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.

...is Chuck Jones spinning in his grave. "Duck Dodgers" is proof that animation is a dying art. In his book "Chick Amuck", Jones said that animation is primarily a visual art. A cartoon is true animation if you can turn off the sound and still understand the whole thing. If you need the sound to understand what's going on, it's illustrated radio. "Duck Dodgers" is illustrated radio of the worst sort. The character was never intended to be sustained over more than one cartoon, and even Jones' own reprise, 1980's "Duck Dodgers and the Return of the 24½th Century" fell flat. Unfortunately, Cartoon Network has seen fit to remove one of the two Sunday evening showings of the exemplary "Toon Heads" to inflict a rerun of this turkey. I suggest they keep it confined to its first-run slot on late Friday night, the later the better, or, better yet, consign it to the dustbin of failure.
Hello it me regularshow1 and today I'm going to do a review on a great show that I started watching in 2007 on boomerang its called Duck Dodgers. I liked that this show it has a lot of adult jokes like the episode Talent Show a Go-Go which Dodgers(A.K.A)Daffy steals Tom Jones voice and I didn't even know who he was until I watched this episode in 2009. Also I just found out that Dave Mustaine of the band Heavy Metal band Megadeth guest star in the episode In space no one can hear you rock and I really like that episode as well and I don't even like Heavy Metal Music. Anyway I like really liked this show was very funny. All right guys this Regularshow1 saying have a nice day. See you later. 10/10
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!
