The
next big change in Daffy came when Chuck Jones
teamed him with Bugs Bunny. Daffy Duck went
from a neurotic duck to a thinking duck. His
personality is now cunning, conniving, greedy
and somewhat aggressive in any of his endeavors.
This played well off of Bug's cool, thinking
demeanor, and made a conflict that still lives
on today. Even with all of his hard planning,
Daffy never seemed to come out on top.
His
selfish attitude of "Mine", in connection
with his hunger for wealth, were always the
downfall of any well-laid plan. What made
this a good combination with their audience
was the fact that they could relate to both
characters. If you look at yourself and the
people you know, it's hard not to see a little
Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck in all of us.
