** The stories of the series "Quando Paperinik Mangia Pesante" ("When Paperinik Eats Too Much") have our hero [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin eat too much]] and then have a [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs completely absurd]] AcidRefluxNightmare. Ridiculousness defies description.

Added DiffLines:

* At the end of "Out On A Limb", as Donald tries to mow Chip and Dale, they end pulling the leaf curtains, leading him to mow on an electric cable, where he stops at a sign saying "High Voltage". Donald then turns to the camera with an epic OhCrapSmile and a nervous laugh. Cue the electricity going up, resulting in a huge explosion, leaving a charred Donald with a dazed smile and a charred-up mower which turns to charcoal dust as he falls into a leaf patch.

* "Modern Inventions" gives us the amusing RunningGag of the robot butler constantly taking Donald's hats, and the climatic HumiliationConga where Donald winds up in the hands of an automated barber, who trims his tail and puts a bowler hat on it, while shoe-shining his face! And once that's over, the robot yet again takes his hat, sending Donald off the edge.

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HfuwNU0jsk0 Right Wing Radio Duck]]. AKA DonaldDuck meets Radio/GlennBeck. Brilliant editing of several WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts along with the right cues from Don and Glenn result in a political cartoon that plays out wonderfully. Don't miss this one!

* In "Trail of the Unicorn", Donald's [[WrongGenreSavvy Wrong Genre Savvy]] attitude towards the Unicorn they're searching for. When they find the creature's remote Himalayan refuge, Donald believes that unicorns are probably very shy, delicate creatures, and coaxing it out will be difficult - only for the unicorn to ''charge out of a nearby cave at top speed, try and impale everyone in a frenzied attack, split a boulder in two with its initial charge, and nearly kill everyone'' until Huey gets lucky and offers it [[PickyEater a bite of moss on a rock]]. Arguably doubles as [[NightmareFuel Nightmare Fuel.]]

screwy Squirrel is being merged into The Prankster per TRS.


* Sure, "WesternAnimation/TheBandConcert" may be billed as a Mickey Mouse cartoon, but the Duck steals the show as far as comedy is concerned, playing a moderated ScrewySquirrel whose [[RunningGag never-ending supply of fifes]] drives Mickey crazy!

Added DiffLines:

** The episode ends with a major crash (courtesy of the radio changing to a broadcast of a race). After the dust settles...

Added another funny scene.

Added DiffLines:

** Shortly after Hortense swallows the radio, Donald comes out with a cache of weapons to scare her with, and we get this:
-->'''Radio:''' Drop that, you rat! Reach for the ceiling!
-->''(Donald drops all of the weapons and reaches for the ceiling)''
-->''(Hortense hiccups, and the radio changes to a band playing. Donald, looking confused, grabs Hortense's beak and opens it, increasing the volume of the band, and then closes it. Donald then opens Hortense's beak again, as Hortense hiccups and changes the station again.)''
-->'''Radio:''' Shut that door, you sap!
-->''(Donald jumps backwards about a foot.)''
