Even though it carries a 1949 copyright, "The Ducksters", starring Daffy Duck & Porky Pig, was released in September 1950. This print, however, is a Blue Ribbon reissue. Chuck Jones satirizes radio game shows, particularly Truth or Consequences, and the title is a riff on a Clark Gable movie, "The Hucksters", released 3 years earlier.
Silly, but it was also one of the earliest examples of how depraved Daffy could be.
Rating: A-.
