"Porky's Duck Hunt" is a [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfAnimation 1937]] WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes short directed by [[Creator/TexAvery Fred Avery]]. It is a landmark short in the series, being one of the first truly {{zany cartoon}}s and thus codifying what distinguished a Creator/WarnerBros cartoon from anyone else's cartoons. This was also the first time Creator/MelBlanc performed the voice of Porky[[note]]He had previously been voiced by Joe Dougherty, who actually had a stutter, but it had gotten to a point where he couldn't control his stutter. As a result, recording sessions would last for hours.[[/note]] and the debut appearance of then-unnamed WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck.

* IJustShotMarvinInTheFace: Porky, while showing off his hunting gear, points his shotgun at his dog, then say "It's not loaded. W-w-w-watch" and points it at the ceiling and pulls the trigger. It fires and the neighbour upstairs comes down and punches Porky in the face, and walks away, revealing a hole in his pants. Happens again after Porky comes home after his unsuccessful hunt and disgustedly throws his gun on the floor, causing it to shoot the ceiling again. The neighbour comes down again and punches Porky, then leaves, revealing two holes in his pants.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Daffy doesn't have his trademark lisp here. (However, if you listen carefully Daffy ''does'' slightly lisp the "it's" in "It's me again!" when he visits Porky again, so it's likely that Daffy was planned to have the lisp from the start, but the extent of how much he would lisp wasn't settled yet.) Also, Porky is a lot more clumsy and oafish than he would be in later cartoons.

* CreditsGag: The ending title card has Daffy make one last appearance, bouncing and looping around the letters. This was because Creator/BobClampett (who was animating for Tex at the time) had some leftover animation he wanted to put in but couldn't within the actual cartoon, so Tex allowed him to put it in the credits.

* PorkyPigPronunciation: With Mel Blanc now voicing Porky, they were able to use this trope for the first time. Near the end, Porky realizes he is "all outta bul-b-b-b-bull-b-b-b-b-all outta shells!"

** {{Bowdlerization}}: Sadly, most hand-drawn colorized versions (the really bad Korean prints that used to air in syndication and on Nickelodeon back when they had "Looney Tunes on Nick") replace the credits gag with the ending card to the stylized late 1960s Warner Bros. shorts. The original credits gag can be found on the computer-colorized versions shown on Cartoon Network and Boomerang or the original black and white version available on DVD.
