    Thoroughly pleasant and enjoyable

    Saturday Evening Puss isn't the best Tom and Jerry cartoon I have seen, but it is very funny, pleasant and enjoyable. The story doesn't really hold any new surprises and the ending wasn't as impressive as the rest of the cartoon, but everything else is fine. The animation is very colourful and lively, and the sight gags are very, very clever and inventive. Tom, Jerry and Mammy Two Shoes are endearing and likable still, but what made the cartoon was the soundtrack. I loved it, it was catchy, memorable and upbeat, the sort of soundtrack I love in cartoons. Overall, a very pleasant and enjoyable Tom and Jerry cartoon, that works well on re-watches. 9/10 Bethany Cox

    Cats: The Original Musical

    Mammy-Two-Shoes (dubbed to sound less 'racist' to appease the narrow-minded PC brigade in the version that I saw) goes out for the night, leaving Tom alone with the house to himself. He immediately invites a bunch of alley cats around for a party, causing no end of disturbance to Jerry, who doesn't take kindly to their music.

    After attempts at silencing them fail, Jerry is tortured and tied up, but he still has enough in him to call Mammy-Two-Shoes (the number he dials is nothing but 1-1-1-1-1) and get Tom in trouble.

    It's an average cartoon, which nothing to make it really stand out above the rest with the exception of two frames in which you actually get to see Mammy-Two-Shoes' face. Otherwise; bland.

    Loved The Music In Here!

    Anyone who loves some "swinging' jazz," will lose this cartoon.

    The maid is stepping out for a hot night on the town. I least I got that impression with the colorful dress, garter belt and the rest. I laughed when she tested her necklace, the one with green and red jewels. She hit the green and the word "go" lit up, red for "stop!"

    The moment she's out door, Tom rushes to the window, whistles to his buddies out near the garbage can and holds up a sign that reads, "O.K. For the Party." They yell "yippee" and literally fly through the window. In no time, the place is jumping. The hot jazz music in here, by the way, is fantastic! These cats know how to party!

    Unfortunately, the music is keeping the mouse awake and little Jerry turns out to be party pooper. The rest of the cartoon involves his attempts at silencing the music and the cats silencing him! There are excellent sight gags in this one....and some justice at the very end.

    Tom Takes Advantage of Mammy Two Shoes' Absence and Throws a Party at Her House!

    Tom and Jerry are my Favorite Cartoon of All Life, They have Excellent Shorts and this is one of them, Saturday Evening Puss I remember seeing it on Television in a Morning and it was excellent! I saw it again recently and it is so good as I remembered!.

    Making a Cartoon about a Party is an Original Idea at this point of Tom and Jerry, in addition to Iconic characters such as Butch and the Orange Cat, this is a Tom and Jerry cartoon of Short duration with only 6 Minutes with 30 Seconds but Those 6 minutes are worth it!.

    One of its positive points is the appearance of the Other Cats like Butch and the Orange Cat, which are excellent characters that make the cartoon laugh!.

    The Animation is still beautiful and too fluid, the Backgrounds look exquisite as well as the Objects like the Piano which looks very Realistic and Detailed.

    Scott Bradley, as always, provides quality music that fits perfectly into the atmosphere of a party!.

    The Voice Acting is Top Notch and it shows in how Well Acted Mammy Two Shoes is!.

    The sound effects as always are Decent and remain in the Atmosphere.

    In itself, Saturday Evening Puss is a Great Cartoon that has a fast pace and is excellently managed, it has great scenes like Tom delivering food to his Colleagues or the End with Jerry getting a Counterproductive Victory, for everything I said earlier Saturday Evening Puss gets a 9!

    So far, my favorite Tom and Jerry episode

    Out of all of the Tom and Jerry episodes I see, this is my favorite of them all. This is, to start off, a great episode. I love the music and all the voices in this one. The plot is good as well: Tom's owner is out so Tom throws a party in his house and Jerry tries to stop it. I also love the part where Jerry calls Tom's owner and tells her about the party, and she comes home furious. The best/funniest part of that scene is where she throws Tom and the cats out of the house, and they form a totem pole. I laugh so hard every time I see that part. Overall, I recommend this cartoon to all Tom and Jerry fans, whether they've seen it before or not.

    • Trivia
      You can see Mammy Two-Shoes' face for two frames as she runs back to the house.
    • Goofs
      When the piano-playing cat slides Jerry down the piano, he is sliding Jerry from the right of the keyboard to the left of the keyboard (high notes to low notes). However, the sound coming from the piano appears to be the opposite of what was showing (i.e. low notes to high notes).
    • Quotes

      [Jerry rings Mammy Two-Shoes while she is playing her bridge game]

      Mammy Two-Shoes: [cheerily] Hello? Yes, this is the Lucky Seven Saturday Night Bridge Club. Who? This is her.

      [short pause]

      Mammy Two-Shoes: [alarmed] A party? At *my* house? Ex-*cuse* me!

      [Mammy races home and crashes through the front entrance, taking the door with her. Tom opens the door]

      Mammy Two-Shoes: [angrily pointing her finger] Thomas!

      [Tom slams the door on Mammy, leaving her arm sticking through the door; Mammy promptly grabs Tom's tail and throws the cats out of the house]

      Mammy Two-Shoes: Doggone cats, mess up my whole evening!

      [Mammy sits down at the record player while Jerry prepares to sleep again]

      Mammy Two-Shoes: Well, might as well relax and play myself a little soft... soothing... *hot music*!

      [Jerry grumpily puts up with the record player again]

    • Alternate versions
      A version of this cartoon exists with Mammy Two-Shoes rotoscoped into a young white Irish woman that was done by the Sib Tower 12 Productions in the 1960s. Another version was made in the 1990s with the original footage, but with Mammy Two-Shoes' voice re-dubbed to sound less sterotypical and offensive. Not only that, there's a *third* version that exists which matches the 1960s rotoscoped version with the original Lilolian Randolph soundtrack (inexplicably matching the stereotypical Black voice to the image of the White lady).
