History

Of the 13 episodes produced, only "The Return of Batduck" was original to the series. All remaining episodes were compilations of Tiny Toons produced shorts, though some aired on The Plucky Duck Show first.

The theme song is a rendition of the Tiny Toons theme, set to the same music, but with Plucky himself as the subject of the song. Some of the lyrics were reused in the Tiny Toons episode "It's a Wonderful Tiny Toons Christmas Special".

After the show was canceled, "Batduck" was edited and added in as an episode of Tiny Toons. The show's formula was attempted again several years later when Pinky and the Brain, the supporting characters from Animaniacs (Steven Spielberg's next collaboration with Warner Bros. Animation), were also given their own show. Unlike The Plucky Duck Show, however, Pinky and the Brain consists entirely of original material rather than reusing pre-existing shorts from the show it was spun-off from.

The "Yakety Yak" segment was made commercially available on the Tiny Toons Sing! CD/cassette album.
