Air date reflects first showing on Cartoon Network in US; not shown on Teletoon.

Comprised of two 11-minute shorts, each episode features Tom the cat and Jerry the mouse plotting against each other - with Tom's determination matched only by Jerry's own cleverness in evading capture. But this time, the cartoon mayhem will not be limited to only Tom and Jerry's traditional suburban setting. In The Tom and Jerry Show, the title characters' nonstop game of cat and mouse will expand to also include more fantastic worlds, from a medieval castle to a mad scientist's lab.

Preserving the look, core characters and sensibility of the original theatrical shorts, The Tom and Jerry Show shines a brightly colored, high-definition lens on a never-ending battle that has set the standard for cartoon rivalries. After all, with a setup as elementary as a determined cat chasing a resourceful and mischievous mouse, the possibilities (and laughs) are endless."

Tom and Jerry are two of the most iconic characters on the planet," said Register, Warner Bros. Animation's executive vice-president of creative affairs. "While it's important we honor their great legacy, we don't want to keep them in the archives. We want to introduce them to a new generation of fans.

"As we have done with The Looney Tunes Show, The Tom and Jerry Show will bring Tom and Jerry into a contemporary environment and tell hilarious stories that kids and adults will love."

First announced in 2012 for the 2013 season, the show was pushed back to 2014.

This is the second Tom and Jerry television series produced in the 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio and the first to be animated in Adobe Flash.
