Brilliant and touching

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

. . . about upcoming Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti, with a special emphasis on the U.S. Presidential Election of 2016. MY LITTLE DUCKAROO is just one in a string of such cautionary tales covering the first campaign in which the majority of Americans hate BOTH major party nominees. Named for the Trumpeter Swan in Real Life, Rich People Party Pol Don J. Trump is captured here to a "T" by that Mercenary Solipcistic Braggart, Daffy Duck. Playing Crooked Hillary is card cheat Nasty Canasta, who trumps Trump's "Royal Straight Flush Full House with Four Aces High" by waving a Three of Clubs and a revolver in the Vince Foster position. As Porky Pig paraphrases the Trumpster Throngs' chants of "Lock her up, Lock her up!" Nasty unveils Hillary's October Surprise Deus Ex Machina by GOING TOPLESS at the 6:10 mark of this animated short. Just as Julie "Singing Nun Mary Poppins" Andrews precipitated more than one thousand fatal Baby Boomer heart attacks by baring her breasts in a later flick called S.O.B., Nasty is telegraphing us that Hillary will try to squeak past Trump by seriously (if not permanently) incapacitating the Dittohead Hordes through a Third Debate Wardrobe Malfunction fully exposing whatever Kazongers she might be harboring.

As a sequel of sorts to "Drip-Along Daffy" (1951), "My Little Duckaroo" features the blundering, incompetent Daffy Duck as the Masked Avenger and Porky Pig as his comedy relief sidekick. Their target is the burly outlaw Nasty Canasta, for whom there is a $10,000 reward. Sure, Daffy can fix his wagon! My favorite scenes: Being a music lover, I almost always enjoy hearing the Looney Tunes characters burst into song, even if off-key, as Porky sings and plays guitar during the opening credits of this cartoon short. Daffy accidentally shoots the top of his head, with a nice honking horn sound effect as his ten-gallon hat plops back onto his now bald head. During a trumpet fanfare, Daffy shouts, "This looks like a job for....", when suddenly his cape covers his head and the fanfare stops; his horse then burps during Daffy's enthusiastic introduction of himself. And check out Daffy's Mexican bandito getup.If you can overlook the absolutely weak ending, you may agree that "My Little Duckaroo" is a fine comedy Western cartoon. Most of the time, the loudly arrogant Daffy tries to prove his worth to Nasty Canasta, who in return offers Daffy not the least vestige of recognition!

I didn't know the date of the episode before I watched it and while I watched I presumed it was a 1960's Looney Tunes cartoon, almost definitely made by I Freleng and like many of his cartoons a whole bag of references to earlier classic episodes. When I saw this was a cartoon made in 1954 and it was made by Chuck Jones, I was very surprised.Still, this is an episode all right to watch, if exceedingly similar to "Drip Along Daffy." Like in "Drip Along Daffy," Daffy Duck is a western-hero and Porky alongside him is a "Comedy Relief." There are some fun songs at the beginning, which is relatively common in Looney Tunes, but still excitingly lovely all the same. Daffy Duck is the Masked "Evenger" (that's how he pronounces "Avenger," anyway) and he sees a wanted poster for a major criminal. The Masked Avenger gallops to the criminal's house and attempts to arrest the desparado....The episode may be predictable and cliché, but for Daffy Duck fans it is still overall worth at least one watch, as the personalities of Daffy Duck and Porky Pig are very entertaining.Recommended to people who like Porky Pig and Daffy Duck, enjoy "My Little Duckaroo"! :-)

This is an excellent example of the full development of Chuck Jones' Daffy character, Daffy's later greedy & self centred character is a much better vehicle for delivering the more sophisticated humour in this cartoon than the original manic, slapstick character created by Tex Avery in 1937.This cartoon is an extension of an earlier classic - Drip-along Daffy, in which Daffy attempts to bring the notorious outlaw Nasty Canasta to justice, when various attempts by the Cisco Kid (aka Daffy), Super Duck (also Daffy) and the Masked Avenger fail to budge Nasty Canasta, Daffy resorts to using physical means, stating he is going to give Nasty Canasta a "fist beating, frontier style" and to "fix his little red wagon" the expression on the face of the scrawny Daffy as Nasty Cansata rips his shirt by flexing his enormous muscles is priceless.From the classic attempt By Daffy to emulate Nasty Canasta by rolling a cigarette in his mouth (which of course fails dismally and explodes) to the classic "Cisco Kid" poker and arrest/bare knuckle fight scenes this is one big laugh for those who enjoy the 50's Daffy.
