Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })His Bitter Half is a 1950 Looney Tunes short directed by Friz Freleng. It stars Daffy Duck as a simple bachelor who discovers, when reading the want ads, that a rich widow is looking to marry a "refined, single, gentleman duck." Daffy, drawn to the prospects of both marriage and money, immediately rushes to marry her. Unfortunately for him, she turns out to be a physically huge woman with an incredibly domineering personality. To make matters worse, she has a bratty son named Wentworth who constantly torments and causes trouble for Daffy, with the widow showing zero sympathy for the poor black duck.The cartoon was remade in 1962 as Honey's Money, with Yosemite Sam in the role of Daffy and Wentworth being an oafish but well-meaning young child rather than a spoiled brat. | |

Asshole Victim: Daffy marries a wealthy widow with the clear motivation of money, and loses his romantic streak the moment the wedding is over. As it turns out however, the widow was holding an even worse facade and henpecks him straight after. | |

Bowdlerization | |
His Bitter Half / int_a49914aa | comment |
Bowdlerization: The FOX Merrie Melodies Show version of this short cut the part where Wentworth plays Cowboys and Indians and pretends to be shot and dying. The version of this cartoon shown on Nickelodeon's Looney Tunes on Nickelodeon cut the part where Wentworth cautiously tries to light a string of fireworks as Nickelodeon censors feared kids will imitate this dangerous act. It should be noted that that scene was left uncut until 1992 and the above scene that FOX edited was shown uncensored on Nickelodeon both before and after 1992. | |

Awful Wedded Life: Let's just say that marriage to the widow is less than fulfilling for Daffy. | |
