Hands down, it has to be "Solid Serenade." It combines toots, Spike, and Jerry's antics. Music, dancing, and annoying Jerry make this a winner in my book Spoiler <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/HPjO4p3PFHM&hl=en_US&fs=1&start=9"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/HPjO4p3PFHM&hl=en_US&fs=1&start=9" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> ♪ Is you is or is you ain't my baby Maybe baby's found somebody new ♫ [raised lips like Charles Boyer] "Now you set my soul on fire. It is not just a little spark; it is a flame. A BIG Roaring Flame! I can feel it now!" I never liked the Chuck Jones cartoons... I guess I was used to the Fred Quimby smooth transitions and chases... the addition of recurring characters like Spike and Quacky and Mammy... :grin: Which one's your favorite?
You must spread reputation around before giving it to SwoLy-D again. Gotta go with "Heavenly Puss" - great cartoon.
They all kind of run together for me but if Heavenly Puss is the one were Tom has to atone for his treatment of Jerry to get his wings then add me to that list, it's the one that's always stuck in my mind.

Can't see any pics or videos in this thread, so not sure if it's been referenced or not. I like the one where Jerry's guitar playing friend or relative stays with him and keeps using Tom's whiskers as his guitar strings.

Everytime someone mentions TOM AND JERRY . . the Serenade comes to mind. It took me some time to get use to the ones where no one talked and was kind of abstract Rocket River
This is one of my favorites.. <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hIAP4R9QpG0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hIAP4R9QpG0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> On a side note, does anyone know where I can find the videos to those invention episodes? i think there were at least two, one with inventions like the toaster that made all breakfast and another with different cars like the shaving one.
The one where it looks like Tom is going to win, but in the end Jerry makes Tom look foolish and wins.
Ahhh, that narrows it down to a few. So it's not "Hiccup Pup" or "That's My Pup" with Spike and Tyke, right? So... which one?

Anytime T&J come up, I immediately think "Is you is, or is you ain't my baby". I love this one and we watch it pretty often. I also like Zoot Cat and Cue Ball Cat. Texas Tom is also good. My wife likes Pecos Pest (Froggy went a-courtin, Crambo) and Mice Follies (Frozen Kitchen)
This one is pretty good too: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/vRELb0fiQbQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/vRELb0fiQbQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
That's what SHE said. Don't be afraid to have the same tastes as the Mexican dude from the forum. Don't be afraid. Don't be.
