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.
