This outrageous series was created and written by Mike Reiss, a major force behind The Simpsons and The Critic and a contributor to The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson, Alf and It's Garry Shandling's Show. The title character named Adam Seymour Duckstein voiced by Jim J. Bullock is a gay anthropomorphic duck who works as a nurse. His boyfriend the indigent artist Openly Gator voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson in the style of Harvey Fierstein is shy and insecure. Their friends throughout the series are Bi Polar Bear voiced by Ren & Stimpy and Futurama actor Billy West in the style of Paul Lynde and the urbane Oscar Wildcat, veteran voice actor Maurice LaMarche. Recurring supporting characters include Queer Duck's in denial mother played by Estelle Harris (George's mother on Seinfeld) and the group's nemesis Dr. Laura Schlessinger played by prolific voice actress Tress MacNeille.
