New Tom & Jerry Discoveries
6 December 2007
Wow, in this late-entry Tom and Jerry CinemaScope cartoon I "discovered" three things early on that I hadn't seen in past episodes: 1 - Jerry has his own dark room in his little mouse-hole. I thought he only had one room, but apparently has a complete apartment!; 2 - Tom is very clever, not so stupid as he usually is pictured as he comes up with a clever idea to frame Spike the bulldog; 3 - Tom's head comes off when he's surprised.

The bulk of the story occurs after Jerry has made about 50 copies of Tom framing the dog and puts them all over the house. Tom is desperate to get rid of all of them before one of his owners sees one. He goes to all lengths, and some of the gags are good and all of them are original. Part of the reason is that this isn't the normal "Tom and Jerry chase cartoon."

It's a very entertaining Tom and Jerry cartoon, as most of them are.
