The Tom and Jerry show debuted on CBS on September 25, 1965. A showcase for classic theatrical MGM cartoons, the show had a specially produced title sequence with varying scenarios to introduce the Tom and Jerry moniker. For our , here’s a spooky example, created by animation legend Chuck Jones. This was right around the time he produced-directed Dr Seuss’ How The Grinch Stole Christmas! also for MGM. (Interestingly, both Tom and Jerry and The Grinch are now owned by Warner Bros., which of course own all of the Chuck Jones-directed Looney Tunes cartoons.)
