The show is ok, but there's one thing that really bugs me...

Furball and Sweetie Bird.

I HATE how Furball is treated like the scum of the Earth, just because he's a cat and that Sweetie can get away with ANYTHING! I know it's a take on the cat and mouse genre, but it only really works when the cat is a jerk and the mouse/bird/whatever is being threatened or the winner of the episode isn't set in stone.

Really, Sweetie is just a bratty, downright EVIL mary-sue, who never gets her commence around Furball and Furball is the poor, empathetic butt-monkey of the show.

I'll take Elmyra over Sweetie any day, as at least Elmyra has good intentions.

I'm guessing you're also one of people who are not a fan of "Buckaroo Bugs" which has similar complaints from Looney Tune fans (not from me).

Not really, as that cartoon was a one-shot, while TTA had Furball being beaten up multiple times in multiple episodes.

I loved this show since I was a kid, but I never found any flaws in the show. Except on certain episodes on the animation, TMS and StarToons both have the best animation in their animation of the episodes they made, but TMS only made about 19 episodes while StarToons only made 3.

But some made by Kennedy Cartoons‎ (only for the first season) and Akom had bad designs on the characters and lame animation. Wang‎ did a decent job at the episodes they made and they look okay.

Here are my many reasons (animation studios notwithstanding and I'm not aware of whod id what)
Pluclky as the (Freleng more so than Jones) take on modern Daffy in most.


Too much attempt to attack Dan Quayle. Had they been made to 9/11, they would probaly make fun of the soldiers fighting the troops unlike the WWII cartoons, save WWII's Draftee Daffy (and even that's basically likeable(.


TOo much hyperactive movement just because of the source material. Hey guys, I know that you were couped up during the 1980s like the Disney animators on Alladin's Genie and that you want the characters to just burst out but it gets enough to give seizures (yes, fast movement by characters can do that).


Also the reason the original poster stated.

And that's a bad thing?

While the films themselves are pretty entertaining, the "irredeemable butthole" Daffy used in Freleng's cartoons with the duck from the mid-50s onward is just too mean to be a particularly likable character on his own. Jones's later Daffy was at least endearing; I'd even suggest he retained a subtle streak of his original "daffiness" in the midst of the ego.

I liked the show as a kid. Particularly Plucky Duck, but I found a lot that was funny about the show overall. The defective episodes animated by Kennedy are basically un-watchable. Still, there are several stand-out episodes that are entertaining even today. In some ways the program never really reached its full potential, but it was great for what it was at the time. Clearly it was a new take on or extension of the Looney Tunes universe, but done in a respectful way that didn't crap all over classic Looney Tunes like later movies and the new CN series do.

Plus at least TTA kept original character models, instead of using new, ugly designs for characters.

I like the show, but I hate only 1 character, and that's Furrball. I HATE Furrball so much! He ruins the show with his cringy attitude and doesn't even speak like the rest of the NORMAL, TALKING characters. I just despise Furrball - he's very annoying, I can't stand him, and has no reason to be in the show. The show would be much better without that idiotic Furrball.
