This new retrospective / review is written, edited and voiced by Tim Partridge. Tim has appeared on my YouTube channel a number of times over the years taking part in audio commentaries and he directed my Superman IV documentary 'The Man of Steel and Glass'. Tim really wanted to produce a video to celebrate the 30th anniversary of Darkwing Duck and has put a lot of time and effort into this video. I hope you all enjoy it!

Oh, how much I did love this show! Just looking at the cartoons shown in the first 10 minutes, I´d say today 95% of all shows can´t hold a candle to the 80s and 90s.

The voices on the show were just SO, SO good!

Darkwing Duck was my favorite cartoon show as a kid. It only ran on Swedish television briefly before getting banned for it's cartoon violence, but I still kept old taped episodes on VHS that I would rewatch obsessively, in particular the episodes Stressed To Kill, Water Way To Go, In Like Blunt, Duck Blind, Night of the Living Spud and Time And Punishment. It was astounding how much the show kept getting funnier the older I got and came back to revisit it. It's influenced my own creative work immensely and I'm still amazed to this day by how many genres and tones the series managed to jump across. "Relentless and manic energy" with loads of heart sums it up perfectly.

The fact two of my favourite franchises, TMNT and Darkwing Duck, were connected makes me so happy

What a welcome addition for a retrospective

Wasn’t expecting to tear up watching a documentary about Darkwing Duck today but here we are.

The bittersweet era of Disney cartoons, where no matter how good the show was you knew it would end at 65 episodes.🥲

Launchpad really greased the wheels for this show for me, as I was a Duck Tales addict, and I had never seen a shared universe like this before.  
Long, LONG before we'd see anything like it again.

I remember the show very fondly. Like most superior shows, I was more interested in the villains than the hero. The episodes involving Darkwing Duck going into the Nega- verse and the time gosalyn travel into the future to meet Warrior Duck were some of my favorite episodes.

Tad Stones is the reason Disney Television Animation as one of the biggest name for animation for televisions.

Disney was cranking out some real bangers back in the 90s.

This Tim Partridge is a very good fit for the channel. He even sounds a bit like Oliver Harper.

That theme song...man, it's incredibly catchy.

"I am the terror the flaps in the night. I am the bubblegum that sticks to your hair. I am... Darkwing Duck!", I loved this cartoon as a kid. "Suck gas evildoer!", is a catchphrase I still remember. So much fun.

I think my favourite little fact about this show is that Jim Cunnings would often ad-lib the middle part of Darkwing's intro speech, to the point where one script had a few options plus a line that said "Or whatever Jim comes up with".

This theme song is still popping into my head and I haven’t seen the show in 25 years.

As someone who was a fan of Darkwing Duck in the Disney Afternoon era in its prime (my mom made me a cape!) AND as a current resident of Edmonton, the note at the end gave me an unexpected jumpscare ❤

I loved Darkwing when growing up. My condolences on your loss. Thank you for this great retrospective!

18:21 Spider-Man villain Hydroman is probably closer :)
