*** Could qualify as a FunnyAneurysmMoment as of the 2017 revival, 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.]]
*** 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 come Season 5, 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]].

** Dodgers' crossover with Franchise/GreenLantern has a short appearance of a [[Franchise/MortalKombat Raiden]]-like figure among the Green Lantern Corps. Fast-foward to 2008 and we have ''VideoGame/MortalKombatVsDCUniverse''.
** Another episode, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Mkau7gd3BA Menace of Maninsuit]]", which parodied Franchise/{{Godzilla}} and few popular [[TheSeventies '70s]] {{Anime}} has Dodgers and Cadet piloting [[HumongousMecha giant robots]], clearly modeled after ''Anime/MazingerZ'' and ''Anime/GreatMazinger'', that could turn into a giant gun and a giant fist. And then we got ''Anime/ShinMazinger'', in which Mazinger actually turns into a giant fist.
** And now we have another bit of "The Green Loontern" to make us chuckle retroactively, as Dodgers tells Sinestro to "forget the pony" he'd been requesting. Then you remember who was voicing [[Creator/JohnDeLancie Sinestro]] and [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic what role he would later get many accolades for]] (not [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Q]]). To say nothing of Sinestro going up against a purple-skinned character voiced by a Creator/TaraStrong.

* 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. (Or possibly RuleOfCool.)
* CrossesTheLineTwice: When Daffy tells Roboto he's "done something terrible, Roboto replies, without a hint of irony, that he'll help Daffy "burry the body."

--> '''Space Cadet:''' [[BreakingTheFourthWall Don't worry, kids.]] I have no idea who that is either.

** That's actually the Music/FlamingLips performing, with Tom Jones doing the vocals.

* EvilIsSexy: The Martian Queen got a lot of attention because of how curvaceous she was and always wearing revealing clothes.

* 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, Daffy's character development was undone, and the last episode was basically a faux-documentary with various characters being interviewed about their feelings about Duck Dodgers rather than a proper GrandFinale.

* FanonDiscontinuity: To most people, season 3 never existed.

* MyRealDaddy : Although Spike Brandt and Tony Cervone are the creators, many people think Paul Dini and Tom Minton are the true creative force, and their absence in season 3 made the decline in quality noticeable.

Expy: Happy Cat (Duck Dodger's alarm clock that he smashes OncePerEpisode as a RunningGag) is one of [[WesternAnimation/SamuraiJack Aku]]. He even takes the role of Aku in the parody Episode Samurai Quack.

** Another example from "The Green Loontern": one of the captured Green Lantern Corps members strongly resembles Raiden from the ''VideoGame/MortalKombat'' series. Not only would Creator/WarnerBros later buy the franchise, but Raiden himself would appear as a guest character in ''Injustice 2'', a DC fighting game.

** 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.

* BrokenBase: While most people agree season 3 is the weakest season, there's the debate on if it went through SeasonalRot or is just not as good as the first two. Detractors point out that it's the first Looney Tunes project to have actual character development, and season 3 undoing that is a disservice. Defenders point out that, like the classic shorts, the Looney Tunes are not the best with long term character development, being more suited to simple plots, character archetypes, and lampooning pop culture.

* CultClassic: Especially by WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes purists.

* 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 Creator/PaulDini onboard certainly helped.

* 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.'' Then again, this IS ElmerFudd we're talking about.

* DesignatedVillain: Melvin. The episode where he appeared suggested people should hate him for opening a rival restaurant next to I.M. Neighborly's and take Neighborly's customers away by offering them free sodas and also suggested it was okay for Dodgers and Neighborly for sabotaging Melvin's in a way that, in real life, would get them arrested for not only damaging private property but also endangering the lives of everyone inside.
