Texas Tom

This "Tom and Jerry" short from 1950 called "Texas Tom" is one fun and memorable cartoon from the duo as the cat and mouse finds themselves in the lone star state. Both are on a ranch and guess what the cute cat Toots arrives and Tom being a cowboy has his eyes and sights set on her. However this lasso and rodeo to reel her in will be tougher than normal and expected with Jerry mouse around. Now enter the wild card of the story a mean horned charging bull is after Tom so the cat's love is cooled in the Texas heat. Overall good well done "Tom and Jerry" cartoon that stays in memory.

Down on the ranch, Tom is happily wiling away the hours tormenting Jerry when he finds himself distracted by the arrival of a sexy cowgirl cat. Tom sets about trying to impress the pretty puss, but Jerry isn't about to make things easy for his nemesis.

Texas Tom's unique Western setting provides plenty of opportunity for hilarity. There's a terrific scene in which Tom serenades the cowgirl cat by miming to a record, but runs into trouble when Jerry starts messing around with the speed control on the record player; Tom accidentally catching an angry bull with his lasso also leads to some very funny moments.

At the end of the cartoon, Jerry is the one that gets lucky with the girl, the cheeky mouse planting a big smacker on her lips (Jerry also snogged a cute female cat in the 1942 short Puss n' Toots—bizarre!!).

Tom and Jerry are in Texas as cowboys. When a beautiful female cat arrives Tom falls instantly in love and tries to be really cool. Of course Jerry makes sure he has not got a single chance.

This is one of the funniest cartoons from Tom and Jerry. Every joke is a good one and the songs used are quite good as well and perfect for the story. Simply great.

In this story Tom and Jerry are decked out in western wear as the setting is a Texas ranch. Tom as a cowboy is quite smooth, as demonstrated by his cigarette-rolling ability and flawless lip sync, while trying to impress cowgirl kitty. Jerry, of course, must thwart Tom's efforts to charm-in ways that provide lots of laughs. A bull gets involved, and as usual there is much trouble for Tom.

This is not one of my favorites, but by far still one of the better episodes.

What they were doing at a ranch is unknown, like many of the settings we see them in. But it really doesn't matter; they're enjoyable wherever we find them!

Apparently such a good episode that it can be found on both volumes 1 and 2 (disc 2 for each) of the Spotlight Collection DVD set.

Tom, now a cowboy (or cowcat) on a farm somewhere in Texas is involved in his usual pursuit of Jerry when a gorgeous girl cat arrives. He is immediately smitten and falls in love, hoping to impress her with a tough guy act, and serenading her with a mimed song.

Not taking too kindly to being treated as a slave in his love game, Jerry messes up Tom's plans and gets him on the wrong side of the farmyard bull. It's a pretty funny cartoon, especially when Jerry tampers with the speed of the record Tom is miming to, and there's quite a bit of inventive visual humor too. I just wish that Tom would get the girl for once.
