Seemed almost designed to inspire cries of [[They Changed It, Now It Sucks]] from Disney purists, fans of the earlier ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]'', and fans of [[Carl Barks|the classic comics]], the inhabitants of Duckburg are now (save Donald, Daisy and the nephews) entirely human, the nephews speak with regular voices (as opposed the the slightly "quacky" voices of ''[[DuckTales (1987)]]''), the costumes have been redesigned to be [[Totally Radical]] ([[Half-Dressed Cartoon Animal|and to include pants]]), and Daisy and Donald now work as reporter and cameraman for a TV show entitled ''What in the World''. Save for the occasional visit by Ludwig Von Drake (and in one episode, [[Shout-Out|a cameo by Pluto]]), no other character of the Duck Universe appears. Some fans argue that the producers intentionally filled the world with humans in order to separate the show's universe from that of ''Ducktales'' and ''Darkwing Duck'', which did not share Quack Pack's over-the-top wacky tone. |

Lasted for a single season of 39 episodes, most of which weren't seen until the show was rebroadcast on [[Toon Disney]]. Apparently has fallen into [[Canon Discontinuity]], as depictions of Huey, Dewey and Louie have reverted to their classic form in future Disney productions (unlike the aging of [[Goof Troop|Max Goof]]). However, the teen depictions of the trio from this series ''did'' make a cameo in the short comic story "Whatever Happened to Uncle Scrooge?" |
