Druggy the Clown is a 1974 American adult animated stoner dark comedy film directed by Ralph Bakshi and produced by DW-Go Fish Film Pictures. It follows the life of a fowl-mouth stoned clown and former cast member of the children’s television program The Happy Hour named Darwin Jake Williams (also known as his former nickname Happy). After getting kicked from the TV station due to his inappropriate and profane behavior in the program front of the children, he tries to become a drug mule (nicknamed into Druggy) for a famous drug lord named Sir Joshua C. Smalls, and sell drugs to kids in the big urban city so he can earn enough money to create his own TV show just for adult audiences. The film features the voices of Peter Fonda as Druggy and Jim Bates as Sir Smalls.
Druggy the Clown is the first DreamWorks-produced animated film to be rated R in America, although it was originally to be rated X. It is also the first studio-produced film to contain crude humor.
