That_One_Guy Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Ok I saw this when I was very young (around 7) so please bear with me as my memory might be sketchy. Anyway when I was a kid I saw a very strange very morbid cartoon. It was about this small duck. He goes to a pawn shop and tells the owner to give him whiskey. The owner obliges and the duck drinks all the whisky which gets him drunk. Then he goes back to the pawn shop and buys a gun. He then shoots himself in the head. But it wasnt gory. It was very cartoonist. Think Daffy duck getting his beak shot off. Even as a young child I knew this was very dark for being on cartoon network which I'm pretty sure I saw it on. The short played with no information as to what it was. When it was over it was over and I never saw it again. I used to watch cartoons at my grandma's house in the afternoon. I would usually watch Reboot on toonami. I'm pretty sure that's when the short played. I've looked for it several times throughout my life and have never been able to find it. There's no fucking way I imagined it. It was such a weird and random thing and I remember it do vividly even though it happened 20 years ago. If any of you know anything or want to try to find it be my guest. I think it'd be interesting just to know more about it and why the fuck it played during daylight hours on a kids network. Sidenote: it might have been a psa type commercial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mortir Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 It was probably one of those things that was on the What A Cartoon or the Cartoon Cartoon Show maybe this will help jog your memery. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What_a_Cartoon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HardcoreHunter Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 I checked the what a cartoon episodes with ducks and none had guns. Also checked o' canada and no luck, but that would have aired well after reboot was on. I'm thinking it must have been in the Acme Hour and it would have either been daffy, or the drunk stork. I couldn't find an episode though where the drunk stork had a gun. Though I do seem to remember a cut away gag where he did shoot himself because he didn't want to carry a really heavy baby. Though the drunk stork is the main character I can remember being in bars. I don't remember any of Daffy going to a pawn shop and buying a gun though. He usually just pulls a gun out of hammerspace and shoots himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was so surreal to stay up late and then they have this variety show with some really weird and different animations than you are ever used to seeing. I also loved the Japanimation block or whatever it was called back when SyFy was still Sci Fi. Good times.

Also that you remembered drinky crow as a duck. Cool that it got found though.

I remember watching it but it was lost media for a short time. Everyone remembered it as a turkey eating kids, which is what made it harder to find, because everyone kept looking at this one old nick show called Turkey Television that has an ass ton of episodes. Turned out it was a vulture not a turkey and was just some short that some kids made and sent in to nick. Attack of the Giant Vulture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
