The following is a list of episodes of Darkwing Duck. A total of 91 episodes were made. 65 episodes aired on The Disney Afternoon in the 1991–1992 season (preceded by a special hour-long airing of the origin story Darkly Dawns the Duck the weekend before), with 13 more simultaneously airing on ABC in fall 1991. Another 13 episodes aired on ABC in the fall of 1992.
It should be noted that the broadcast order of the first 78 episodes does not reflect the stories' in-universe chronology; for example, Liquidator's origin episode, Dry Hard, was aired after his appearances in Just Us Justice Ducks and Life, the Negaverse and Everything. The series' production order (with the exceptions of Darkly Dawns the Duck coming at the beginning and Dirty Money coming before In Like Blunt) most closely reflects the intended and chronological episode order.

Season One (1991-1992)[]
For simplification purposes, the Disney Afternoon episodes and the first 13 ABC episodes are both listed here. While all 78 episodes in the first year constituted a single production season, Disney originally kept the ABC episodes separate from the syndicated episodes for distribution purposes. Confusingly, the DVD sets appear to be using the episode order in which the ABC episodes are considered a separate season.
Reruns of the first 13 ABC episodes were aired on The Disney Afternoon in the fall of 1992.
The specific airdates for ten of the final twelve Disney Afternoon episodes, broadcast in April-May 1992, are currently unknown.
