Duck Dodgers is a 2003-2005 animated TV series based off the classic 1953 Looney Tunes short, Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century, by Chuck Jones. The series originally aired on Cartoon Network, with the last few episodes premiering on Boomerang after its cancellation.It was especially notable among Looney Tunes properties as the main star was not Bugs Bunny, but Daffy Duck, as Captain Duck Dodgers: a Small Name, Big Ego now forced into full-on Genius Ditz mode as the noble defender of the Galactic Protectorate... while still being kind of a jerkass. All of which led to the unusual situation of the main character filling the role of both The Hero and The Millstone, as nearly half the situations to be resolved were directly Dodgers' fault to begin with.He is paired with Porky Pig, who reprises his role as the sensible, competent and Eager Young Space Cadet. The show also stars returning opponent Marvin the Martian as Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain Commander X-2.Duck Dodgers also had several cameos by established Looney Tunes stars with appropriate science-fiction trappings (Wile E. Coyote plays a very obvious Predator homage in one episode), often using them to lampoon or satirize the very genre they were portraying in classic Looney Tunes style. The episode "The Green Loontern" is notable for featuring the Green Lantern characters from DC Comics after Duck Dodgers accidentally gets Hal Jordan's outfit at the cleaners. Notably, this episode turned out so popular that Daffy as the Green Loontern is a playable character in LEGO Batman 3: Beyond Gotham, with Joe Alaskey reprising his role as the duck (it would later become his final role as Daffy before his untimely death in February 2016).Despite its short shelf life, this show managed to gain a widespread and devoted fanbase, largely for pulling off exactly what more ambitious attempts at modernizing the Looney Tunes could not: conveying their distinctive brand of, well, looniness into an entirely different genre.After a decade of Keep Circulating the Tapes, the first two seasons were finally released on DVD compilations, and several years after that season 3 was made available on Boomerang's digital subscription service. It also received a complete series Blu-Ray release in 2023. | |

However, while the series had more than two seasons, Marvin never gained a third solo cartoon. Also, a Martian rabbit Marvin was hunting stated he now knew "why Bugs Bunny turned this cameo down".

Chekhov's Gun: At the beginning of "The Fudd", X-2 mentions that he's terrified of heights, while Dodgers reveals that he's completely illiterate; Cadet mentions that Dodgers returned the literacy tapes he bought for the captain last Christmas. At the end of the episode, X-2 needs to overcome his acrophobia, while Dodgers is the only person able to save the day by reading a document. Thankfully, he remembers the songs from the tapes and is able to read because of them. In the same episode, when Dodgers and X-2 are fighting over their claim to a new planet, they and Cadet uncover a glowing crystal that strikes them all with a bolt of energy. Later on, they realize that not only does it protect them from being transformed by The Fudd, it can be used as a cure. | |

Only Sane Man: I.Q. High sometimes gives off this vibe. Whereas most of the Protectorate is comically incompetent in some way, he's usually the beacon of reason. The Queen serves this role for the Martians, which is why most decisions and negotiations are made between the two of them, establishing a sort of Friendly Rivalry. | |

Ditto Aliens | |
Duck Dodgers / int_26263771 | comment |
Ditto Aliens: Partially averted. There are at least six different and distinct types of Martians seen: tall humanoids (Tyr'ahnee and Z-9), short humanoids (X-2), canine (K-9), avian (Instant Martians), cyborg (Dish) and droid (Centurions). However, when multiple Martian commanders of the 'tall' type are seen, they do all, in fact, look alike. note While both the Instant Martians and Centurions also all look alike, this is justified due to obvious genetic engineering for the former and mass production for the latter. As a counterweight, outside of the military, civilian Martians clearly dress individually. | |

Duck Dodgers / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: In "Detained Duck", Drake Darkstar says that Dodgers selling Cadet's sister to the sausage factory is "cold". Drake himself was openly threatening the Cadet with cannibalism earlier in the episode, but even he won't let some things slide. The Martian Queen may suggest stealing cybernetic technology. She may even allow the kidnapping of citizens. But when Doctor Maniac demonstrates questionable levels of competence prior to the operation on Jamie Winters, she considers it an ethical line a bit too far. The Martian Commander threatens to hurt Baby Smarty Pants if the Portectorate came any closer. However the baby's crying made him reveal he was only bluffing. | |

In "Duck Codgers", Dodgers loses track of Cadet for a few minutes while they're searching for the antidote to their Rapid Aging and then comes upon a pile of dust with his glasses on top. Thinking that he aged to death, Dodgers cradles the glasses and laments that he never said goodbye. Then the Cadet shows up and offers Dodgers a handkerchief. Dodgers quickly realizes the implications. | |

Actor Allusion: Jodi Benson plays a Disney Princess parody in "Pig Planet". Building on that, Porky's nephews and niece (Porko, Puerco, and Sow) are voiced by Rob Paulsen, Jess Harnell, and Tress MacNeille, and are known for being rather rambunctious. Why is that familiar? Michael Dorn plays all the Klunkins except Sa'am. In the Mexican Spanish dub of the episode The Mark of Xero, The Cadet references Dragon Ball, as his Mexican voice actor (Ernesto Lezama) voiced Oolong in that series.note Ironically enough, the Cadet's voice actor in the Japanese dub (Naoki Tatsuta) is the original Japanese voice of the same character as well. | |

Bad Boss: While Dodgers does care about the Cadet, he doesn't treat him well for the most part. Not only does he constantly shirk all his duties and make the Cadet do all the work, but he also has a tendency to insult and belittle him, not to mention hog all the glory for himself when the Cadet has saved the day. | |

Adaptational Heroism: However, despite the traditional Daffy Duck selfishness and It's All About Me nature, he does have have a nobler side to his character. His Jerkass moments mostly seem to stem from his tendency to get carried away by his base desires, or forgetting that he's not the only actual person in the universe. On the occasions when he manages to overcome these tendencies he can be downright heroic. | |

Not Now, We're Too Busy Crying Over You: In "Duck Codgers", Dodgers loses track of Cadet for a few minutes while they're searching for the antidote to their Rapid Aging and then comes upon a pile of dust with his glasses on top. Thinking that he aged to death, Dodgers cradles the glasses and laments that he never said goodbye. Then the Cadet shows up and offers Dodgers a handkerchief. Dodgers quickly realizes the implications. In "I'm Gonna Get You, Fat Sucka", Dodgers awakens from being brainwashed by Count Muerte and yells for Cadet, but gets no response. He tearfully assumes that Muerte killed him, only to be surprised by Cadet asking him if they hadn't better get a move on. | |

Helpless Kicking: Played for Laughs in the episode "Hooray for Hollywood Planet." While a director is trying to shoot a scene with a giant alien lizard, it chomps down on him mid-rant. His stubby legs are shown comically flailing as they dangle out of the creature's mouth while he continues to rant. Unlike a lot of examples of this trope, it is non-fatal and he is fine in the next scene. | |

Evil Laugh: Parodied on many occasions. When the Space Pirates attack a cruise ship: When the Legion of Duck Doom debated on how to get revenge on Dodgers, Roboto says he has a plan and start laughing maniacally, followed by every villain in the room laughing... until Sa'am wonders what the hell were they laughing about. | |

Knight of Cerebus: Subverted with Sinestro. He initially looks like he'll be played as a serious villain, but when Dodgers meets him proves just as goofy as every other character in the show. Played straight with General Z-9 who's treated as a serious villain in season 2. | |

Took a Level in Dumbass: Duck Dodgers. While much of the humor in the original Duck Dodgers shorts relied on Dodgers thinking he's a great hero but in fact being a total failure, he wasn't a total Cloudcuckoolander. In this show, though... In Season 3, Commander X-2 becomes less and less competent compared to previous seasons. | |

Like a Duck Takes to Water: Dodgers, Dodgers, Dodgers. IQ High is Wrong Genre Savvy when he unfreezes him, thinking he's found a 20th-century hero and expects him to be better at everything because he's from the past. He wises up pretty quick, but Dodgers still has his uses as no one else in the 2350s is stupid enough to attempt some pretty crazy stunts. And some of those stunts actually work. Some. | |

Meaningful Name: Queen Tyr'ahnee. Though, to be fair, she's never shown doing anything especially tyrannical, and is actually quite popular with her subjects. Aside from the pun, the name may well be a Shout-Out to R.A. Salvatore's Drizzt series, since she's got the 'dark elf look' and Salvatore is mighty fond of combining apostrophes with a Meaningful Name. | |

Four-Fingered Hands | |
Duck Dodgers / int_6e92a631 | comment |
Four-Fingered Hands: Mostly applies to the characters played by legacy Looney Tunes characters. The Martians and many alien races only have four fingers. Most human characters have five digits, with Captain Star Johnson being the most prominent among the recurring cast. I.Q. Hi, as a legacy character from the original 1953 short, is one of the few human characters with four fingers. Guest stars based on real life figures such as Tom Jones, Brian Wilson, Ed McMahon, and Dave Mustaine also use five-fingered hands. Many of the Green Lantern characters featured in "The Green Loontern", mainly the human (e.g., Hal Jordan, Guy Gardner, John Stewart) and humanoid alien (e.g., Sinestro, Katma Tui, Arisia) characters, also have five digits. | |

The singular exception to this is Black Eel, an Expy of the Aquaman villain Black Manta, who has a vendetta of the Aquaman-like Sea Man. While he has a harpoon gun, he seems to be utterly useless when out of the water. | |

Vile Villain, Saccharine Show: Most of the villains were usually Played for Laughs at least or were even harmless, befitting the show's Looney Tunes inspired nature. However, General Z9 from the two-part originally planned series finale "Of Course You Realize, This Means War, and Peace," is not one of them. He seeks to take over Mars and conquer the Earth, even enslaving the Queen, and is (save for the very end of part two) played completely straight and menacing the entire way through. | |

To cap it off, Tyrah'nee called off her marriage with x-2 and declared war on Earth. Dodgers ate all the cakes. And on a sidenote, Black Eel and Seaman resume their feud. | |

Too Dumb to Live | |
Duck Dodgers / int_b58b4e3c | comment |
Too Dumb to Live: So, so, so many examples. In "I'm Going to Get You, Fat Sucka", Court Muerte hypnotizes Dodgers into becoming his servant, so that the vampire can feast on Cadet's fat. At one point, Dodgers disguises an iron maiden as a bed for Cadet—only to get annoyed at how long it takes the pig to get ready to sleep and demonstrate how easy it is to lie down in bed. Cue Amusing Injuries. In this universe, Elmer Fudd is an evil alien with the power to change all sentient beings into mindless clones through a disease called "The Fudd." After successfully infecting the entire populations of Earth and Mars, plus the entire Galactic Protectorate except for Dodgers, Cadet, and X-2, Elmer reveals his master plan: gather all of his Fudd slaves and have them...invade the Sun. It's telling when even Dodgers knows how stupid such a plan is. | |

Later in the episode, when Dodgers discovers that his secret agent is late, he is furious and asks, "What kind of a jerk shows up two hours late?!" and refers to the agent as a "knucklehead" (until Dodgers finds out she looks like). | |

Shout-Out | |
Duck Dodgers / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The second-to-last scene of "The Fowl Friend" is nearly a word-for-word copy of the second-to-last scene of The Iron Giant. It's then repeated in a later episode just to rub it in. Porky's nephews and niece in "Pig Planet" are Expys of Yakko, Wakko and Dot. Rob Paulsen, Jess Harnell and Tress Macneille (the same voice actors) were brought in to provide voices for Porko, Puerco and Sow. In the MMORPG episode, Daffy transforms into Beaky Buzzard, Axle Gator, and Muttley. And we can't forget: "Samurai Quack", including the main villain being a near-perfect expy of Aku, down to the same voice actor, the now-late Iwamatsu Mako. Samurai Jack creator, Genndy Tartakovsky, also provided a short cameo for that episode. In the episode "Green Loontern", itself a shout out, a shot of the captured members of Green Lantern Corps has a brief cameo of what appears to be Mortal Kombat's Raiden (which becomes hilarity in hindsight after Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universenote although in the epilogue to that game it was Sonya who got the Green Lantern ring...). There's also The Fudd. From the eponymous episode, the Cadet gets the idea to sneak them in by disguising themselves as the guards. When asked by X-2 if this plan will work, the Cadet answers that he's seen it work before. When asked by Dodgers where he's seen it work, he answers, "The Wizard of Oz." In the same episode, there's a reference to the original short, where Dodgers and X-2 argue over who's claiming an asteroid for their planet. In "K-9 Quarry", Marvin and K-9 are on a hunting trip and end up being hunted down by Wile E Coyote in a Predator suit. His trophy room is also filled with various Hanna-Barbera cartoon characters. The Martian Commander shares a voice actor, Billy West, with Zapp Brannigan. In "The Trial of Duck Dodgers", Dodgers is about to bombard a Martian ship and "has only one pass at this." The Cadet tells him: One episode has a space prison called "Wantannaguannamo Bay". The end of one episode has a spurned Martian Queen shooting up mechanical dummies that look like Duck Dodgers, and drops the line: "So they're mechanical!" (with a connotation of "So what?") This is a reference to the end of the Bugs Bunny episode "Hair Raising Hare", where Bugs says this about a mechanical female rabbit. The episode "The Mark of Xero" is a shout out to both Zorro and Daffy's previous role as The Scarlet Pumpernickel. The intro began with the famous Looney Tunes rings. Also, in the sketches seen in the intro, if one looks closely, Duck Dodgers is wearing a headpiece similar to the one he wore in the original shorts. And the ship-chase at the end of the intro is very similar to the chase at the end of the intro to Blake's 7. In "Til Doom Do Us Part" the introduction of the Legion of Duck Doom is an exact copy of the opening credits to Challenge of the Super Friends. Queen Tyr'ahnee, in appearance and in name both, is suspiciously Drow-like. The nebula battle in "The Queen is Wild" has moments that are taken shot for shot from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. In another episode, we have a rapidly aging Dodgers and Cadet walking around to a tune that sounds like a dead ringer for The Odd Couple theme. Another famous Loony Tune is referenced in "Of Course You Know This Means War And Peace pt. 1": The exchange between X-2 and Dish in "Of Course You Know This Means War And Peace pt. 2" is taken from Kill Bill. In addition, Quentin Tarantino guest stars in one episode, essentially playing Pai Mei from the same movie. The segments from season 1 episode 8 are named for Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan and the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Spock's Brain". When Z-9 orders Counselor Dish to eliminate Marvin, she replies with "By your command.", mirroring the inflections of the Cylon Lucifer from the original Battlestar Galactica. In one episode, when Dodgers is on a 'villain' kick, the Space Cadet is saddled with the name "Chaos Boy" and his Fan Disservice uniform consists mostly of a hood with the Chaos Star on it. When Dodgers runs out on the Martian Queen in "To Love a Duck", he says that it wasn't meant to be, but "we'll always have Paris". In one episode, Kelly Ripa stars as a Stalker with a Crush and then a scene from Fatal Attraction is referenced when a frightened Dodgers and Cadet find a pot full of rabbit stew simmering in the kitchen. Dodgers and Cadet are trying to use a small ship to evade defenses built around a full scale assault. Lampshaded by Commander X-2, "How many lives must that accursed movie claim?" Evidently, it wasn't the first time someone tried it either, as a Martian Centurion told the Commander what Dodgers was attempting, his response was, "What, again?" The episode "Deathmatch Duck" is a Whole-Plot Reference to the Star Trek: The Original Series episode "Arena" in which Captain Kirk fights the Gorn on Cestus III. Dodgers being promoted to Admiral in "Of Course You Know This Means War and Peace", only to end up demoted back to captain, is exactly what happened to Kirk. At the end of The Mark of Xero, the Cadet mentioned that the crowd got bored and went home to watch old reruns of Dragon Ball. | |

Preferable Impersonator: "Detained Duck" has a Spot the Imposter moment where the Cadet has to determine which between the real Dodgers and an impostor named Drake Darkstar. Dodgers attempts to help out, but everything he lists are mean things he did to his cadet. In the end, Cadet knowingly declares the impostor as being the real one after feeling that he'll ultimately be this trope. | |

Disguised in Drag: In classic Looney Tunes style, Dodgers does this in an attempt to seduce a few guards. It doesn't work anywhere near as well as it did in the old shorts, though. He gets through anyway by bribing the guards. Also, the Cadet's disguises in "Big Bug Mamas" and "Duck Deception", which do work. And in the latter case, he gets into his role a bit too much. X-2 has a moment of this with the Centurion robots in "Of Course You Know This Means War and Peace pt. 2". | |

Rubber-Forehead Aliens: Used hilariously often, given that the animated medium makes this trope completely unnecessary. The best example of which is in the depictions of Martian wildlife, which is basically Earth wildlife with a green tint and some goofy antennae... sometimes an extra arm or two. "Goofy" is the word: apart from Agent K-9, who's a holdover from the original Marvin/Bugs cartoons, the most prominent examples are Martian gophers. Who are, of course, just the Goofy Gophers with the above alterations. | |

Brain Bleach: Requested by I.Q. Hi twice in "Lame Duck Mind". He first asks Manobrain if he can erase their memory of the contents of Dodger's mind. Manobrain assures him that he can wipe their memories the second they leave Dodger's brain. The second occurs when they achieve their objective of rescuing the President of Space, only to find that he'd passed the time trapped in his closet dressing in his wife's clothing. In that instance, it is no sooner asked than granted. | |

Undying Loyalty: K9 to the Commander. He's willing to take shots, endure pain and even dying to save his master. While the Centurion robots secretly mock Commander X-2 to no end, but they are willing to die to protect their Queen. The show used a variant which featured a robot (a rare Warner Bros. acknowledgment of The Iron Giant) serving as this to Dodgers, to the point of taking a meteor for Dodgers. In two different episodes. The Cadet is also no slouch in this department. He keeps Dodgers out of trouble in spite of virtually never getting rewarded for it. | |
