Duckman/YMMV

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • Crosses the Line Twice: Oh, much, much too many instances to count.
  • Cult Classic
  • Dude, Not Funny: Most of the Fluffy and Uranus abuse was pretty funny, but the one from "All About Elliott" was just disgusting. To describe for those who haven't seen it: Duckman eats Fluffy and Uranus and a couple days later, we see Fluffy and Uranus back in the office, shivering in terror and looking disheveled. Duckman actually digested and crapped them out. Yuck.
  • Ear Worm: The Theme Song[1], as they often are.
    • "We're Off on the Road to Dendron".
  • Funny Aneurysm Moment: Lampshaded in "Bev Takes a Holiday". Charles and Mambo ask Bernice how she plans to have enough energy to be a mom and a Congresswoman. Bernice replies that she'll take power naps in the bathroom like Strom Thurmond. Immediately, a disclaimer appears on the screen, stating that if Strom Thurmond has died if you're watching this, disregard that joke.
    • Doubly funny as this episode was rerun on Comedy Central the day after Strom Thurman died. Possibly done so deliberately.
    • Before he died, Jim Varney voiced Walt Evergreen, president of a tobacco company. ... in case you're curious, Varney died of lung cancer.
  • Jerkass Woobie: Duckman's behavior and antisocial attitude stems from the fact he still misses his wife, and that she was the only person who could keep him in line.
  • Tastes Like Diabetes: Fluffy and Uranus are deliberately this as to annoy Duckman.
  • They Just Didn't Care: In some scenes of episodes during the fourth season, Charles and Mambo's heads somehow switch places. Usually, Charles's head is on the left while Mambo's is on the right. But then, you'll occasionally hear Dana Hill's (or Pat Musick's) voice coming out of the right head. How did they screw that up when they never had trouble keeping this straight in the first three seasons?
    • To see if the audience was paying attention?
    • In "Days of Whining and Neurosis", Grandma-ma clearly wheels herself around in one brief scene. I thought she was comatose??
