History WMG / TomAndJerry

Tom got fed up with Mammy Two Shoes and ran away. Jerry ran away with him, and Tom didn't attempt to eat him because Mammy Two Shoes always forced him to chase him down, and so they searched for a good owner and a calm life. Most of the owners were good but the life with them wasn't, and so, by the end of each episode, they continued to search.

In an episode of ''TomAndJerryTales'', Tom joins a group of three cats to catch Jerry. All of them wear different ties which hold different symbols. Three of them wear a Spades (Tom), Hearts (The Long, Orange One) And Clubs (The Small, Yellow One). The fourth one, while not wearing a suit, does indeed act like Diamonds Droog, who acts through manipulation and treachery.

[[WMG: The reason [[TheTomAndJerryShow Tom and Jerry Show of 1975]] ever existed is because....]]

* After Mammy threw Jasper out at the end of ''PussGetsTheBoot'', she bought a new cat; Tom. This explains why they look so different.

This could also explain why whenever Tom has had a part in harming others around him, he is the one who is always punished instead of Jerry, even when he didn't really mean it to them -even talking and explaining things to them will not change their stance when Jerry is pulling the strings because of who Jerry really is.

For example, Tom will want to consume living prey and eat out of the refrigerator or other food stashes without permission indicating Gluttony, he will devise horrible schemes such as building a mousetrap or selling away an escaped animal for money indicating Greed, he will become attracted to any female cat that he sees without paying any attention to what she really wants indicating Lust, he will use whatever violent force on both Jerry and anything and anyone around in order to catch Jerry indicating Wrath, he will often be sleeping around the place when he should be keeping an eye out for Jerry indicating Sloth, he'll get jealous of the fortunes of others around him very quickly (especially Jerry's)indicating Envy and he'll care about himself over others over what he gets and how he looks at himself indicating Pride.\\

[[WMG: The Gene Deitch Tom and Jerry shorts that featured the sadistically abusive human male owner who's [[KarmaHoudini almost never punished for his abuses to Tom]] became the direct influence for the {{WhatACartoonShow}} short 'By One, Get One Free']]
The short in question stars a cat bought by a man with a hair-trigger temper who says that he'll bring the cat to the violin factory if he sees one scratch on any of his stuff during his date with a woman. During his date, another cat brought in by the girlfriend invites a party of other cats into the guy's high-rise apartment and completely trash it, leaving the guy to go furious and try to tear up his cat in front of his girlfriend when is was essentially the other cat who was really responsible for the mess. this leads his girlfriend to call the sanity ward to restrain the guy -who say that cats have feelings like him- and [[Main/KarmicJackpot break ''him'' up]] before being taken away and sparing the cat of any more abuse.

There are statements that Gene Deitch did hate Tom and Jerry for its violence and racist stereotypes. Not to mention, his run was rather short. So he could've been doing it for the money at the time, but hated it and couldn't take it anymore.

* Not to mention, he got his entire body sliced in half earlier in the episode. If he could survive that, he can probably survive anything.

Warner Bros. had ThePlan going on. They knew only hardcore cartoon buffs were going to complain about it, so they made a replacement program for them, while giving the general public the edited versions, and everyone's happy.

Come on, it's a cartoon. It ''seems'' final, but even if you survived the decapitation, it would probably smart like a motherfucker.

She's the product of an inter-racial marriage.

Warner Bros. had a XanatosGambit going on. They knew only hardcore cartoon buffs were going to complain about it, so they made a replacement program for them, while giving the general public the edited versions, and everyone's happy.

Watch ''Two Little Indians'' and you see two different mice. They act differently in different shorts too.

** Perhaps he has joint custody with Tyke's mother.

* This. Makes. So. Much. SENSE.

In a new episode, Tom joins a group of three cats to catch Jerry. All of them wear different ties which hold different symbols. Three of them wear a Spades (Tom), Hearts (The Long, Orange One) And Clubs (The Small, Yellow One). The fourth one, while not wearing a suit, does indeed act like Diamonds Droog, who acts through manipulation and treachery.

But not directly. As a result, he indirectly abuses him by using Jerry. Although he knows Jerry is responsible, he pins the blame on Tom.

* I could Spike has this kind of setting to Tyke.
