Information
This
has always been my favorite cartoon short series. The
original 7-minute shorts for this cat and mouse duo were
created during the early to mid nineteen-forties. In the
the mid-seventies the show made it to television and was
syndicated.
However,
it wasn't too successful in a television format and was
cancelled. This show has been immitaded by Itchy and Scratchy
from the Simpsons. This is where the Simpsons borrowed
their idea for that segment of their show. But Tom & Jerry
have an appeal that goes beyond Sylvester and Tweety because
their humor doesn't rely on voices, instead it is purely
visual.
