History YMMV / DuckDodgers

* SeasonalRot: The third season was made even though the show was originally intended to end after season two. As a result, the status quo was abruptly restored in the season three premiere by having the Martian Queen call off her marriage to Commander X2 due to still having feelings for Dodgers and revoking Mars' peace treaty with Earth when Dodgers continues to reject her advances. To make things more aggravating, the last episode was basically a faux-documentary with various characters being interviewed about their feelings about Duck Dodgers rather than a proper GrandFinale.

--> '''Duck Dodgers''': You're lucky I didn't cut you into ribbons.

*** And it doesn't end there. During the fight between Dodgers and Achoo, Achoo says the line: "Become my apprentice, samurai!...It is your destiny! Join me [[WeCanRuleTogether and we will rule the galaxy as father and son!]]". It may have been a hilarious reference to the iconic LukeIAmYourFather scene of ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack'', but it ends up almost accurately describing the crucial plot twist of the penultimate episode: [[spoiler:hint: to make it accurate, the subject is not the titular samurai, and change "son" to its opposite gender]].

** Becomes HarsherinHindsight/FunnyAneurysm as of the 2017 SamuraiJack [[WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack2017 reboot]], where [[spoiler:Jack does slay a human for the first time thinking she was another one of Aku's robots, earning it a TV-14-V rating.]]

** In "Samurai Quack" (a parody of [[WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack Samurai Jack]]), Duck Dodgers starts attacking random robots with his sword, slicing and dicing them with his sword. Then he sees a human who yells out that he isn't a robot. Dodgers abruptly stops and says this line.

*** Even funnier that the particular human was voiced by Creator/GenndyTartakovsky.

* CriticalResearchFailure: The Green Lantern crossover uses Green Lantern Corps. members that would've been active in the 20th/21st centuries...even though the episode is still meant to take place in the '''24 1/2''' century. Either the ''entire'' Corps. was stuck in a time warp, or WritersCannotDoMath.
* CultClassic: Is considered by many purist WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes fans as one of the ''only'' good post-Termite Terrace uses of the characters and a sadly unrecognized example of exactly ''how'' to modernize them. Having PaulDini onboard certainly helped.

* TearJerker: The ending to "The Love of a Father."

* EvilIsSexy: The Martian Queen.
* FoeYay

* {{Squick}}: Long John Silver and Dodgers eating space parasites as part of a contest. The parasites are spiky, slimy, acidic and are swallowed ''alive''.

* HilariousInHindsight: There are plenty of jokes that became a lot funnier few years later.

--> '''Space Cadet:''' [[BreakingTheFourthWall D-don't w-w-worry, kids.]] I h-have no i-idea wh-who that is either.

* WhatAnIdiot: In the episode "[[Franchise/{{Halo}} The Fudd]]", the Fudd brainwashes pretty much everybody outside of Dodgers, Cadet, and Marvin, all for his master plan of ''the invasion of the SUN.''

** Not to mention the [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYcg6LWad4c episode]] "In Space, No One Can Hear You Rock", guest-starring freaking '''Music/{{Megadeth}}'''. Not only that, they gave Dave a '''laser guitar'''. Dodgers practically speaks for the viewers throughout the final few minutes.
