The Duck Factory - Jim Carrey’s First Major Role!

The Duck Factory WAS a show. The year was 1984 and NBC was
entering their sitcom golden age. A young cartoonist from the
midwest moves to LA to take a job at a decaying old animation
studio, mainly known for their show Dippy Duck. That young
cartoonist’s name is Skip Tarkenton, and he was played by none
other than Jim Carrey in his first major role! Brynn, Aaron and
Barry attempt to illustrate why this show may have been erased.
They also go off on a lengthy tangent exploring something of
iconic significance from the era…the waterbed.
