I have always loved the Tom and Jerry cartoons.
Yes, gotta love the slapstick comedy of those two characters!
Yeah, I grew up watching that. Never really bothered me that they didn't really talk in it. 
The series won 7 Academy Awards for animated short film.
I never knew that. I think it is great that I can still find it on tv today.
Yes, Hanna and Barbera produced 115 shorts for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer from 1940 to 1958!
That is a lot in a short period. I have watched tons of cartoons by them.
The show was the highest-grossing animated short series of that time, and even over took "Looney Tunes."
Oh wow I can't believe that. Looney Tunes was real famous, that is still on tv as well today. Tom and Jerry is quite unique.
Yes they were. A number of spin offs have been made from that show.
