Most of the Short Films of the Chuck Jones era are complete Masterpieces, among several of his Best shorts are, O Solar Meow, The Cat Above and The Mouse Below and Snowbody Loves me, this one falls into the category of Misfortunes, it does not present anything original, It's about Tom watching a compilation of scenes (Obviously Stock Footage) from his old adventures in the Hanna Barbera era (Even the scene where he dies in The Heavenling Puss, isn't that supposed to be a dream?) While making notes , and ends with a recycled "Tom Designs" ending.
It's not the best we can say, but at best it's better than the "Clip-Shows" made by Depatie-Freleng Enterprises in the mid-70s, The scenes feature revamped Music and Filters applied, Dean's music Elliot (which is pretty decent) doesn't really fit because Bradley's Orchestral Tone was the Original in those scenes and Bill Lava's Jazz Style doesn't fit.
It's really not very good, but compared to the Awful Tom and Jerry cartoons produced by Filmation in the 80s, this is a masterpiece.
