Porky Pig

Animated stuttering hog

Porky Pig is an animated cartoon character created by Warner Bros. in the 1930s, a stuttering anthropomorphic pig who became one of the studio's most recognizable Looney Tunes stars.

He is best known for his closing line "Th-th-th-that's all, folks!" which ended countless theatrical shorts.

Porky often played the straight man to zanier characters like Daffy Duck, his mild manner and speech impediment making him an endearing everyman figure in American animation.
