Tom and Jerry cartoon

Tom and Jerry is a classic animated series created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera in 1940. The show features the comedic rivalry between Tom, a house cat, and Jerry, a clever little mouse. Known for its slapstick humor, the series portrays Tom’s endless (and mostly unsuccessful) attempts to catch Jerry, often leading to chaotic chases and hilarious outcomes.

The cartoon is unique for its minimal use of dialogue, relying heavily on visual gags, exaggerated sound effects, and music to drive the story.
