Now, I was originally going to make this for a Vulpz The Reviewer video, but due to complications involving storage, I decided to make it here instead. For this listing, I will be using the original Tiny Toons show, and it's closely canon specials (e.g the specials.), I am disqualifying episodes where she did appear, but wasn't necessarily a total nuisance like Can't Buy My Love, and the episode Sweety tried to get Furrball to eat her. I am also disqualifying all episodes of Pinky, Elmyra, & The Brain because the show has been confirmed to be non-canon. Now, let's begin.
Elmyra Duff, the little girl version of Elmer Fudd, what is wrong with you, child? Some people think your actions are funny, I, on the other hand, think you are one of the most insufferable characters I have ever seen. I mean, while Elmer Fudd hunted animals to death, you loved them to death, and made quite a bad name for yourself in the process.
Not only does it feel like you got hit in the head with a shovel about one hundred and fifty times, you're the biggest animal abuser and abductor since Doctor Eggman, and I cannot believe I compared Eggman as a villain to you. Aside from that one time you protected Furrball from that bully tormenting you, it legitimately feels like you hate the Cat, that is, if you can even feel emotions like hate. So now, I'm going to list some times you were more of a menace than an animal carer.
(Number 10: What's Up, Nurse)
Yeah, Plucky Duck is pretentious, but when it comes to Elmyra volunteering as student Nurse, there are certain lines that shouldn't be crossed. Take this episode for an example.
It starts off with Foghorn Leghorn handing out a pop quiz, and Plucky fakes sick to get out of it. So Foghorn sends him to the nurse, where Granny, the receptionist, summons the student nurse: Elmyra.
She takes him to the room, and whacks him with a mallet to check his reflexes, where instead of just a tap on the knee, she straight up whacks him with it. Later on, she electrocutes him with the defibrillator, like, does she even know what she's doing?
Plucky tries to use a disguise to get away from her, but she ends up discovering it. She takes him to an operating room, where he confesses it was all a lie. She doesn't believe him, and proceeds to do the operation, making him escape, and get trampled by other students.
Later, Plucky is in actual pain, and is assigned a tutor due to missing the test. And surprise, the tutor is Elmyra.
(What a twist!)
(Number 9: Bear Necessities)
When it comes to spin-offs of classic fairy tales, they would be better if they were handled and used properly, instead of just for kicks. Like this one.
Apparently, Elmyra is on a quest to find the three Bears because, plot convenience. She finds the house of the three bears, causing a boring knock off to the original story.
She breaks into the house, eats their porridge, sits in their beds, and is apparently too dumb to know how cameras work.
The bears family comes home, and Elmyra tortures them, like she does every single fucking animal she encounters. The police were called, and the Bears are taken back to the zoo because, again, plot convenience.
(Number 8: Bag That Bunny)
Some people should really think over what actions they take to make a quick buck, and in this case, it's Calamity Coyote.
While Buster is trying to get a book report done, Elmyra throws a completely annoying tantrum like a goddamn toddler, which alerts Calamity when she promises a month's allowance for payment for capturing Buster.
After different fails, Calamity throws in the towel (can't say that's a bad call), until Elmyra extends the offer to three month's allowance. (Like, how much does Elmyra even get payed in the first place? The show never explains it.)
Finally, after many fails, Elmyra decides to take Calamity home, saying he looks like a Rabbit. Apparently, Elmyra is also too stupid to know the difference between a Rabbit and a Coyote. This proves that Elmyra should never be allowed to even be near any animal, big or small.
(Number 7: My Dinner With Elmyra)
You ever wanted a Montana Max torture porn? This is where you'll find it. And oh, I get it, just because Montana and Elmyra are the only two human antagonists, they must be shipped together, because that is an absolute requirement.
It starts off will Montana being forced to take Elmyra out. He takes her to a fast food joint called Weenie Burger (Weenies Burger doesn't sound like a restaurant, it sounds like a fucking disease), only to discover that she enjoys a Happy Baby Puppy Face Meal (try saying that five times fast).
After getting laughed at by everyone in the fast food joint, Montana's Burger fell apart, and then is teased by Fowlmouth and Dizzy, who sing the most childish song in the world. And later on, everyone sings it, including Mary Melody. Elmyra just sees it as a serenade somehow.
Later on, they go to the movies. Montana is expecting to see a film what I can assume is based on Rambo, however, Elmyra instead takes him into some cheesy film. At this point, she never even considered how he felt at that point, or any other point.
Afterwards, we get the ending. I'm not gonna go into detail about how it ends because there's people who don't know how it ends. But I will say this, it's one of the most anti-climatic endings in a Tiny Toons episode.
(Number 6: Working Pig)
Poor Hamton just can't catch a break, can he? Let's see what happens when he gets a job at a toy store.
The episode starts with Hamton hoping to get promoted to vacuum sales while working at a toy store. He gets his first customer, who, unfortunately, is Elmyra. She decides she wants a toy, but doesn't know which.
Keep in mind, all Hamton wanted was to make a sale so he could get a promotion. Keep that in mind.
Elmyra spends the entire time destroying pretty much everything in the store, driving Hamton crazy to find her a sale. After a while of torturing the guy, Elmyra picks out a red crayon.
Just when it looks like something good happened to Hamton for once, Elmyra comes back after drawing crayon all over her house. Seriously, what's with all the jokes against Pigs? That's Pig-ist!
(Number 5: Hare Today, Gone Tomorrow)
You'd think after the event of Bag That Bunny, Buster would stay the hell away from Elmyra, but in this episode, this is not the case.
It starts off with forest animals running from Elmyra. Buster doesn't seem scared, like, at all. She takes him home after mentioning food, and feeds him a mud pie, which Buster mistook for Chocolate.
After a while of torturing Buster in many ways, it is discovered that Elmyra captured other animal characters, most notably: Furrball, Fifi, and a Turtle who was with Elmyra it's entire life.
It later came down to Babs to help Buster and the others out. They even trick Elmyra into thinking she was on another planet inhabited by Rabbits, which eventually makes her terrified of the creatures, and in the end, runs off in fear, but forgets her new fears in future media.
But now, we cut to the big ones.
(Number 4: Drooly Davey)
Do you want to know what's worse than Elmyra torturing animals? How about Elmyra torturing young human infants. Yes, you've read that right.
Now, Drooly Davey is one of those characters who plays a major role in one episode, and then is never seen or mentioned again. In his only appearance, his parents leave Elmyra to babysit him. Even Vicky from Fairly Odd Parents makes a better babysitter.
At first, Elmyra was doing EVERYTHING wrong, but the worst came to when it was time to feed him. Elmyra heated up the bottle so hot, it destroyed an entire tree! There's no doubt it would've killed him.
Just before Elmyra could kill the kid, his parents come home, and Drooly Davey turns into Baby Herman from Roger Rabbit. Okay then...
(Number 3: Spring Break)
I don't know about you, but the Tiny Toons special, Spring Break, is beyond a failure. Goddamnit, unoriginal plot, crappy cameos, weird songs, and overly Elmyra being a total pain in the ass!
Now, Elmyra planned to capture Buster, thinking he was the Easter Bunny. Like, if Elmyra thought Buster was the Easter Bunny, WHY THE HELL DIDN'T SHE TRY TO CAPTURE HIM FOR THAT REASON INSTEAD OF HAVING HIM FOR A FUCKING PET IN THE FIRST PLACE?!"
Anyways, I won't go into much detail about everything that happens in it, but I will say: there's a lot of Plucky Duck torture porn, the plot is just subplots taken from the original show and How I Spent My Vacation. And in the end, is the most clichéd ending in the entire world. That's all you need to know.
(Number 2: Take Elmyra Please)
Goddamnit, this episode sucks! First off, we get a stupid scene revolving around Elmyra's boring family, and it involves her torturing Furrball. Once again, aside from defending him from that bully who was picking on her, Elmyra practically hates the Cat.
The plot of the episode is that Elmyra has been captured by criminals, and thinks it's for a TV show.
(Elmyra is made of stupid.)
We get a completely boring, and braincell draining montage of Elmyra torturing Furrball, the criminals, and thinking she's a TV star. The episode ends with a completely shit scene where criminals are forced to watch Elmyra on TV. Wasn't she supposed to be the antagonist?
Now, before we show Elmyra at her absolute worst, let's take a look at some Dishonourable Mentions.
(Dishonourable Mentions)
1) Teddy Bears Picnic- Remember the Bears family from before? Imagine if they were at a picnic. Yeah, it's just a boring montage of Elmyra harassing the Bears in a Bear costume. That's it.
2) Turtle Hurdle- Yeah, you'll never be able to blame any animals from running away from Elmyra. When her pet Turtle does, she eventually runs across a busy highway to find it. DUMB!
3) Elmyra's Round The World- Not even libraries can stop Elmyra's unbearable antics. Basically, it's just a boring and unfunny montage of Elmyra in different parts of the world, looking stereotypical. Yawn.
4) Sepulveda Boulevard- Was this supposed to be a parody of something? Instead I just see it as a boring Montana Max torture porn, and forced shipping with him and Elmyra. Seriously, if you're going to do stuff like that in episodes, DO IT PROPERLY!
And now, for the moment you've all been waiting for. For the people who know Elmyra for too long, I think you can guess Number 1. Yep, it's THAT episode.
(Number 1: Out Of Odour)
HOLY. FUCKING. SHIT! This is, without a doubt, the worst Tiny Toons episode ever made. It is so bad and horrendous, even hardcore Tiny Toons fans hate it! Prepare to find out why. Oh, and it's important to note that before this episode, Elmyra pretends to be a terminally ill and/or injured child who wants to see Fifi.
The premise of this Train wreck of an episode is that Elmyra thinks Fifi la Fume is a purple Cat, when she is actually a purple Skunk. If you wanted a purple Cat, you'd get Big the Cat.
(Froggy!)
After discovering Fifi was a Skunk, Elmyra tries to trap Fifi with Tomato Paste. She does so by disguising herself as Pepe le Pew, Fifi's mentor, and serenading to her. I feel that this scene was just made to make Pepe le Pew look like a paedophile since Fifi is 14.
Yeah, even true facts won't stop Elmyra. I stand strong when I say that she is more of a villain than Montana Max could ever be. She is a sociopath, and the bane of my standing as a Tiny Toons fan. She doesn't know she harms animals, or at least she's pretending she doesn't know it. And it's because she doesn't even stop to consider their feelings. To think she showed to be a suitable pet owner at least once! Let's just get this over with.
After a while, there's a parade, and something causes Elmyra to lose her scent of smell. How? Why do you even care? And then, comes Elmyra's worst quote.
"I can't smell! You know what that means."
Have you even been listening to what Fifi has been FUCKING TELLING YOU THE ENTIRE EPISODE, YOU LITTLE WHINEY WASTE OF SPACE?! I's amazing that she's proved to be a worse character than a bird who gleefully attempts manslaughter on Coyotes, and worse than a spoilt kid who is greedy of their money.
It's clear that Elmyra doesn't give a shred of a shit about the animals, how they feel, or what they wish. She just wants pets to avoid the inevitable fact that she is doomed to be lonely the rest of her pathetic and sociopathic life.
And that's the end of this listing, now I can make the last Show Town story before I focus on my Love Stinks review. If there's any episodes or specials I've missed, or you think should've been added to the list, leave it in the reviews. Before I end this listing, I have one more thing to say:
Elmyra Duff, rot in Hell.
