Sperms of Endearment

Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Bernice, Duckmans sister in-law, decides she wants to have a child of her own. After trying the dating scene she decides to give artificial insemination a go. Due to a mis communication and over abundance of, er, ‘product’, the service gives her Duckmans ‘donation’. Hilarity ensues as Duckman and Bernice are incompatible in every [in] conceivable way.

Our Take

A mid-tier episode that leans hard on one uncomfortable premise and mostly coasts on it. The premise itself is Duckman’s brand of gross-out absurdity, and there are some solid exchanges between Duckman and Bernice, whose mutual hostility has always been the show’s most reliable engine. But the middle stretches thin and the gags get repetitive. Worth it for fans, skippable otherwise.
