====Daffy's pairing with Speedy in 1965β1968==== When the Warner Bros. animation studio briefly outsourced cartoon production to [[DePatie-Freleng Enterprises]] (DFE) in the 1960s, Daffy Duck became an antagonist in several cartoons opposite [[Speedy Gonzales]], who refers to Daffy as "the loco duck." In ''[[Well Worn Daffy]]'' (1965), Daffy is determined to keep the mice away from a desperately needed well seemingly for no other motive than pure maliciousness. Furthermore, when he draws all the water he wants, Daffy then attempts to destroy the well in spite of the vicious pointlessness of the act, forcing Speedy to stop him. The Warner Bros. studio was entering its twilight years, and even Daffy had to stretch for humor in the period. In many of the later DFE cartoons, such as ''[[Feather Finger]]'' and ''[[Daffy's Diner]]'', Daffy is portrayed as a more sympathetic character (often forced to turn against Speedy at the behest of a common enemy) rather than the full-blown villain he is in cartoons like ''[[Assault and Peppered]]''. The last cartoon featuring Daffy and Speedy is ''[[See Ya Later Gladiator]]'', in what animation fans call the worst cartoon made by Warner Bros.<ref name="hreporter-29may2008">{{cite web | last = Hunter | first = Matthew | url = http://toolooney.goldenagecartoons.com/daffy.htm | title = A Complete History Of Daffy Duck | publisher = Matthew Hunter's Unofficial Looney Tunes Page | date = 2000-01-01 | access-date = 2010-04-08 | url-status = dead | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110608212719/http://toolooney.goldenagecartoons.com/daffy.htm | archive-date = 2011-06-08 }}</ref>
