I would like to know after all this time, why is Launchpad Darkwing Duck's sidekick? I've seen nearly every episode of Disney Afternoon. So I'd like to know when Launchpad move to Saint Kanard? And why did disney decide to move him there and make him DW's sidekick?
@Samael51760 Absolutely. It would get my vote. Even more so as Promo movie for a new Disney Resort like Beauty and the Beast was for Resort Paris making it a hit.
I remember back when DW first aired, it was preceded by a weekly countdown: for (ten?) weeks prior to the premere, there were 30-second spots using variations on this promo, but with the number of weeks to go worked into the lyrics ("Whack, Smack! What was that? Darkwing duck is on the attack! Ten more weeks to go and then bam boom...") Are those promos available anywhere?
This reminds me of a period of time when cartoons were required to say the show's title as many times as possible in the opening theme... I don't know why that was the rule, but someone please tell 4Kids to cut that out.
Hmmm... upon further inspection, I've noticed a difference between this version and the version shown on the VHS tapes music video. In the music video, the chorus says "Kickin' In The Groove", but here the chorus is clearly saying "On Disney Afternoon". Hmmm... how odd.
Actually, if you remember the "Darkwing Duck"/"Mickey Mouse Club" Special back in the 90s, this song played after the first episode of "Darkwing Duck"—entitled "Darkly Dawns The Duck". And before this premiere, there were "commercial short-versions" every week, leading up to this music video.
Haha! Oh lord, they made a variation of the Darkwing rap, too! Thanks for posting this, it was interesting to hear the little changes that were made to it.
I remember watching this when I was younger. So many memories

Disney should seriously consider making a DW Duck movie. The kids of today need to know what an awesome and comic hero this Disney duck was.

Might been a less used version that was used around the time Disney Afternoon was on it's peak.
