worthy Opponent: Subverted against Bugs, where he was even more Harmless than Elmer. Oddly enough played more straight against Speedy, though still bumbling, existing as the sole villain to actually defeat, or even so much as invoke fear into the rodent. Even plays the trope's traditional chemistry, with Daffy, in almost a rare case of continuity, gaining a softer spot for Speedy in later shorts. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Jerk: After he takes a level in jerkass, he has a couple moments in which he seems like he's going to Pet the Dog. However, he soon reveals that isn't the case. He seems sad to see Rover left out in the cold and miserable in "Cracked Quack". However, when he seems like he's preparing to open the window to let him back inside, he pulls down the roller shades and walks away happily. Granted, it is Played for Laughs and Rover is a threat to his ruse. In "Snow Excuse", at least to Speedy (who's freezing to death), Daffy seems like he's leaving out some wood for him. However, not only is it revealed to be part of a trick, it's also revealed that the wood is actually chocolate-covered ice. | |

Bah, Humduck! shows that the reason for his greed, selfishness, and cruelty is due to growing up as an orphan, never being adopted and having no friends or family while he grew up. Thus, he decided that being nice was for chumps, and that if generosity and kindness couldn’t help him, than selfishness and greed would. Lampshaded by Tweety. | |

I Have a Family: Used twice as a ploy to get away from Porky. In "Duck Soup to Nuts" he calls out his sobbing "family" to say goodbye to him before Porky shoots him; Porky feels guilty and lets him off the hook, at which point the wife and kids remove their disguises and reveal themselves to be a few of Daffy's duck friends who were paid to get him out of trouble (a furious Porky overhears and opens fire on all of them). In "Riff Raffy Daffy", he uses a pair of wind-up toys as his "children". (In the cartoons where he actually did have a family, he only used the trope in "The Stupid Cupid, in order to stop the rooster from beating him up".) | |

At Least I Admit It: Daffy confesses on more than one occasion to be a coward and/or greedy. He particularly confesses to both in "Ducking the Devil". He confesses cowardice when he first sees the Tasmanian Devil and runs for his life ("I am a coward, a craven, little, scared-to-death coward!"). And when he hears of a $5,000 reward for the capture of the Tasmanian Devil, he happily accepts the challenge of bringing the beast in and getting paid for it because "I may be a craven, little coward, but I'm a greeeedy, craven, little coward." His very first line in "Porky's Duck Hunt" has him owning up to being "a crazy darn-fool duck". | |

Metaphoric Metamorphosis: In "The Million Hare" from 1963, Bugs and Daffy are watching a TV game show called "Beat Your Buddy" in which the host challenges two random friends to race to the TV studio, with the first one winning "a million bucks". Hilarity Ensues as Bugs and Daffy proceed to do so, with Daffy just pipping Bugs, the two of them having acquired Amusing Injuries along the way. The host then reveals that the prize is "a million box": a giant box containing a million smaller boxes. Deciding it's worthless, Daffy says he will give the prize to Bugs. The host comments that this is kind of him, since each of the smaller boxes contains a dollar bill. Daffy and Bugs' expressions don't change, but Daffy's head turns into that of a donkey and he brays mournfully. | |

Daffy Duck / int_5b3c4b05 | comment |
X Must Not Win: The "Hunting Trilogy" generally conveys him as this towards Bugs. While touting himself as a self preservationist, Daffy takes increasingly stubborn lengths to make sure Bugs gets shot by Elmer instead of him, to the point of even berating and directing Elmer, the very guy he's trying to avoid, to shoot Bugs (which always end up backfiring onto him). In both Rabbit Seasoning and Duck Rabbit Duck Daffy's downfall stems from coming out of his hiding place at the start of the cartoon when Bugs is already outsmarting Elmer, not satisfied with coming out safe but Bugs not getting shot. | |

Big Eater | |
Daffy Duck / int_5fcedca | comment |
Big Eater: Not so much in the cartoons, aside from "BBQ Bandit" which shows us he can eat loads of barbecue. However, in the licensed Dell comics, this became a big part of his character. In the comics, Daffy was always hungry and many of his schemes revolved around tricking people into giving him free food. Elmer was his favorite target, to the point where Elmer could barely go grocery shopping or picnicking without Daffy showing up and trying to mooch off him. | |

Daffy Duck / int_6076af84 | comment |
How much Daffy suffers is often tied directly to how mean he's been acting during the cartoon. Best shown in his feuds with Bugs, where he could come out on top by simply walking away but suffers to the point of mental breakdowns because he goes out of his way to set the rabbit up for pain and misery for no other reason than his own amusement. | |

Beastly Bloodsports: In "Mexican Joyride", Daffy goes to a bullfight ring to observe the spectacle. When Daffy jeers at the bull, the horned beast removes the clothes from the human matador and puts them on Daffy as a challenge to the duck to fight the bull in the ring. | |

Egg-Laying Male | |
Daffy Duck / int_60e55b0b | comment |
Egg-Laying Male: In "Golden Yeggs", a gold egg is laid at Porky's farm, and he asks who did it. The one who did it is a goose with a male voice, but since she doesn't want to end up dead like in the story of the Goose that Laid the Golden Egg, she pins it on Daffy Duck instead. Mobster Rocky kidnaps Daffy and orders him to lay a gold egg, but after trying to escape, he is shot at and the shock somehow makes him actually lay a gold egg. Never in the cartoon is it questioned whether male birds should be expected to lay eggs, let alone gold ones, but nonetheless, Daffy tries to leave after (seemingly) making good on Rocky's demand ... only to have a gun shoved in his face and be escored to a warehouse full of egg cartons – possibly tens or hundreds of thousands, if not multiple millions – and ordered to "Fill 'em up!" ... to which Daffy faints dead away. | |

Daffy Duck / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: In his early years, he definitely was Daffy and a playful trickster. This aspect of him was either toned down or dropped altogether in later cartoons, making his name a Non-Indicative Name instead. In The Looney Tunes Show, after becoming a victim of Daffy's antics, Bugs responds with something to the effect of "no wonder your name is Daffy". When asked what that means, Bugs tells him to look it up. Which he does. | |

Politically Incorrect Villain | |
Daffy Duck / int_729c69f3 | comment |
Politically Incorrect Villain: At least in the 1960s. Not only is he evil enough to try to destroy a well in an otherwise barren desert, he also shows shades of being racist. During a disagreement with Speedy (who is Mexican) in "Go Go Amigo", he makes fun of his accent. Moreover, in "Moby Duck", he insults him via saying he "can't even speak good English". In "Tease for Two", he even mocks Mac and Tosh's British accents. Unfortunately, these shorts were produced in an era notorious for racism. It's mentioned and soon outright shown in "Assault and Peppered" that Daffy does not like poor people. After finding some impoverished mice on his plantation, he is openly angry at them for "starving on [his] property" and commands them to stop. Also, his wording heavily implies this isn't the first time this has happened. He even whips several of them and only stopped because Speedy interrupted him. He told the mice that they "force[d]" him to "declare war on poverty". | |

Daffy Duck / int_79190971 | comment |
He even got it as far back as his early days. Unlike Bugs, who was usually genuinely acting in defense against aggressors (after early shorts where he was an equally unprovoked jerkass heckler), Daffy was a screwball who would antagonize anyone that had the bad luck of stumbling into him and would either wind up losing or still stuck in the exact same mess by the end. Daffy would win if he was acting more altruistically, though, like in genuine self-defense or while helping others. | |

Daffy Duck / int_7c862b8a | comment |
Chronic Backstabbing Disorder: There's a fairly long list of characters that Daffy has betrayed. He turns traitor on Bugs in several shorts and attempts to backstab Speedy in "See Ya Later Gladiator". He throws Sylvester under the bus in "The Yolk's on You" and does the same to Porky in "The Float". Not only does be betray Granny in "Toon Marooned", he starts an alliance with several other characters then reveals to the audience he'll eventually backstab them. Moreover, he even later eliminates several of them. In "Mallard Practice", he agrees to be Elmer's lawyer and win his case for him. He then frames him and accuses him of several crimes so he'd be sentenced to death. In one episode, Yosemite Sam even calls him "double-crossing". | |

Card-Carrying Jerkass: Much like his counterpart Bugs Bunny, Daffy started off as a rather extreme hyperactive Cloud Cuckoolander with a cruel streak. While his obnoxiousness and cruelty were likewise toned down over time, unlike Bugs, he never completely lost his tendency towards being selfish and mean; in fact, today he's most famous for being Bugs's openly conniving (if generally ineffective) Foil. In one of the licensed Dell comics, he even shamelessly calls himself a "scoundrel" while tricking Elmer. | |

It's the Principle of the Thing: Daffy inverts this phrase in "My Little Duckaroo" and "The Million-Hare", when he learns of a huge amount of money to be paid and, being the greedy character that he is, decides to claim it. | |

Villain Protagonist | |
Daffy Duck / int_898ff050 | comment |
Villain Protagonist While Daffy was on the receiving end of trouble in Porky's Duck Hunt and Daffy Duck and Egghead, Tex Avery's third and last Daffy Duck, Daffy Duck in Hollywood, puts him into a heckler role where he knowingly sabotages a Hollywood movie production just for the heck of it, much to the chagrin of the films director. In The Daffy Doc, he kidnaps Porky Pig just so he can have a patient and even tries to saw him open! Of course, he's completely bonkers in the cartoon, so he really doesn't know any better. After having Took a Level in Jerkass, he arguably leaned even further into this trope. In some of his bouts against Speedy and Bugs, he is an outright genuine villain (in comparison to the more playful Screwball Squirrel he usually was in the above examples), but still usually the primary focus. | |

Forgot Flanders Could Do That: Even after Chuck Jones recreated Daffy as a pompous loser, there were a fair few references to his crazy trickster persona. This is particularly evident in Robert McKimson's work, who even after giving Daffy his later more lucid personality, had him snap back to his heckler persona on several occasions. Even some modern works such as Space Jam or Daffy Duck's Rhapsody blatantly hark back to the original Daffy. | |

Daffy Duck / int_90b330ab | comment |
No-Respect Guy: Depending on the short. Sometimes he's an incompetent Jerkass who deserves to be a Butt-Monkey, but at least once he becomes this trope when he's picked on just because he's not Bugs Bunny. In Show Biz Bugs specifically, he's shown to be as talented as Bugs but the audience ignores him, while Bugs is the only one who gets all the cheering and applause. Which is changed for the inclusion of the short in The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie which has Daffy go out of his way to heckle and offend nearly every member of the audience, making the whole concept of respect seem out of place. | |

He also refers to himself as "a henpecked duck!" in "The Stupid Cupid", probably in reference to the aforementioned cartoon. Pretty much any time he's shown married, he's this. In "The Super Snooper", he actively refuses to get involved with the gorgeous Femme Fatale, even after she proves her innocence, for fear of letting it happen again: "She's got that ol' ball-and-chain look in her eyes!" | |

During the Duck Season-Rabbit Season trilogy. From the very beginning of each short, Daffy has already succeeded in escaping Elmer, with him believing it is Rabbit Season and Bugs being more than willing to start his usual back and forth with the hunter. Nevertheless, he still breaks from his hiding spot, attempting to coach Elmer for not getting the job done. It's not enough for Daffy to have escaped getting his head blown off; Bugs has to get blasted by Elmer in his place, and Daffy has to see it happen with his own eyes. Needless to say, it always blows up in Daffy's face... literally. | |

Daffy Duck / int_9858c391 | comment |
Chick Magnet: Not an aspect that is always stressed but Daffy has had plenty of women fall for him. The gorgeous red headed duck Femme Fatale from "The Super Snooper" fell for him at first sight, lavished him with kisses and wanted to marry him right away. Another female in "The Duxorcist" allowed him to kiss her only moments after they met. Even the blonde bombshell German Femme Fatale Spy pigeon Hatta Mari in Plane Daffy, who attempted to seduce him got turned on the second time they kissed. The Martian Queen Ty'ranee in Duck Dodgers loved him as well. The Looney Tunes Show pairs him with Tina. Not only that but there have been many times Daffy has been shown to be married to different female ducks with lots of kids. He is easily the most sexually active character out of the entire Looney Tunes crew. Possibly lampshaded in an old Gold Key comic story ("The Charming Chump") after he gets a talkative Abhorrent Admirer in the form of Debbie Duck: | |

Daffy fails spectacularly to bring in outlaw Nasty Canasta in "My Little Duckaroo" and earns a No-Holds-Barred Beatdown for his troubles. Daffy himself had moments of this, while his most malicious screwy antics were usually met with a comeuppance, there were times Daffy managed to squirm out of it. | |

Entitled Bastard: Several instances have him be cruel to another character, which doesn't stop him from expecting whoever he wronged to help him when his actions backfire on him. For instance, he clearly expects Speedy to give him a can opener to open the stash of canned food he found in "Moby Duck". Before this however, he made it no secret he's going to keep it all for himself and he threw several rocks at the mouse. It's even more egregious considering the two are on a deserted island. | |

Fatal Flaw: In his Jerkass persona, Daffy's temper is this. He will mouth off and antagonize others that he has no chance against just because of a stray word from them that may not even be directed at him. Best shown any time he's antagonistic towards Bugs, where Daffy could easily walk away none the worse but will resort to spiteful malice in an effort to see the rabbit suffer for once. Greed is his other, most notably in Ali Baba Bunny. He lampshades it himself in "Superior Duck". His attempts at Stealing the Credit for being The Hero oftentimes has him exaggeratedly claiming he deserves credit for everything that transpired, which has him taken away by authorities under the assumption that he was confessing for starting the mess to begin with. | |

Freudian Excuse Is No Excuse: According to a direct-to-video film, Daffy's worst traits are the result of a Dark and Troubled Past; he grew up without any family in an orphanage and thus could never celebrate the holidays with anyone, with it also being suggested he never had any friends. While this explains why he hates the holidays and believes he needs to be as selfish as possible to survive, it doesn't justify his mistreatment of others. Granny calls him out on this. | |

Stupid Evil | |
Daffy Duck / int_affd30b0 | comment |
Stupid Evil: A lot of his antagonistic bouts against Speedy seemed to lean into this. Most of his constant abuse is self-inflicted rather than performed by Speedy. It could usually be prevented if he wasn't so insistent on spiting the little rodent, who offers a truce nearly every minute or so. | |

Era-Specific Personality | |
Daffy Duck / int_b0a5540d | comment |
Era-Specific Personality Avery and Clampett developed the "screwball" version of the early period. Jones' version is usually considered the contemporary rendition, a Composite Character is used on occasion however usually in the shorts by Bob McKimson and Frank Tashlin. The adaptations from The '80s until the mid-2010s usually showcased the Jones Daffy with only a touch of Screwball Daffy. Starting with Wabbit: A Looney Tunes Production, though, his screwball persona is reintroduced. This even got a Lampshade Hanging in "Pronoun Trouble", a Looney Tunes comic book story by animation historian Earl Kress: | |

Moral Myopia | |
Daffy Duck / int_b42b7e7b | comment |
Moral Myopia: It's shown in "The Yolk's on You" that, in his mind, it's fine if he steals from you. However, if you do the same to him, then you are a Jerkass who committed a crime. "Box Office Bunny" shows that, if you sneak into a theater, then you're a criminal in Daffy's book (or at least if your name is Bugs Bunny). Nevertheless, if he does the same thing, then it's perfectly fine. | |

Smarter Than You Look: Despite constantly losing against pretty much any foe he fights it must be noted that Daffy is not stupid. He is notable for being among the few characters that can actually see through Bugs' Guile Hero actions and has proven extremely competent against Speedy. Most of his losses come from his being greedy, petty and spiteful rather than being outwitted by his opponents. This is averted in The Looney Tunes Show though, where he is actually very stupid. | |

Did Not Think This Through: In the 2004 short "Daffy Duck for President", the titular duck discovers that the courts have the power to interpret new U.S. laws, so he tells Bugs Bunny that their Duck Season, Rabbit Season feud is going to the steps of the Supreme Court (and also states he'll try to make the court rule in his favor)...except, according to Bugs, that would be a violation of the fourth amendment to the Constitution, which protects people from illegal searches and seizures. | |

Negative Continuity: Like all the other Looney Tunes, Daffy's cartoons have absolutely no continuity between them. It says a lot that he can star in both a cartoon where he's willingly fighting on the front lines of war in Daffy the Commando (1943), and then is depicted as a patriot-turned-draft dodging coward in "Draftee Daffy" (1945). | |

Yank the Dog's Chain: In cases where he does win over Bugs or others as the Villain Protagonist, it's almost always a Pyrrhic Victory at best and turned around him to be All for Nothing at worst. Like the time he raced the rabbit for "a million bucks" and cleared the finish line, only to realize he had mis-heard the phrase and it was a million little boxes. He ends up trying to do a slight politeness and give them to Bugs to seem better than he really is — only for the game show host to reveal a dollar bill is inside every single box, meaning Daffy just sunk his own victory altogether. | |

Freudian Excuse | |
Daffy Duck / int_c868a42a | comment |
Freudian Excuse: According to Daffy's Rhapsody, the reason Daffy is so daffy and self-preservative is because he's been driven insane by years of being brutally hunted by game hunters like Elmer Fudd. After years of being shot at and attacked in all sorts of ways, he eventually snapped. Bah, Humduck! shows that the reason for his greed, selfishness, and cruelty is due to growing up as an orphan, never being adopted and having no friends or family while he grew up. Thus, he decided that being nice was for chumps, and that if generosity and kindness couldn’t help him, than selfishness and greed would. Lampshaded by Tweety. The Looney Tunes Show has his many, many personality flaws be the result of a terrible childhood, having grown up in a Dysfunctional Family and been subject to constant bullying. The trauma from this was so bad that he’s implied to have repressed several of his memories. | |

Straight Man and Wise Guy: His usual dynamic with Porky Pig in all their shorts together, with Porky being an unassuming Straight Man to Daffy's kookier Wise Guy antics. Bugs Bunny, of all people, will occasionally play the Straight Man to Daffy's Wise Guy, (especially in The Looney Tunes Show); while the latter lets his inner demons get the best of him and gets himself into hot water almost all the time, Bugs keeps his cool and just tries to relax or get to somewhere he can relax until Daffy's antics become his problem. | |

Character Catchphrase | |
Daffy Duck / int_d308cbb0 | comment |
Character Catchphrase: He has several catchphrases unique to him. "Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century!" "It'sh MINE, understand? MINE!" "I'm rich! I'm wealthy! Yahoo!! I'm comfortably well-off." However, in Ali Baba Bunny, a variation of this catchphrase was shown (i.e. "I'm rich! I'm wealthy! I'm independent! I'm socially secure!"). "Sufferin' succotash!" (pronounced "Thufferin' thuccotash!") quite often in earlier shorts. However, it later was given to the similarly-voiced Sylvester the cat. "Mother!" (when something really bad is about to happen to him) "What a revolting development this is!" "Anyone for tennis?" "It's not the principle of the thing, it's the money!" (when he eagerly accepts a task that involves a huge monetary reward) "You're CORRECT! Absolutely CORRECT!" (usually followed by Daffy biting a character's nose), mostly in the early shorts. "It isn't as though [X], goodness knows." | |

Hoist by His Own Petard: After his shift to a more directly Jerkass characterization, this became the primary source of Daffy's humor - his tendency to get himself injured through acts of impulsiveness, ego or straight-up stupidity. One perfect example is "The Super Snooper", where he repeatedly gets himself injured forcing the Femme Fatale to re-enact what he thinks she did to bump off her husband... only to finally give her a chance at the episode's end to tell him both that she's unmarried and that this is the wrong address. | |

Daffy Duck / int_e034faef | comment |
Limited Animation: The Daffy/Speedy shorts produced from 1965-1968 at De Patie Freleng Enterprises and WB-Seven Arts (especially the latter) suffer from this due to very low budgets. In particular, the three shorts subcontracted to Format Films ("Quacker Tracker", "The Spy Swatter", "Music Mice-tro") fit this to a T; because that company normally worked on made-for-TV cartoons, they're hardly above a typical Hanna Barbera TV series of the time. | |

Punch-Clock Hero | |
Daffy Duck / int_e0c3f8bf | comment |
Punch-Clock Hero: This is one duck whose life purpose is the search for money and glory. Therefore it should come as no surprise that he is willing to (at least try to) be the hero a number of times with a dubious amount of success. When Daffy goes to Hollywood in the Sega Genesis game he doesn't literally bring the house down unlike the similarly named cartoon, but as a detective trying to find Yosemite Sam's priceless films that have been stolen. | |

Composite Character | |
Daffy Duck / int_e4965307 | comment |
Avery and Clampett developed the "screwball" version of the early period. Jones' version is usually considered the contemporary rendition, a Composite Character is used on occasion however usually in the shorts by Bob McKimson and Frank Tashlin. The adaptations from The '80s until the mid-2010s usually showcased the Jones Daffy with only a touch of Screwball Daffy. Starting with Wabbit: A Looney Tunes Production, though, his screwball persona is reintroduced. | |

The Chew Toy | |
Daffy Duck / int_e4f5affb | comment |
The Chew Toy: Especially in stories co-starring Bugs Bunny. The earlier, more Screwball Squirrel-like Daffy was less of a Chew Toy; it seems that Chuck Jones' recasting Daffy as a foil to Bugs' Heroic Trickster spurred the move. He also tends to be this in stories co-starring Speedy Gonzales, especially "Moby Duck", as it's very hard to feel sorry for his difficulty in opening canned food when he refused to give Speedy some of the food in exchange for the can opener. | |

Expy | |
Daffy Duck / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy Not long after his conception, director Ben "Bugs" Hardaway took the character of Daffy and made him into a rabbit character called Bugs' Bunny (note the possessive term). This character was ultimately a failure, however, as he was even more obnoxious than Daffy ever was, to the point where the audience was rooting more for the victims rather than the rabbit. Following this "Bugs' Bunny" would supposedly provide inspiration for Bugs Bunny, who maintained a similar (if somewhat toned down) abrasiveness as Daffy. In this case the Expy would become an even bigger hit than Daffy himself and continues being one of the most notable cartoon characters to date. | |

After Daffy upholds his side of the agreement, the Mayor pays him for the time it takes Daffy to do so (not enough to complete one dollar) and tells Daffy to leave. | |

Foul Waterfowl | |
Daffy Duck / int_ea0c6ff0 | comment |
Foul Waterfowl: Daffy is portrayed as a greedy and narcissistic duck who relishes in messing with the likes of Elmer Fudd or Bugs Bunny for the hell of it, or to get something he wants, though Porky Pig was a more frequent target of his shenanigans. However, as he is the one that usually starts the cartoon's conflict, he often had some sort of karma handed to him by the end. His vices were especially brought to the forefront from "Rabbit Fire" onward, emphasizing his callous vanity to make him a better foil to Bugs, not returning to his earlier screwball personality until Wabbit: A Looney Tunes Production. | |

Team Rocket Wins | |
Daffy Duck / int_f3d38c6d | comment |
Team Rocket Wins: Even following his Flanderization into a Butt-Monkey, Daffy seemed to score more victories than most other fall-guys in the series, knocking out Taz in a Curbstomp Battle in Ducking the Devil, being the first foe to defeat Speedy Gonzales in Mucho Locos to name a few. Counting an obscure Tang endorsement from ''The Bugs Bunny Show'' and Cartoon Network's Big Game from 2001, he has also defeated Bugs twice as well, and even in shorts where he didn't defeat Bugs, he was able to get an occasional hit on the rabbit. Also, perhaps due to being created by fans of the shorts and the character, some later features tend to throw Daffy a bone a few times as well, including the very end of Looney Tunes: Back in Action. | |

Idiot Houdini: "A Pest In The House". As the Golden Collection commentary notes, Daffy for once isn't actively malicious in this short, and is even trying to do his job as bellhop with diligence, his looney nature still manages to be the constant bane of the hotel guest however, who constantly punts Elmer for being disturbed. Notably this is the only Chuck Jones short aside from "Rabbit Fire" where Daffy comes out the victor. | |

Pet the Dog | |
Daffy Duck / int_ff7f34c5 | comment |
Pet the Dog: After his jerkish personality takes root, he has a few nicer moments to show he has a heart deep down. Daffy becomes openly angry with Elmer for shooting a smaller duck in "Quack Shot". After covering the bird in bandages, he angrily threatens Elmer he'll "be in trouble" if he shoots another duck. He's sad in "Mexican Mousepiece" when he learns many overseas cats are starving to death. He also lets one of the mice he plans on sending away do something before sending him off, though it's unclear exactly what it was. Towards the end of "Fiesta Fiasco", he's grateful upon learning Speedy and other Mexican mice set up a surprise birthday party for him. Yes and no in "Dux's Tux's" when he saves Porky and Petunia's wedding via using an X-ray to reveal Porky did have the wedding ring and giving him a thumbs up. However, it's all but stated he's going to charge Porky since Petunia broke said X-ray machine. Granted, he implies it was expensive. | |
