Thread: Tom and Jerry

Interesting enough, it's usually secondary characters that speak regularly (Mammy Two Shoes, Spike, Jerry's relatives, etc.)

Tom and Jerry do speak but it's pretty rare.

I miss this show. I think the concept of Tom & Jerry not talking was beyond my realm of thought as a child, but I appreciate it more now.

Watching it now!

I love watching Tom and Jerry.I have all their episodes on dvd.On an collection.
I'm watching it often.it keeps me laughing

Well sometimes Tom always gets the last laugh

Tom can never catch Jerry! xD
It is funny how he always gets hurt. Just get him already! xD

The Chuck jones era of Tom and Jerry is the best for me.

As far as the first picture goes, I was never really a fan of the Gene Deitch era. It's like a whole new direction as opposed to the Hanna Barbera/Chuck Jones era.

One thing that stands out to me of Tom and Jerry as opposed to many cartoons (not counting silent era cartoons) is that there is very minimal dialogue and that the music is like the dialogue itself (Watch the episode Jerry and Jumbo, especially the scene where Tom confronts Jerry about the disappearance of his milk from the milk bowl).

I just watched it today. Ah miss those.

I think it's rather interesting on how they showed how "Mammy" looked like, even if it was a split second shot.

Here's the episode I'm referring to: YouTube - Tom and Jerry Eps 59 Saturday Evening Puss

And the screenshot:
Shot of the original Mammy

The reason why I brought it up is because they re-dubbed her voice and gave her a new look since the original version was considered racist.

That episode is funny(i had watching that episode already a few times on my collection.
