Donald Duck's 68th Birthday is June 9th! So Toon Disney celebrates with a special event called "A Whole Darn Day of Ducks."
It will feature nine hours of cartoons starring ducks, including DuckTales, Quack Pack, Mighty Ducks, and Darkwing Duck. "A Whole Darn Day of Ducks." airs on Sunday, June 9th from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM Eastern on Toon Disney.
Donald Duck starred in his first cartoon, a Silly Symphony entitled "The Wise Little Hen" on June 9, 1934. Since then, he has appeared in over 128 Donald Duck cartoons, including the Academy Award-winning "Der Fuehrer's Face" in 1943 (the second greatest animated short of all time according to Toon Zone), as well as an assortment of animated shorts starring fellow fab-fivers Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy and Pluto.
In DuckTales, Scrooge McDuck's innate sense for making and finding money leads him to outrageous adventures in his Duckburg home and around the world. Also along for the amazing excursions are Webbigail Vanderquack, Gyro Gearloose, Mrs. Beakley and the villainous Beagle Boys.
Donald Duck (or Don as he's called these days) stars in Quack Pack as a cameraman for a cable entertainment news magazine, alongside his sweetheart, Daisy Duck, the news team's independent and intuitive field reporter. Between work and looking after his now teenage trio of nephews, Don's life is filled with difficult and sometimes impossible situations.
Mighty Ducks follows the adventures of six young half-human/half-ducks who not only play some serious hockey, but travel across the galaxy to save Earth from the wicked reptilian Dragaunus and his equally odious henchmen.
When the ordinary Drake Mallard dons a mask, hat and cape, he becomes swashbuckling crimefighter Darkwing Duck. With his sidekick Launchpad McQuack and adopted orphan niece Gosalyn, Darkwing saves the streets of St. Canard from imminent disasters.
