There may be those who may not like the humour, but for me this is one of the best animated shows ever. It is crude yes, so was Rocko's Modern Life, but it is extremely funny, clever and intelligent.The animation is very unique in style and just wonderful to watch. I just love the backgrounds and colours and the character designs are very interesting. The music is also excellent, and even better is the writing which is so brilliant and so sharp I can't stop laughing. The stories are also outstanding, as are the characters. Eric Duckman is a triumph of a title character, he isn't sophisticated but rude and ignorant yet has a wit and charm about him. Cornfred, Ajax and Mambo are also wonderful and even King Chicken(voiced by an unrecognisable Tim Curry) is a hoot. And the voice acting especially from Jason Alexander(who is funny rather than annoying, not him in person but he has done some annoying characters) is superb.In conclusion, one brilliant show. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This was a well made show, one of the better prime time animated sitcoms I have seen. The voices were superb, and most of the jokes and parodies on target. The characters also grew and changed, rare for an animated sitcom. At the core of it all was Duckman coming to terms with his wife's death. The whole sequence of the crass, extremely horny and manic detective dealing with a loss of someone he obviously loved a lot was much more believable then you'd expect.

Oh...My...GOD!!! Is it humanly possible to make a television series greater than Duckman? The answer is simple: No, it is not. Why is this show so great? Well, let's see, the writing, the characters, the storylines, the social commentary, the animation... The list could go on and on. This show has been canceled for quite some time (since 1997) but re-runs currently show on Comedy central at some ungodly hour of the night/morning. It doesn't promise to stay there for very long, though. If you want to see this series, start recording it whenever you get the chance. I am currently lucky enough to have almost the entire series on tape. Be sure to pay special atention to the following episodes, which are the best DM has to offer:America the Beautiful- One of the most biting social commentaries ever shown on TV! It also has a VERY catchy song at the end of the show...The Once and Future Duck: The most popular DM episode.Pig Amok: Hilarity in it's purest form.Noir Gang: My fav episode.About Face: Some interesting bits of drama and character development.Role With it: Some more interesting bits of drama and character development.Bev Takes a Holiday: another fav of mine.LOVE! ANGER! KVETCHING!: See for Joe Walsh's special version of "Life's been Good" sung towards the end.Four Weddings Inconceivable: The final episode.I,Duckman: The first episode.Gripes of Wrath: A classic!Psyche: A rather subtle landmark episode that also happens to be excruciantingly funny.Joking the Chicken: See for Duckman's brilliant speech at the end.It's a Thing of the Principal: Funny!Cock Tales for Four: Why didn't this get an emmy!?The Girls of Route Canal: Hilarious spoof of "The Bridges of Madison County."Research and Destroy: Great spoof on the film Brazil and office/corporate life in general.Papa Oom M.O.W. M.O.W.: Funny!Hamlet 2: Hilarious spoof on Hamlet.Exile in Guyville: Funny!Not so Easy Riders: Funny!Clip Job: Easily the best clip show ever produced! Very self-aware.The Amazing Collosal Duckman: Funny!From Brad to Worse: Funny!Bonfire of the Panties: Funny!A Room with a Bellevue: Another popular episode.

How could this show have been cancelled? It was one of the funniest and most clever shows on cable. This was a great show and deserved a longer time on the air. The series was as funny as The Simpsons and as gross as South Park (that's not a bad thing). I'm so glad Comedy Central has started to air the old episodes.
