"Bugs is who we want to be. Daffy is who we are."
Cquote2


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 Flanderized by Chuck Jones (and Friz Freleng, even more so) into a Jerkass Small Name, Big Ego, most famously paired with Bugs 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 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.

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".

  • Daffy's Rhapsody, a completely musical short using Mel Blanc's earlier recording. Coincidentally was released two months before Daffy's 75th anniversary.
Daffy Duck is the Trope Namer for:
Daffy Duck (and his cartoons) have shown the following tropes:
  • Acme Products: Daffy has been known to use these a few times.
  • Alliterative Name
  • Always Second Best
    • Arguable due to also being an Unpopular Popular Character. He's not just liked second to Bugs, he gets nothing but cricket chirps and tomatoes in the face. Not to mention if there's another character around for comparison, they'll usually prove more popular as well, sometimes even a similar Butt Monkey just to add insult to injury.
  • America Saves the Day: The early WW 2 cartoons used this.
  • Amusing Injuries
  • Anti-Hero: Type V
  • Ash Face: Most infamously in the short "Rabbit Fire".
  • Attention Whore: While the motivation of this trait has changed over the years, this has always been a consistent aspect of the character.
  • Ax Crazy: While his over-the-top insanity was usually fairly harmless, he certainly had his moments of this, especially in "The Daffy Doc".
  • Badly-Battered Babysitter: "The Up-Standing Sitter"
    • Any time he has to watch his own kids ("Wise Quacks") or his eggs ("Quackodile Tears").
  • Breakout Character: Intended as a one shot foil for Porky in Avery's "Porky's Duck Hunt". Audiences became fascinated by the character's wacky abrasive personality, leading WB to place him in more shorts. These days he stands as the most prominent Looney Tunes star outside fellow Breakout Character Bugs Bunny.
  • Butt Monkey: Most later interpretations, especially Chuck Jones' version, to the point of playing the Straw Loser in the series. It gets Deconstructed however, in Back in Action.
  • Captain Ersatz: The Walter Lantz cartoon star Woody Woodpecker was, shall we way, "inspired" by Daffy's early screwball incarnation.
  • Carnivore Confusion: The Warner Bros. standard. This gets really bizarre in later cartoons like "Duck Soup to Nuts" and "Daffy Duck Hunt", where Daffy is almost as anthropomorphized as Porky.
  • Catch Phrase:
    • "You're desthpicable!"
    • "Woo hoo-hoo-HOO-hoo-hoo!" (while bouncing around like a maniac)
    • "Duck Dodgers in the 24 1/2 Century!"
    • "Sufferin' succotash!" (pronounced "Thufferin' thuccotash!") quite often in earlier shorts, before it was given to the similarly-voiced Sylvester the cat.
  • The Chew Toy
  • Cloudcuckoolander: Especially in earlier shorts, even the later more ambitious versions aren't all that stable at times.
  • Characterization Marches On: Not only was he not conniving and arrogant in his early appearances, but he actually said Bugs Bunny was his hero. Oh how the times have changed.
  • 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 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:
Cquote1

"Why am I so irresistible?"

Cquote2
Cquote1

"I am a duck bent on self-preservation."

Cquote2
  • Depending on the Writer: One of the most notable examples in the series, nearly every director had a unique take on Daffy, some baring little resemblance to others (though this is partially due to the character's Flanderization).
  • Deuteragonist
  • Dirty Coward: A self-confessed "craven little coward", though will occasionally defy his fears if promises of fame and fortune are brought into the situation.
  • Duck Season! Rabbit Season!: Co-Trope Namer
  • Early Installment Weirdness: Daffy was originally a mindless heckler who went about his antics for no clear motivation, and was adorned with a pudgy, tiny design. Clampett began fleshing out Daffy's character later on, before Jones, Freleng and McKimson settled into their own interpretations of the waterfowl.
  • Embarrassing Middle Name: Daffy's had several middle names, though none of them official:
  • 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 80's onward usually showcased the Jones Daffy with only a touch of Screwball Daffy.
    • This even got a Lampshade Hanging in "Pronoun Trouble", a Looney Tunes comic book story by animation historian Earl Kress:
Cquote1

Daffy: I'm not a bad sort. Why does this keep happening to me? Oh, sure, I was kind of goofy when I was younger and then went through an egotistical, greedy phase, but I don't deserve this...

Cquote2
Cquote1

"And I thought French was a romantic language!"

Cquote2
  • 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.
    • Of course 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.
  • Face Doodling: "Daffy Doodles"
  • Fast Tunnelling: Perhaps he learned it from Bugs. In at least one episode he was shown to be tunneling someplace by himself.
  • Faux Affably Evil: In contrast to his mere Jerkass or Affably Evil persona beforehand, the De Patie Freleng shorts evolved Daffy into an motivelessly ruthless villain, though with the same bumbling pathos as before. This depended on the scenario however, with some shorts presenting him as more sympathetic antagonist or an outright buddy of Speedy.
  • Feather Fingers
  • Femme Fatale: Hata Mari of Plane Daffy and the unnamed duck suspect in The Super Snooper are both parodies of the type. It turns out that the latter hasn't actually done anything wrong, but she still acts the part.
  • Flanderization Again one of the most notable examples in the franchise (if not the animated scene as a whole), evolving from a slightly bombastic Cloudcuckoolander to a luckless Ted Baxter.
  • Foil: To Bugs Bunny
  • Forgot I Could Fly: A running gag for Daffy, the earliest occurrence being the short "The Million Hare".
  • Four-Fingered Hands
  • Fur Is Clothing: In "The Wise-Quacking Duck", confronted with the oven, he distracts his antagonist by performing a strip-tease routine with his feathers.
  • G-Rated Mental Illness: Early on. In The Looney Tunes Show this gets upgraded to Ambiguous Disorder status.
  • Harmless Villain: In most of his antagonist moments with Bugs and Speedy.
  • He-Man Woman Hater: He claims to be one in "Plane Daffy". It doesn't stop Hatta Mari from trying to seduce him (and succeeding).
  • Henpecked Husband: In The Henpecked Duck.
    • 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!"
  • "I Am" Song: Several.
  • 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. 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 never utilized this trope.)
  • Image Song: "Daffy Duck's Rhapsody", performed by Mel Blanc; recently turned into a 3D short film.
  • Incoming Ham: "It's me again!"
  • Ineffectual Sympathetic Villain: Took this role more later on.
  • It Amused Me: Rather consistantly in his earlier Screwy Squirrel years. He became more ambitious and "self prethervational" in his callousness in later shorts (though that doesn't mean he doesn't still enjoy it).

Daffy: "Just lucky, I guess"
