Go To

Tree Cornered Tweety is a 1956 Looney Tunes cartoon starring Tweety Bird and Sylvester the cat.

Tweety narrates his daily activities as he is spotted and chased by Sylvester in the city, the country, down a slope, a minefield, and the middle of a wooden bridge.

Tropes

  • Borrowed Catchphrase: The fisherman at the end of the episode says Tweety's catchprase "I tawt I taw a putty tat".
  • Circling Saw: Sylvester tries to saw a hole on a wooden bridge from under Tweety. Two problems with that: 1) Tweety can fly; and 2) Sylvester saws around himself, sending him plummeting with the sawed-off circle and into the lake below.
  • Pie in the Face: Tweety seeks refuge from Sylvester in one of the food boxes at an automat. Sylvester inserts a coin to get Tweety out but is instead hit with a pie when the box opens.
  • Shout-Out: Tweety's narration parodies Dragnet.
  • The Voiceless: Sylvester doesn't speak throughout the cartoon.
