zsofikam Darkwing Duck, or "Dorkwing Duck" as I used to call it, I consider to be one of the greatest animated shows ever, along with Little Bear, PB&J Otter, Rugrats, Talespin, Courage The Cowardly Dog, Animaniacs, Ren And Stimpy, Pinky And The Brain, DuckTales, Moo Mesa, and The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. For one thing, have I mentioned that the theme song is one of the catchiest theme songs along with the theme songs for Moo Mesa, Pinky And The Brain, DuckTales, CatDog, Sagwa, Maisy, PB&J Otter, and The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh? Darkwing is very funny, as is Launchpad. Plus, Goslyn reminds me of myself when I was young. But what really makes the series if you ask me are the villains, some of my favourites being Bushroot, Dr Fossil, Phineas Sharp, Ammonia Pine, Megavolt, Splatter Phoenix, and Taurus Bulba. Negaduck, Liquidator, Quackerjack, Steelbeak, Isis Vanderchill, Tuskernini, Moliarty, and Camille Leon are also enjoyable. The only villain that I have never particularly cared for is Jambalaya Jake, he's just a little bolshy for my taste. Anything else? You bet there is! I simply love the lullaby for Goslyn in the first episode Darkly Dawns the Duck, it's just so soothing. Plus, I simply can't help but feel bad for Bushroot, he was so badly teased by his coworkers and had his budget cut for no reason other than that he loved plants and his coworker Rhoda Dendron so much. Same goes for Dr Fossil. I should mention a couple of things that I have always wondered: (1) Before Bushroot became a plant-duck it was pretty easy to tell that he was balding but after his mutation he suddenly gains a head full of purple hair. (2) Since we get to see Bushroot pre-mutation, what did Dr Fossil look like as a duck before his transformation? I'm willing to bet that he was very old judging by his appearance. Turning himself into a dinosaur could have rejuvenated him somehow and been an attempt to get back at his coworkers for viewing him and his dinosaurs as purely a thing of the past. Anyway, another thing I admire is many of the character designs. For example, Bushroot resembles a thistle with his purple "hair" and prior to his mutation when he was Dr Reginald Bushroot, he was much shorter than everyone else and balding. Other examples of brilliant design include Gosalyn resembling my childhood self not only in personality but in appearance as well, as well as Honker's resemblance to Chuckie from Rugrats, as well as reminding me of my childhood friend Sean. Finally, I love the witty dialogue such as "being the world's only mutant plant-duck is a lonely job."
Catherine Ray Ever since I was a little girl, I loved Darkwing Duck! I loved the way he said, "I am the terror that flaps in the night..." and the way he talked with his smooth, dark voice. I even loved his naughty, mischievous, little daughter Gosalyn, because she was spirited! I wish Disney had made a Darkwing Duck movie because I loved this series from the beginning to the end! I wish they had a fourth season or even more, and I could have seen, "Pranks for the Memories," if they hadn't canceled the good series after the end of season 3 because it was a very good series. I missed good old Darkwing Duck after they removed the show from Toon Disney and replaced it with Jetix.
crowrobot When I was growing up, a little child of the 90's, the coolest show around (in my opinion) was Disney's highly hilarious superhero cartoon "Darkwing Duck". Every chance I got I followed the adventures of the egotistical crime fighter. Sadly, those days are gone and done, with mostly crap cartoons littering the networks these days. But "Darkwing Duck" reigns supreme.One thing that you always remember about the show was it's sense of humor. The jokes ranged from cartoony pratfalls to satire to the just plain odd. The voice talent is also hilarious, with the immortal Jim Cummings in the spotlight as the title role (and about 4 or 5 other characters). Cummings was truly uproarious as the crimefighter with "the ego the size of a small planet" (in one villain's words).It's been a long time since "Darkwing Duck" was canceled. But it lives on in all children of the 90's memories. Disney, PLEASE release a DVD!
Hwoarangsguardie When I was three, this show came on. I loved it, my entire family did (which shows that it was not just a cartoon for little kids). I was, as much as I'm ashamed to admit it, in love with none other than the title duck. I still watch it on Toon Disney (I think it just went off as I was typing this) and recommend it to anyone! The 'daring' deeds of this delightful duck will leave even dastardly doers of evil dying from laughter. This show is Disney's masterpiece of a cartoon! I just wish they'd do a movie or some new episodes or something. I guess its just human nature to wish for the impossible! ***** out of ****
