Nigel Mitchell of ''[[CBR.com]]'' stated, "He was the terror that flapped in the night. He was the fingernail that scraped the blackboard of your soul. He was Darkwing Duck, and he made a generation laugh and thrill with his crazy adventures. Following the success of "Ducktales," the 1992 TV show "Darkwing Duck" was one of the first action-oriented shows on Disney's block, and wasn't like any other show on TV."<ref>{{Cite web |last=Mitchell |first=Nigel |date=2017-03-12 |title=The 15 Best Episodes of Darkwing Duck |url=https://www.cbr.com/the-15-best-episodes-of-darkwing-duck/ |access-date=2022-08-27 |website=CBR |language=en-US}}</ref> Amanda Dyer of ''[[Common Sense Media]]'' rated the series 4 out of 5 stars, writing, "''Darkwing Duck'' is a 1990s Disney animated comedy that has slapstick cartoon violence (including weapon use) and mild name calling. It follows the heroic yet self-serving antics of cartoon duck superhero Darkwing Duck as he battles various wacky supervillains with his sidekick, Launchpad McQuack."<ref>{{Cite web |title=Darkwing Duck TV Review {{!}} Common Sense Media |url=https://www.commonsensemedia.org/tv-reviews/darkwing-duck |access-date=2022-08-27 |website=www.commonsensemedia.org |language=en}}</ref>
