Cartoon Logic Episode 03: Tom & Jerry (Tee for Two)

This week we dive into MGM's flagship series, Tom & Jerry, the sassiest, brassiest cartoons made in Hollywood's Golden Age. We take a look at industry heavyweights Bill Hanna and Joe Barbera (and their team of animators) and what made a seemingly hack concept of cat-and-mouse so unmatched for so long in this exploration of "visual nonsense". Our analysis is of Tee for Two, and will hear how the description of one scene in particular in a historic magazine article made Bob need to see this cartoon.
