"A Star is Scorned" is the seventy-third episode of Darkwing Duck, and the seventy-third episode to air on The Disney Afternoon.
Synopsis
Darkwing's TV producer feels that Darkwing's TV show needs a new gimmick in the form of a spin-off character, which might really be Darkwing's replacement by Dr. Reginald Bushroot! This scheme is actually a scam by the TV producer to steal money from the show with an overinflated expense account -- since it's much cheaper to have a plant such as Bushroot as the main star than an actor such as Darkwing!
