The sitcom was based on characters created by Peck in his Dark Horse comic. Klasky Csupo animated the series and produced it along with Reno & Osborn Productions for Paramount Television. [u]Description[/u] The series consists of 70 episodes that aired on USA on Saturday nights from 1994 to 1997 on the USA Network. The initial showrunners were Peck, Reno and Osborn, and the show was produced in association with Paramount Television. The animation was produced by Klasky Csupo. In later years, the show running duties went to David Misch and Michael Markowitz. Creator and Executive Producer, Everett Peck, was with the show for its entire run. Producer Gene Laufenberg was with the show for most of its run. Scott Wilk and Todd Yvega created original music for the series, including the theme. The first season also featured excerpts from Frank Zappa's published catalog. The original timeslot for Duckman episodes while still being produced was changed to later at night due to complaints from parents about children seeing the adult humor-oriented show. Duckman is the only character to appear in every episode. [u]Plot[/u] The series follows the adventures of a lascivious private detective duck who lives with his family and sister-in-law Bernice (his late wife's identical twin). Duckman's wife, Beatrice, died before the show began. The tagline of the show, seen in the opening credits, is "Private Dick/Family Man" (Dick being short for Detective, as well as serving as a double entendre). The series takes place in Los Angeles, as indicated by the episode "Bev Takes A Holiday" when Beverly's detective tells her, "here is the address in LA", when referring to Duckman's address. Also, in the pilot episode "I, Duckman", there is a closeup of Duckman's California car license plate (which reads "PSSDOFF"), clearly indicating as well that at the very least the series is set in one of the state's major cities. In one episode, Bernice makes a reference to "the Southland," a local term used to describe Southern California.[/quote] [IMG]http://www.leelofland.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/duckman-with-family.jpg[/IMG] [i](left to right: Eric Duckman, Bernice, Ajax Duckman, Gecko Duckman, Charles and Mambo Duckman, 'Grand-Ma-Ma', Cornfed Willibald Feivel Pig) Missing Fluffy and Uranus :'([/i] [B]From [url=http://tv.ign.com/top-100-animated-tv-series/48.html]IGN TV[/url][/B] [quote]Based on the Dark Horse comic by Everett Peck, Duckman is a hilarious and completely bizarre show about a foul-mouthed duck who's a terrible private detective and an even worse person to be around. The only reason Duckman gets any detective work is due to his genius partner, Cornfed Pig, who talks like Joe Friday and has a plethora of hidden skills. [img]http://tvmedia.ign.com/tv/top100/imgs/screenshot_48.jpg[/img] Unabashedly an adult-oriented cartoon, Duckman aired during USA Network's "Up All Night" Saturday night programming block for four seasons. Voiced by Seinfeld's George Costanza, Jason Alexander, Duckman was a lazy, self-serving sex addict -- and we wouldn't have it any other way. Belting out catch phrases like "Hommina hommina how wah," "D'wah!" and "What the hell are you staring at?" Duckman, along with his dimwit son Ajax (voiced by Dweezil Zappa) and genius twin sons Charles and Mambo (who share a body), was a constant source of late night entertainment.[/quote] ------- I remember being 13-14 years old when they aired Duckman on USA Network... even though I didn't really get all the jokes, it was hilarious to watch!! This was, by far, one of the most underrated TV series of all time :/ Now I've been looking to purchase the DVDs -ahhh nostalgia :3:-, and for what I can find so far there isn't a box set containing [i]all[/i] the seasons; you can get only Seasons 1 & 2 ([url=http://www.amazon.com/Duckman-Seasons-One-Jason-Alexander/dp/B001AIQ15O/ref=pd_cp_d_1]Amazon Link[/url]) and 3 & 4 ([url=http://www.amazon.com/Duckman-Seasons-Three-Jason-Alexander/dp/B001FT4PDI/ref=pd_cp_d_3]Amazon Link[/url]) by separate...

Somebody? Anybody...? :'/

Oh fuck, buddy. I LOVED this show! One of my favourite episodes is when Duckman becomes a giant and eats Ajax's cereal prize whistle. "You*tweet*, you*tweet*, you*tweet*, it's*tweet* always*tweety* about*tweetwee* you!*tweet!*" Lol. Cornfed: "Wow, you have a floor?" Ajax: "Just got it!" (or is it ceiling?) Ooh yeah! Hahahaha. "What the hell are YOU starin' at!?" This brought me back, man.
