   Many characters in this spin-off centered on the Tasmanian Devil resemble familiar Looney Tunes characters: the Platypus Brothers are similar to Daffy Duck in some respects, both in their duck-billed appearance and their lisping speech; Wendal T. Wolf has a physical appearance similar to Wile E. Coyote and Ralph Wolf; Buddy Boar's blue jacket and pantsless look gives him an aesthetic similar to that of the pig brothers Porky Pig; and the silent Keewee bird can run at incredible speeds like the Road Runner.
