16''Queer Duck'' is an animated web series created by Mike Reiss, one of the "golden age" writers for ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons'' and co-creator of ''WesternAnimation/TheCritic''. It was produced by Creator/IceboxEntertainment, originally airing on their website before getting picked up by Showtime. Xeth Feinberg directed each episode. The series was a follow up to the duo's previous web show, ''WebAnimation/HardDrinkinLincoln''.
17
18The title character, Adam Seymour Duckstein (voiced by Creator/JimJBullock), is an [[CampGay out-loud-and-proud]] water fowl working as a male nurse who regularly deals with the mishaps that come with living as an openly gay man. Along for the ride are his close-knit circle of gay friends Bi-Polar Bear (Creator/BillyWest), Oscar Wildcat (Creator/MauriceLaMarche) and his boyfriend Openly Gator (Creator/KevinMichaelRichardson). As this is an internet-based series about homosexuality created in the early 2000s by a hetereosexual man, expect some of its content to be a tad... on the regressive side.
19----
20!!''Queer Duck'' contains examples of:
21* AbusiveParents: While they don't physically abuse him, Queer Duck's parents frequently insult him to his face and aren't very supportive of his sexuality.
22* AllGaysArePromiscuous: The stereotype of gay men wanting to sleep with everyone who's male is PlayedForLaughs from time to time, such as when Queer Duck berates another man for "only" sleeping with seven other men in his lifetime in "Oh Christ!" Another good example is how "Wedding Bell Blues" has Queer Duck marry Openly Gator and give a long list of circumstances where he might cheat on Openly Gator with another man when it's time to exchange vows.
23* AllGaysLoveTheater: In "Oh Christ," Queer Duck is forced to sing hymns with a church group, but gets annoyed with the lackluster singing from the other men. He asks if any of them have any musical theater training and all of their hands go up.
24* AnalProbing: In "Tales of the City Morgue", Bi-Polar Bear gets abducted by aliens and asks them to probe him.
25* BedmateReveal:
26** The second episode starts with Queer Duck and Openly Gator waking up to find a hippo in their bed after a crazy drunken evening.
27** In the last episode, Queer Duck wakes up to discover that he's slept with a woman who he momentarily mistook for a drag queen.
28* BlackComedy:
29** Oscar Wildcat tells Queer Duck that coming out would kill his mother. After a sip of his martini, he decides to do it that night.
30** Queer Duck's mother sticking her head in the oven after he comes out, resulting in her turning into a roasted duck.
31-->'''Queer Duck''': Well, all I can say is... ''well done!''\
32(''Jumps around WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck-style, then stops and holds up his fist'')\
33'''Queer Duck''': (solemnly) Gay pride.
34** In episode 2, Queer Duck gets an especially hard noogie from his older (straight) brother and starts gasping "Can't breathe! [[BuryYourGays Seeing dead friends]]! Music/FreddieMercury!"
35** In "Queer As Foul," the main characters attend the funeral of one HIV Possum.
36-->'''Openly Gator''': Why him? Oh God, why him?!\
37'''Queer Duck''': [[RhetoricalQuestionBlunder Oh, I don't know, because he was a condom-hating intravenous drug user with a Haitian boyfriend]].
38* BlackComedyRape[=/=]DoubleStandardRapeMaleOnMale: ''Bi Polar Bear and the Glorious Hole'' ends with Bi-Polar Bear, whose [[ItMakesSenseInContext rear is sticking out of a hole in the ground]], getting anally penetrated by Queer Duck, Openly Gator, and, eventually, every gay man in town. [[NotIfTheyEnjoyedItRationalization He's absolutely delighted by this]].
39-->'''Bi-Polar Bear''': All in all, this is a pretty typical weekend for me.
40* ButchLesbian: Queer Duck's sister Melissa, though his parents try to force themselves into denial about it.
41* CampGay: Most of the characters are gay men who act effeminate and artsy, but especially Queer Duck himself.
42* CaptainOblivious: Queer Duck's brother Lucky is apparently unaware of his younger brother's homosexuality.
43* CastFullOfGay: Most of the characters are LGBTQ, including the main characters.
44* {{Catchphrase}}: Queer Duck's "Oh my Gay stars!"
45* ChristmasEpisode:
46** "Homo for the Holidays", where Queer Duck and Openly Gator visit Queer Duck's family for the holidays.
47** "Santa Claus is Coming Out", where Queer Duck speculates that Santa Claus is gay. Santa eventually reveals that he's actually bi.
48* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Queer Duck's straight older brother Lucky and his nephew Little Lucky were phased out of the series in later episodes, to the point that the flashback of Queer Duck's birth in "Quack Doctor" inferred that Queer Duck was the Ducksteins' only son and Openly Gator's remark on meeting Queer Duck's sister Melissa in "Homo for the Holidays" indicates that Queer Duck has no other siblings.
49* ComingOutStory: The first episode is about Queer Duck celebrating National Coming Out Day by bringing Openly Gator over to his parents' house for dinner and telling them that he's gay.
50* CompanyCrossReferences: In "B.S. I Love You", one of the people in the line Queer Duck and his friends are waiting in is Abraham Lincoln as depicted in ''Hard Drinkin' Lincoln'', another animated series Mike Reiss created for Icebox.com.
51* CookedToDeath: When the titular character reveals to his parents that he's gay at a dinner party, his mother excuses herself and heads to the kitchen, presumably to cry. Moments later, everyone smells roast duck in the air. Mother is found with her head in the running oven, cooked to death.
52* CureYourGays: "Oh Christ!" has Queer Duck's parents send him a baptist preacher who kidnaps him and takes him to conversion therapy at a local church. Luckily, Queer Duck is too smart for him.
53* DeadpanSnarker: Oscar Wildcat often makes snide remarks, considering his inspiration. Though Queer Duck has his moments: when his nephew Little Lucky says that his father used to beat up Queer Duck a lot as a kid, Queer Duck responds "Yes, he made me what I am today."
54* EducationalSong: Queer Duck sings one (to the tune of [[Theatre/TheSoundOfMusic "Doe, A Deer"]]) in "A Gay Outing" when his nephew and his two friends go through his copy of ''Out'' and ask what certain things mean, such as GBM, S&M, and bicurious. Of course, he doesn't teach them the ''actual'' meanings and instead teaches them {{bowdlerize}}d definitions.
55-->"''GBM, a great big moose\
56S&M, the sun and moon\
57B&D is big and dumb\
58Bi means 'Buy me a balloon'''"
59* EveryoneHasStandards: In "Tales of the City Morgue", Oscar Wildcat is horrified by what a huge gay stereotype his FrankensteinsMonster is.
60-->'''Oscar Wildcat's monster''': (''singing'') Hello, Frisco, hello!\
61'''Oscar Wildcat''': Dear God! Is it possible to be ''too'' gay?!
62* EyeScream: When hunting Queer Duck in a bathroom at a gay bar, Dr. Laura looks through a glory hole in one of the stalls and... well, you do the math.
63* FrankensteinsMonster: Oscar Wildcat's story in "Tales of the City Morgue" has him create a Frankenstein monster using the body parts of various deceased gay celebrities, then express horror at his monster being a gigantic gay stereotype.
64* TheFunInFuneral: "Queer As Fowl" ends with Queer Duck turning the funeral for his deceased friend into a disco, thinking that it's what he would have wanted (though he does step out at the end to look sadly at a photo of him and the friend and say that he'll miss him).
65* FurryReminder: In the episode where the gang go to the Oscars, Creator/JoanRivers tells them "No animals allowed!" It's the only time in the series the characters are acknowledged as animals.
66* {{Gayngst}}: The characters sometimes angst over the downsides of being gay.
67* HalfDressedCartoonAnimal: Queer Duck and most of the male characters don't wear pants.
68* HaveIMentionedIAmGay: About 50% of the jokes in this show are about characters stating they are gay as if no one knew already. The most notable example is in "Tales of the City Morgue", when the aliens that abduct Bi-Polar Bear offend him by informing him of their plan to use him to impregnate a lot of Earth women and one of the aliens incorrectly assuming that a curvaceous woman would be a more appealing form to assume.
69* HellOfAHeaven: Jerry Falwell and Queer Duck both die and go to heaven at the end of "Ku Klux Klan & Ollie". Queer Duck finds heaven enjoyable due to Socrates, Leonardo da Vinci and other famous gay men being there, but Jerry Falwell hates it in heaven for the same reasons.
70* HeteronormativeCrusader: Most of the villains of this show are homophobes, with RealLife radio show host and known gay-basher Dr. Laura Schlessinger being a recurring antagonist.
71* IWantGrandkids: Queer Duck's father straight up says in the first episode that he wants grandchildren. It's unknown what he thinks of his grandson Little Lucky from his other son Lucky.
72* TheKlan: Queer Duck is targeted by the Ku Klux Klan under the leadership of Jerry Falwell in "Ku Klux Klan & Ollie".
73* MathematiciansAnswer: When asked who he "had to blow" to get good seats at the Oscars, Queer Duck bluntly replies "Rupert Everett."
74* MistakenForGay: Humorously inverted. In "Mardi Foie Gras," Queer Duck gets drunk out of his mind and wakes up next to what he thinks is a very convincing drag queen. He's shocked to find out that it's actually a woman (though he's still egotistical enough to ask how he was).
75* MockyMouse: The episode "The Gayest Place on Earth" takes place at a gay-friendly theme park called Fairyland, where Queer Duck hits on Gobble the Salty Seaman, a turkey in a sailor suit spoofing WesternAnimation/DonaldDuck. This earns the ire of Gobble's jealous lover, who is blatantly based on WesternAnimation/MickeyMouse.
76* NegativeContinuity: The series isn't known for having a consistent continuity. The episodes "B.S. I Love You" and "Ku Klux Klan & Ollie" even end with Queer Duck respectively serving a 75-year prison sentence as well as getting shot and going to Heaven.
77* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Aside from [[Creator/OscarWilde Oscar Wildcat]], Bi-Polar Bear's voice is a rather obvious imitation of Paul Lynde[[note]]"Quack Doctor" even has a gag about Lynde's regular stint on ''Hollywood Squares''.[[/note]] and Openly Gator's is a less-obvious imitation of Creator/HarveyFierstein. "Queer as Foul" also features a character named Truman Coyote.
78* NonMammalianHair: Openly Gator has a jewfro in spite of being a reptile.
79* ParallelPornTitles: In "Fiddler on the Roofie", Queer Duck is trying to find a movie for his younger nephew Little Lucky to watch. Unfortunately, Lucky finds ''Poke-A-Mon'' and puts it on under the impression that it's [[Anime/PokemonTheSeries the similarly-named anime]]. HilarityEnsues. The end of the episode has his nephew snag another tape titled ''[[WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle Rock Hard and Bull Sprinkle]]''.
80-->'''Little Lucky''': What are those two men doing?\
81'''Queer Duck''': They're inflating... each other.
82* PoliticallyIncorrectVillain: There isn't an antagonist in the series who isn't homophobic.
83* PrankCall: "Queer Doc" opens with Queer Duck prank calling Dr. Laura's radio show.
84* PrisonRape: The episode "B.S. I Love You" ends with Queer Duck going to prison for trespassing on Barbara Streisand's property, where his cellmate is a burly duck who compliments his beak. Since this is Queer Duck we're talking about, he actually enjoys his cellmate's interest in him.
85* ThePrankster: Queer Duck has shades of messing with his enemies for the hell of it in some episodes, getting his HeteronormativeCrusader enemies into hijinks and jumping around a'la WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck.
86* {{Pun}}:
87** Oscar Wildcat accuses Openly Gator of crying "crocodile tears" in the first episode.
88** In another episode, he exclaims "Boy George!"[[note]]"By George!"[[/note]]
89* QueerPeopleAreFunny: The other 50% of the jokes are the characters' homosexuality being played for laughs.
90* RapidFireComedy: Considering that most of the cartoons are less than five minutes long, it's inevitable that most of the jokes would be quick and broad.
91* RhetoricalQuestionBlunder: When they attend the funeral of a friend who died of AIDS:
92-->'''Openly Gator:''' ''(sobbing)'' ''Why him? Why him?''\
93'''Queer Duck:''' Oh, I don't know, because he was a condom-hating, intravenous drug user with a Haitian boyfriend?\
94'''Openly Gator:''' That was a ''rhetorical'' wail!
95* ShoutOut:
96** The title sequence includes a shot of Queer Duck [[Film/TheSoundOfMusic running through an open field with mountains in the background]].
97** In "Wedding Blee Blues," Oscar Wildcat points out the window of the airplane to something on the wing. Bi-Polar Bear asks if it's [[Recap/TheTwilightZoneS5E123NightmareAt20000Feet a gremlin]].
98** "[[Film/RoadToMorocco The Gay Road To Morocco]]." An animated Creator/BobHope and Creator/BingCrosby even make a cameo at the beginning.
99** In "Radio Head," Openly Gator defeats Dr. Laura by [[Film/TheWizardOfOz throwing a bucket of water on her, causing her to melt]].
100** At the end of "Santa Clause Is Coming... Out," all four main characters look up while singing softly as snow falls around them a'la ''WesternAnimation/ACharlieBrownChristmas''.
101* TakeThat:
102** "Queer As Fowl" has a fairly subtle dig at AIDS and homopboia reducing the average life expectancy of gay men when Queer Duck complains about having to sit through too many funerals for his friends.
103** At the end of "Gym Neighbors", Openly Gator gets upset when Queer Duck tells him that his deformed snout makes him look like Tori Spelling.
104* ThermometerGag: The series' opening shows a fake-out of Queer Duck preparing to shove a thermometer up a zebra's butt.
105* TransparentCloset: The first episode starts with Queer Duck realizing that it's National Coming Out Day and announcing to the waiting room of his office that he's gay, only to be met with silent, blank stares and one of the people in the waiting room saying "Well, duh". The next scene has him telling his friends that [[BlatantLies everyone cheered and hugged him]].
106* TheUnfavorite: Both Queer Duck and his lesbian sister Melissa are seen by their parents as inferior to their straight brother Lucky.
107* UnsympatheticComedyProtagonist: Queer Duck himself is vain, promiscuous and generally egotistical, but he always gets the bad guy in the end.
108* UranusIsShowing: This particular homonym-based joke is used in "The Road to Morocco" after Openly Gator says something about a trip to Uranus.
109-->'''Queer Duck''': My what? Oh, you mean the planet.
110* VisualPun: In "I'm Coming Out", Queer Duck refers to his boss as a "bitch of a boss", and she happens to be a female dog.
111* WeightWoe: The plot of "Gym Neighbors" kicks off with Openly Gator crying over his fat ass.
112* WhatDidIDoLastNight:
113** Episode 2 opens with the aftermath of a crazy drunken party at Queer Duck's house. After looking over the mess from their bed, Openly Gator rolls over and [[BedmateReveal sees a hippo in bed with them]].
114** In "Mardi Foie Gras," Queer Duck gets drunk and wakes up in bed with a woman.
115* WholePlotReference: ''Bi Polar Bear and the Glorious Hole'' is one of ''Literature/WinnieThePooh and The Honey Tree''.

119A DirectToVideo AnimatedMusical feature, simply titled ''Queer Duck: The Movie'', was released in 2006.
120
121Queer Duck finds himself in an existential crisis, questioning his homosexuality and thinking how much easier his life would be if everyone in the world didn't hate him because of who he was in love with. After breaking up with Openly Gator, he becomes acquainted with washed-up Broadway diva Lola Buzzard (Jackie Hoffman), helping her make a comeback with her one-woman show ''I'm Not Dead Yet'' and eventually getting engaged to her. Thinking this may be his one shot at a happy life, Queer Duck seeks the help of local gay conversion therapist Rev. Vandergelding (Creator/JeffBennett), who turns him into a "bro"-type slob. Will Queer Duck even again be the homosexual everyone knows and loves?
122
123----
124
125!!''Queer Duck: The Movie'' provides examples of...
126* AccidentalPublicConfession: Rev. Vandergelding, it's probably not a good idea to shout that you're going to continue kidnapping and drugging someone [[spoiler:within earshot of police officers]].
127* AbsurdlyLongStairway: Straight!Queer Duck carries Lola up multiple flights of stairs ''and'' has to take an elevator up to get to their bedroom for their honeymoon. Lampshaded when he stops on one landing to rest and sees about twenty more flights of stairs to climb, uttering a frustrated [[ThisIsGonnaSuck "Aw, crap."]]
128* AllGaysArePromiscuous: About 90% of the jokes are about the stereotype that gay men want to have sex with anyone who's male.
129* AllGaysLoveTheater: Plot relevant! After all, the whole thing is kicked off by Queer Duck helping a former Broadway diva make a comeback through a one-woman show.
130* AllJustADream: The intro turns out to be a dream Queer Duck is experiencing.
131* AnimalStereotypes: Bi-Polar Bear's boss at Roebuck is a literal jackass who laughs at him when he makes a fool of himself.
132* AnimatedMusical: It's an animated film loaded with musical numbers.
133* AnimationBump: The animation is ''marginally'' better than the web series. Emphasis on marginally.
134* AsHimself: Creator/ConanOBrien and Bruce Vilanch play themselves.
135* TheBeard: Lola Buzzard's bonding with Queer Duck leads to her asking Queer Duck to marry her. When Queer Duck points out that he doesn't think the marriage will work since he's gay, Lola replies that she doesn't mind since a lot of her previous husbands were gay.
136* BlackComedy:
137** Among the pieces of Creator/ShirleyTemple memorabilia in Oscar Wildecat's store is Shirley herself, boxed up like a doll and saying she can't breathe.
138** The [[ItMakesSenseInContext singing silverware]] in Lola's house includes the butcher knife that OJ Simpson used to murder his wife.
139** Queer Duck's announcement that he wants to marry a woman and be straight brings his grandmother back to life because she's no longer dead ''to him.'' She later falls over dead when Queer Duck becomes gay again.
140* BlackComedyRape: Alluded to as [[spoiler:Rev. Vandergelding]] is being hauled off to jail.
141--> '''[[spoiler:Rev. Vandergelding]]''': ...Just get me away from all this gay sex!\
142'''OfficerOHara''': Er, yeah...
143** Alluded to again later when [[spoiler:Rev. Vandergelding lands at a gay rodeo doused in his own straight-conversion juice, grows a thick, furry mane and is chased after by a horny bull]].
144* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: "Ladies, gentleman and lady-like gentleman..."
145* BreakingTheFourthWall:
146** As Queer Duck is about to sing about his childhood.
147--> '''Rev. Vandergelding''': Wait, is this going to be a musical number? ''What is it with [[AllGaysLoveTheater you people and musical numbers]]??''
148** Later, Queer Duck promises his friends anything they want to make up for neglecting them. Bi-Polar Bear asks for a bigger part in this movie.
149-->'''Queer Duck''': Mmm... maybe in [[SequelHook the sequel]].\
150'''Bi-Polar Bear''': [[SarcasmMode I'm holdin' my breath]].
151* CallBack:
152** The movie starts with Queer Duck and Openly Gator waking up in bed together after a crazy party the previous night, similar to the episode "Fiddler On The Roofie."
153** Queer Duck's flashback to when he first realized he was gay is a clip from an earlier episode where he pops out of his egg and announces "I'm gay!"
154* ComingStraightStory: Inverted. Queer Duck begins to question his homosexuality, even pursuing a relationship with a woman and going through conversion therapy, but in the end concludes that yes, he's absolutely gay.
155* CountryMatters: Subverted via CurseCutShort during "Baseball Is Gay."
156-->'''Singers''': ''One hits\
157One bunts\
158We're just a bunch'a silly...''\
159'''Bi-Polar Bear''': Woah woah woah!
160* CureYourGays: The plot involves Queer Duck voluntarily seeking out conversion therapy. And unlike the web show, it's PlayedForDrama. [[spoiler:It still doesn't work, of course]].
161* CurseCutShort: Queer Duck tries to call Rev. Vandergelding a motherfucker when calling into his talk show, but gets hung up on before he can.
162* DamnedByFaintPraise: Openly Gator tells Conan O'Brian that he loves his show because [[NapInducingSpeak it helps him sleep]].
163* DarkerAndEdgier: While still ostensibly a broad comedy, the stakes are significantly higher and the {{gayngst}} is taken a little more seriously, reflecting on more RealLife anxieties of homosexual men such as conversion therapy, questioning, hate crimes and even the Stonewall Riots.
164* DragQueen: [[spoiler:Regina, the female singer whom Oscar Wildcat had a one-night stand with in the '60s, turns out to be Rex, the "converted" gay man who appears on Rev. Vandergelding's talk show at the beginning]]. The two are finally reunited when [[spoiler:Rex]] comes to Oscar's antique shop to pawn shop to get a price on his old earring, only for Oscar to reveal he's had the other one all these years as a keepsake.
165* DudeNotFunny: Straight!Queer Duck shoots Oscar Wildcat a look for making a bad pun at [[spoiler:Lola]]'s funeral.
166-->'''Oscar Wildcat''': The gay community shares your pain. All across America, fags are at half-mast. (''Queer Duck glares at him'') Too soon?
167* ExpyCoexistence: The theme park Happyland is an obvious pastiche to Disneyland, but a statement by Openly Gator makes it clear that Disneyland exists in the same universe.
168* FalseTeethTomfoolery: Lola Buzzard is revealed to wear dentures when she loses them during a subversion of the SpaghettiKiss trope.
169* FurAndLoathing: Downplayed. An octogenarian at Bi-Polar Bear's job pinches his fur and says would make a terrific coat. Angered, he grabs her neck folds and says they'd make a terrific boat cover.
170* GagNose: Music/BarbraStreisand, of course, has a large nose, which she uses as a magic wand to turn Queer Duck back into a gay man.
171* GallowsHumor: Lola Buzzard's song, "Smile Ya Bastard Smile," which she sings to the dying patients in the ICU. Queer Duck even accompanies her terrible jokes by playing a {{sting}} on a bedpan like a cymbal.
172* {{Gayngst}}: PlayedForDrama more than the series ever did.
173* IAmWhatIAm: Openly Gator: "I am a gay man! Like my father and his father before him."
174* IAteWhat: Oscar Wildcat shudders when he learns that he's eaten walnuts [[spoiler:which Bi-Polar bear cracked with his butt cheeks]].
175* TheImmodestOrgasm: Lola and Straight!Queer Duck's honeymoon sex causes the chandler several floors below them to shake. ''[[RefugeInAudacity While the wedding guests are still there!]]''
176* INeedAFreakingDrink: While giving out thermometers at his hospital, a depressed Queer Duck takes one patient's cigarette out of it's holder and takes a drag off of it, then puts the thermometer in the holder. Said patient turns out to be Lola Buzzard.
177* InnocentlyInsensitive: One of the re-decorators at Lola's house asks "what died in here." Queer Duck indignantly replies "My [[spoiler:wife]]."
178* IronicEcho: The mascot at Happy Land yells "Beat it, homos!" at Queer Duck and his friends when he bars them from having a "gay day" at the park. After Queer Duck [[spoiler:buys the park, he throws the mascot out while saying "Beat it, hetero!"]].
179* IWantMyBelovedToBeHappy: While he's not at all happy about Queer Duck marrying Lola Buzzard, Openly Gator tells Queer Duck that he's nonetheless happy that he is getting married.
180* KarmicRape: Reverend Vandergelding's comeuppance for trying to make gay people straight is that a gay bull starts making advances toward him after he's doused with his own gay-curing serum.
181* LaserGuidedKarma: The movie opens with Queer Duck and his other gay friends trying to have a "gay day" at Happy Land only to be denied entry. Later, Queer Duck [[spoiler:uses his inheritance to buy the place and turn it into an exclusively gay amusement park]].
182* LineageLadder: At one point, Openly Gator states he is "A proud gay man, like my father, and his father before him."
183* MaleGaze: A homosexual variant, as Queer Duck spent most of his youth "watching anything with men in tights" just to stare at their crotch bulges. After he turns straight but wants to be gay again, he bemoans how he can't stop staring at a nurse's big boobs.
184* MajorGeneralSong: Queer Duck sings about his sexual awakening in a sound-alike of the trope-naming song, as it started with him seeing a performance of ''Theatre/HMSPinafore'' as a kid and noticing all [[HelloSailor the sailors']] crotch bulges.
185* MarshmallowHell: Lola smothers Queer Duck with her breasts a couple times.
186* MrAltDisney: Happyland's founder Fritz Happy is an unflattering example. It's stated by his son that their real surname is [[GodwinsLaw Hitler]] (spelled with two T's) and his current status is being cryogenically frozen with a display saying he isn't to be thawed until the year 3066, referencing the old urban legend that Walt Disney was frozen.
187* MythologyGag: Queer Duck's love for Music/BarbraStreisand comes full circle when she comes to help him turn back into a gay man.
188* NegativeContinuity: Some details are contradictory to events established in the original web series, most notably Queer Duck stating that he came out to his parents as gay during his bar mitzvah, which contradicts the actual series having him come out to his parents in the first episode while he's an adult.
189* NonMammalianHair: Lola has some. Queer Duck lampshades his own lack of it.
190-->'''Hairdresser''': How do you wear it?\
191'''Queer Duck''': Dunno. Feathered?
192* NonMammalMammaries: Lola has a rather l ample cleavage for a buzzard.
193* NoCelebritiesWereHarmed: Aside from the celebirites that the main characters are immitating (see above for that), we now have Ethel Merman (Lola) and Jonathan Harris (Peckary, who even moans [[Series/LostInSpace "Oh, the pain!"]]).
194* NoSongForTheWicked: In an animated film chock full of musical numbers, the movie's antagonist Reverend Vandergelding is one of the few characters who doesn't sing (except for some participation in Queer Duck's song about how he came out to his parents).
195* NWordPrivileges: A couple of jokes.
196** While Queer Duck and Lola are being serenaded at an Italian restaurant, the sing sings "She's an old bad and he's a young fa-" but Queer Duck cuts him off.
197** Later, Rev. Vandergelding uses every euphemism for homosexuality to describe Queer Duck, who eventually yells "Hey, I'm not ''that'' gay!"
198* TheOneThatGotAway: Regina, the woman whom Oscar Wildcat had a one night stand with in the '60s.
199* OutWithABang: [[spoiler:Lola]] dies the morning after [[spoiler:she and Queer Duck have sex]]. Of course, it's also due to her age and the fact that she had more illicit substances in her than she did blood.
200* PetTheDog: In a significant break from his usual bitchiness, Queer Duck invites his friends to the Tonys to make up for hardly seeing them any more.
201* PrankCall: Queer Duck calls Rev. Vandergelding's talk show asking him to cure his turrets as an excuse to call him names. He calls up again a few seconds later pretending to be an offended caller [[ButHeSoundsHandsome who agrees with the previous caller]].
202* {{Pun}}: The gay bar Queer Duck and Oscar Wildcat talk at is called The Manhole. According to a sign outside, there's no cover.
203* RefugeInAudacity:
204** InUniverse, Queer Duck decides to have a "Gay Day" at Happy Land instead of the more-accepting [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disneyland]] for the sole purpose of being a {{troll}}.
205** In Bi-Polar Bear's flashback of getting picked last for softball as a kid, the two teams pick (blind) Little Music/StevieWonder and (paralyzed) Little Creator/StephenHawking before giving him a chance.
206* SelfAbuse: Regina's song "Shamalama" is about a boy named Jimmy she dated who masturbated while thinking about her every night because she wouldn't have sex with him. She mentions that Jimmy's excessive masturbation caused him to become blind and crazy.
207* SerialSpouse: Lola Buzzard is said to have married and divorced a lot of times, with her manservant Peccary being her second and fifth husband.
208* ShoutOut
