In the early 1960s, some evil trolls at MGM decided to revive the Tom and Jerry series but wanted it done with practically no budget at all. So, the cartoons were farmed out to be done in Czechoslovakia by people that had hardly any notion of who the characters were. As a result, they didn't look all that much like Tom and Jerry and they acted nothing like the originals. Apparently, the staff hadn't really seen the cartoons before but that didn't stop them! While I have so far rated every other Czech Tom and Jerry a 1, this one gets a 2 because it is marginally better. However, considering how rotten the animation, sound and writing is of ALL these cartoons, this isn't saying much. Tom is out in the cold and Jerry, living it up in a penthouse apartment, invites up Tom--who then betrays Jerry's generosity. The idea originally came from several Warner Brothers' cartoons and this version does NOTHING to improve the original idea.
