** [[DownplayedTrope Downplayed]] for Elmer in these shorts; While he's generally a decent guy, he has a HairTriggerTemper and can occasionally act like a spiteful jerk. Played straight in "Shoe Shine-Nanigans". Elmer deliberately refuses to pay, even after Daffy gave him the [[ShoeShineMister shoeshine]] he offered. Which makes it cathartic when he gets run over by a bus immediately after.

* AdaptationalNiceGuy: Daffy, who like in ''WesternAnimation/NewLooneyTunes'' is much closer to his original 1930s "screwball" persona than in other modern appearances, but is also notably kinder and more helpful than he's ever been portrayed before. While he's still a blustering pest with more than a hint of TheGadfly, surprisingly often he's portrayed as well-meaning and genuinely enthusiastic about helping people (and especially Porky) out without expecting anything in return. He's ''not'' good at it, [[UnwantedAssistance and more often than not his "help" makes everything worse]], but he tries.

** Firearms, such as Yosemite Sam's Six-Shooters and Elmer Fudd's shotgun, are excluded from this incarnation. Surprisingly, other weapons like scythes, axes, hooks and even various bombs/dynamite are fair game.
