One of my standout memories from childhood will always be watching classic Tom and Jerry with my Dad and Grandpa... It's something all 3 of us could agree on... and with them getting older and older, i still look back on these shorts as one of the best times of my life.

In their case, the iconic sounds aren't any screams. It's the other sound effects, namely the sound of Coyote falling down a cliff, or those beautiful juicy KABOOM's whenever a TNT stick detonates on his face.

Tom & Jerry have been the reason why I love animation and drawing. I have never once in day of my life stopped working on my art and animation skills.

I loved Jerry's cousin episode not to mention the 3 musketeers episodes. Not to mention the elephants episodes they've always been fun to watch

My favorite part of Mouse Trouble was when Jerry pokes pins on the box Tom was hiding in. Tom’s screens and Jerry’s reaction after opening the box was freaking hilarious! 😂

I will say my personal favorite Tom and Jerry cartoon has to be Yankee Doodle Mouse. It was the first cartoon I’ve ever watched and I still have a soft spot for it to this very day. The war esthetic with kitchen utensils and firecrackers is a great concept and it works so well. It also shows the theory that Tom and Jerry were named after the British and Germans

Name a more iconic duo? I’ve got a couple: Scooby and Shaggy Mario and Luigi

Tom and Jerry will always be a classic childhood cartoon for me.

I think my personal favorite of the ones with Jerry and Tuffy/Nibbles as musketeers is the one where Jerry has a sweetheart and sends Tuffy/Nibbles (I remember him having the name Nibbles in at least one Tom and Jerry short and it's always stuck with me) to take a letter to her, he does but Tom is always trying to fight him as he goes and then he has to take the reply back to Jerry while Jerry NEVER notices that each time he leaves and comes back the poor boy is beat to hell and back. It ends with the girl breaking up with Jerry via note, Jerry getting pissed, pulling out a picture of ANOTHER sweetheart he has, having Tuffy/Nibbles take a note to her and Tom trying to yet again fight him, going "En guard!" 3 times and leaping back to get in his way each time...Tuffy/Nibbles' response? "En guard, En Guard, EN GUARD! Phooey!" and then marching off to deliver the note pissed as all hell and Tom just look at him dumbfounded as he walks into the distance.

I am a Gen Z, but hands down ... Tom & Jerry take the cake as the most iconic duo. Hell, they are the original duo! (Prove Me Wrong!).

The most iconic duo I can think of? Batman & Robin

I don't know the name of the episode, but my favorite has to be the one where Tom is trying to woo the girl cat by singing to her and using the cello. I think about the song all the time, the jokes were great, and I love the ending.

Better yet, Nate, Disshovelled Tom is you coming back inside after three hours shoveling and salting the driveway and sidewalk in the morning, and Jerry is one of your nephews caught smucking about, even though you kindly asked him to help you out whenever he got up hours ago

Ive seen the original tom and jerry episodes it was so funny to watch it as a kid and i wasn't born until 2001 but they played the old ones on a channel called boomerang it showcased old classic cartoons that they didn't play no more on the other cartoon channles

One of my favorite Tom and Jerry episodes is Million Dollar Puss. Not only is it funny, with all the crap Jerry puts Tom through and Tom having to restrain himself. But in my opinion has the funniest ending line to a Tom and Jerry Cartoon. The whole premise is that Tom wins a million dollars but he can't hurt even a mouse. Jerry takes fully advantage and we're waiting for him to crack...when he does it's BEAUTIFUL having to stop mid rant and go "Gee, I'm throwing away a million dollars...BUT I"M HAPPY!" and just goes bananas. It's a very rare Tom,, the build up is beautiful, and that ending crack is so funny.

What’s weird about Mammy Two Shoes is I vividly remember her versions of the cartoons still airing in the U.K. when I was growing up in the 2000’s. So much so I remember vividly an ad Boomerang did where they remixed together different versions of her saying “Thomas, there’s a mouse in the house” with the impact sounds of different scenes of Tom getting injured as the backing track

I will say my favorite Tom & Jerry moment is the episode of the elephant that nate mentioned but at the end when both the baby and mother elephant looked like mice and Tom pointed the gun at jerry then the baby then this 20 foot 5 tonne mouse jumps out and Tom looses it and runs away yelling like a mad man fucking hilarious.

Thought he meant cartoon wise.

A more iconic duo? Bud Abbott and Lou Costello. The pair did a radio show, a tv show, and a whooping 40 movies together, with a dozen other celebrity actors. They were memorialized in the Baseball Hall of Fame for their most famous skit "Who's on First?" despite neither being professionally involved in baseball. So impactful in the genre of comedy they; appeared in early looney tunes, were given homage in talk shows decades later, and still get referenced in movies (like Arrival). Now of course not every movie was a hit, their early films relied on outside musical talent and their later films reused skits, but there's bound to be one for anybody.

19:14 pretty sure that one is Jerry and Jumbo, not one of my absolute favorites, but I LOVE the whole door opening and closing scene SO much

@WraythSkitzofrenik

I love when Jerry, then Jumbo, then his mom jump out dressed as mice and Tom runs off in hysterical laughter.

I don't know if you heard this, but Home Alone has been selected to be preserved at the US Library of Congress by the National Film Registry. That and The Nightmare Before Christmas.

22:35 I feel the same. If I ever saw someone trying to do that, I'd be in jail for attempted murder. This is why I make sure my fur baby is spoiled rotten and given everything she both needs AND wants!!! And at 16:03, My dear Renegade, I believe that's pretty much EVERYBODY'S face after shoveling snow! 😆😆😆😆

I like the one with Tom's cousin. The ending is just brilliant.

“Only to get his head stuck in Jerry’s hole” The absolute WHIPLASH i experienced looking back at my phone 😂

Tom & Jerry shorts at one point won an Oscar four years in row, from 1943 to 1946.

I think the SpongeBob episode "Krabs a la Mode" was inspired by the Tom and Jerry short "Mice Follies", they have too many similarities for that *not* to be the case

Number 10 is the proof why Tom sometimes felt remorse when was too rough with Jerry, but Jerry never felt the same thing about Tom when the poor guy literally was suffering.

6:38 Misconception there, Nate. Tom was only called "Jasper" in the first short, "Puss Gets the Boot" [1940]. Starting with the second short, "The Midnight Snack" [1941], that's when the maid called him "Thomas", and it stayed that way for the next 11 years afterwards, until the maid's final appearance in the short, "Push-Button Kitty" [1952]. And as for the redubbed versions made in the 90's by Turner, the redub of Puss Gets the Boot still calls him "Jasper", while in the others, he was called "Thomas", so they didn't change that like you thought they did. The most they did to the original dialogue was change some words to more "proper" English.

Tom and Jerry was a huge highlight of my childhood and it continues to hold up throughout the generations 😎.

Aside from Tom & Jerry my favorite animated duos are Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner, Rick and Morty, Pinky and The Brain, Rocky and Bullwinkle, Snoopy and Woodstock, Ren and Stimpy, Bender and Philip J. Fry, and Eric Cartman and Kyle Broflovski. Honorable mentions would be Brian and Stewie Griffin, SpongeBob and Patrick, Beavis and Butthead, Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble, and Batman and Robin from BTAS circa 1992-1995.

This was a great list by Doug and as of the latest q and a stream (11-23) he said he is still having fatigue and brainfog from the shingles.

Oh man this is the pure and funnier comedic cartoon I ever seen in my life.

18:43 that'd be the 'Jerry and Jumbo' ep from 1953. which also has the same title card as the one for 1950's 'Jerry and the Lion'.

That one short where Tom calls Butch to deal with Jerry has gotten the best laugh out of my eldest brother, particularly the moment when the wall falls on Butch's fingers after Jerry slams Tom's foot with a hammer. That scream is hilarious

This show is one of the rare show that gets my mom laughing

26:34 nate, i think the billiards one you are refering to i believe is "Cue Ball Cat" THAT one's HILLARIOUS!

I always enjoyed the episodes when Tom and Jerry play musketeer-like roles.

I would add two more to the runners up that are ones I particularly enjoy: the one where Jerry’s uncle visits before his performance on tv and constantly pulls Tom’s whiskers to replace his broken guitar strings; and the one in Spain where Tom is a world renowned mouse catcher and Jerry is El Magnifico 😂

By far my favourite Tom & Jerry episode is (Down Beat Bear) Everytime when Jerry turns the music turns on, the bear always tries to dance with Tom while Tom is trying fighting Jerry & Dial the Police for the reward. Its So FUNNY!

im surprised the pool table one wasnt here, that one is one of my favorites

36:25 unfortunately they did that to the Aunt Jemima and changed it to Pear Milling Company, its very sad.

Toms face after coming out of the basement is a face of someone who is done with someone’s shit.

I don't know if this counts as a duo because of, who they are but 1 ironic duo to me is catdog

The years these cartoons listed were released in 1952, 1941, 1947, 1951, 1954, 1950, 1949, 1945, 1947, 1950, and 1944

10:00 i'm getting eerie similar feels to a Disney mickey mouse short called "The Worm Turns".

Tom and Jerry beefed for years without words. It was just on sight. Sure, Wile E Coyote and the Roadrunner did beef, but it was mostly just the coyote and the roadrunner was endured it for the LOL's 😂😂

As a Hungarian, I am proud that we also got a role in Tom and Jerry with my music 😊🇭🇺

I definitely like all of his choices in this video but I was very surprised none of the Chuck Jones cartoons of Tom and Jerry were on this list as there are a bunch of great Tom and Jerry cartoons by Chuck Jones that I personally would have liked to have seen on this list. But I will let that slide as all the cartoons he showed slash named were all great cartoons as well

Batman and Robin was the first one to pop into my head Tom and Jerry are still icons

When I saw The Kittens in The Bag, I thought it was The Kittens from The Other Episode which I think Three Kittens are Bullied both Tom and Jerry and they team up to get them out (I think they even the same colours as well)

the 'HELP! GOD! LET ME OUT!' funny bit was from 1952's Cruise Cat.

the Most Iconic duo will be John Madden and Pat summerall, J.R. Jim Ross and Jerry the King Lawler.....Stone Cold and Mr. McMahon, AND Nate and Micah.

Goku and vegeta, ben 10 and gwen, optimus prima and bumblebee............3h later......Marion and Luigi, Should I go on?

Iconic duos Batman and Robin, Mario and Luigi, Shrek and Donkey

The two musketeers had one of the darkest endings in the entire show perhaps except the final episode

Even to this day I still laugh at the older Tom and Jerry episodes.

I have analog so we get MeTV from our local FOX station and they play cartoons every Saturday morning. It's Popeye and Pink Panther (with some other Fleischer and UA cartoons) from 5-6, Tom and Jerry (along with other Tex Avery and Harmon-Ising MGM cartoons) from 6-7, Woody Woodpecker (and other Universal cartoons) from 7-8, and Looney Tunes from 8-9.

Batman and Robin, Mario and Luigi, Sonic and Tails, and Goku and Vegeta are all very iconic duos in my opinion.

22:03 disturbing, yes, but i learned this from a rap critic vid reviewing the censored eleven: actually, kitten drowning was a thing lots of people used to do to control the cat population. heck, an oscar-winning disney pluto cartoon short called 'lend a paw' opens with a nearly drowned kitten in a bag.

Geographically speaking, I was thinking of Tom and Jerry being either from Pennsylvania or New Jersey, if they're close to New York.

I LOVE Jerry and Jumbo! One of my favorite episodes. He should've put the Zoot Cat though. I do agree with Whoopi's stance on Mammy. I love her, personally. Eh, the modern ones have their moments. Even the first movie. Any time they're not talking or helping the girl is enjoyable.

OG Tom and Jerry was my childhood

Did see these mentioned in the comments so I show them love 1. Pebbles & Bamm Bamm 2.Cow & Chicken 🐓 3.Dexter & Dee Dee 4. Popeye & Olive Oil

11. I remember doing a cringy dub of this episode where Tom was a literal vampire. 10. Always a favorite, no matter what time of year it is. 9. I actually find this one disturbing. It could be on Dark Toons 8. I think this is my favorite of the "Jerry need help" episodes. I wish they brought Muscles back in the original show. 7. I saw this short way before I saw Sleeping Beauty, so eat that, Disney. XD 6. This one is very sweet and cute. And it's nice to see Tom show concern for Jerry as well. 5. This one disturbed me when I was younger. At least it was a dream. Also, I love Jerry's utter confusion at the end. 4. I love the music and scenery in this one. A short, but sweet story. 3. Another classic. The only thing Rhapsody Rabbit has over it is that Bugs mouths the M word at the end. But T&J did that joke too, in another short. And did it better. 2. I actually haven't seen this one in years. It was on a disc I lost. I need to find it again. 1. Honestly, this one is funny, but I also find it profoundly disturbing. Besides the infamous "Don't You Believe It" moment (which is actually a reference to another old TV show). The fact that Tom keeps the injuries he acquires, he slowly loses his mind over the course of the episode, and he freaking DIES at the end, it feels like a creepypasta. Although, I will admit, the part where he bursts through the ceiling is great. I always imagine someone living upstairs and randomly seeing him in their floor. XD

Buggs Bunny and Daffy Duck, The Two Ronnies, Morcambe and Wise, Dennis the Menace and Gnasher, Dastardly and Muttley

Batman & Robin are an iconic duo, I submit them for consideration.

Wile E coyote and the roadrunner shaggy and Scooby Doo bugs bunny and Daffy duck and Tom and Jerry are some of the greats

Batman and Robin, Mario and Luigi, peanut butter and jelly.

List of Iconic duos for me: Ren and Stimpy Rick and Morty Timon and Pumbaa Beavis and Butt-Head

Whenever I used to sleep over at my cousins I would play boomerang while I slept but if your curious what is a more iconic duo well I can name a good handful Scooby Doo and gang (and every other mystery group) The super pets (which was a thing) SWAT Kats (which was more of a short then a full show) Every looney Tunes and their emery The Flintstones Tom and Jerry (of course) Batman and Robin (duh) (I’m just going to stop because I’m starting to become brain dead trying to remember them all but I do wanna call attention to this to see how many people remember this one episode where every mystery met each other like all of them I’m not joking either I clearly remember Scooby Doo and gang meeting all the other mystery gangs that are out there it was pretty weird um anyways I said what I wanted to so um yeah)
