At the time, Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies had none of the characters it has today, except Porky Pig. Mel tried for one year to get a tryout for Warner Brothers before he got the chance. When he did he was immediatly a favorite. His very first voice for Looney Tunes was the "Drunken Bull," a Porky Pig character. Very soon after that, he replaced the man doing the voice of Porky Pig who stuttered in real life. When Porky Pig became suddenly popular, he needed a rival. So they created Daffy Duck who quickly became so much more popular than Porky that he to needed his own apponent.
What's up, Doc (Mozart)?
