Watching Looney Tunes on HBO Max, and never realized just how fun his Porky and Daffies can be. Any shorts of his that you’re a fan of in particular?

OH GEEZ not sure who exactly you’re referring to here so i hope you don’t mind me being very general :’) I REALLY DO LIKE 99% OF PORKY AND DAFFY SHORTS i’m super biased but there’s like… only two or three i can think of that i DON’T like and it’s either because it’s racist or has made-in-the-mid-60s disease

SOME OF MY FAVORITES THOUGH… i’m particularly fond of Baby Bottleneck, Porky Pig’s Feat, Daffy Doodles, My Favorite Duck, Tom Turk and Daffy, You Ought to Be in Pictures, Yankee Doodle Daffy, Porky’s Last Stand, Daffy Duck Slept Here, Riff Raffy Daffy, Boobs in the Woods, Duck Soup to Nuts, Fool Coverage… IT REALLY IS HARD TO NARROW THEM DOWN. i feel they’re so versatile and every director has such a unique spin on the dynamic and there are so many WAYS in which the dynamic can be spun but is still anchored, and that versatility is WHY i like their cartoons so much.

guess it really depends on what sort of dynamic YOU prefer for them! Bob McKimson has quite a fun repertoire of more antagonistic cartoons towards each other, Chuck Jones’ dynamic duo interpretation of the ‘50s is nice, Friz Freleng strikes a great balance with his antagonistic/befuddled Porky and heckler/sophisticate Daffy… Bob Clampett’s Baby Bottleneck is my personal favorite team-up of the two because i think it strikes a really effective balance between the dynamic duo partnership and antagonistic heckling. likewise, Porky Pig’s Feat i think is one of the best cartoons put out by the studio and is easily one of Porky and Daffy’s best as a whole

their relationship as a whole has so many nuances and different interpretations that it’s hard to pin down as just “this director directs them THIS way and this way only”, but there are very few Porky and Daffy shorts that i’d tell people NOT to watch
