Porky Pig

Porky Pig was a Warner Bros. cartoon character, created by Friz Freleng in 1935. He made his debut in a two-strip Technicolor Merrie Melodies cartoon, I Haven't Got a Hat.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He was the very first star of Warner Bros. cartoons, and the birth of the glorious future of Warner Bros. animation.
 * 2) This stuttering pig marked the birthplace for future Warner Bros. cartoon superstars, such as Taz, Foghorn Leghorn, Daffy Duck, and of course, Bugs Bunny.
 * 3) He is very sweet, kind, and caring.
 * 4) Mel Blanc did an excellent job voicing him.
 * 5) He had a bit of character development from a Butt-Monkey type character to an intelligent, snarky, and competent sidekick who always came out on top whenever paired with Daffy, especially in New Looney Tunes.
 * 6) His design is very cute.
 * 7) Unlike the other Looney Tunes stars, he is usually innocent and friendly.
 * 8) He ends almost every Looney Tunes cartoon/films with his catchphrase "Th-Th-Th-That's All Folks!," especially "[mh:greatestmovies:Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]" (1988) and mh:awfulmovies:Space Jam: A New Legacy. (2021)
 * 9) Like Bugs Bunny, he also had his own show "The Porky Pig Show" from 1964 until 1967, which unlike Bugs (whose his show originally appears to took place in a stage), Porky's own show took place in a barn, which is interesting.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) He can be a Butt-Monkey type character in many cartoons, especially when he gets abused in "Looney Tunes Cartoons" for no reason.
 * 2) He sometimes gets interrupted, such as when he tries to say "That's All Folks!" in The Looney Looney Looney Bugs Bunny Movie. (1981), [mh:greatestmovies:Gremlins 2: The New Batch]] (1990) [mh:greatestmovie:Looney Tunes: Back in Action]] (2003),

Trivia

 * He received his very first starring role in Tex Avery's black-and-white Looney Tunes cartoon, The Blow Out, released in 1936.
 * He is named after one of Friz Freleng's old friends.
