| Tom & Jerry Kids | comment |
Tom & Jerry Kids was one of the countless TV revivals of the classic Tom and Jerry shorts.Airing from 1990 to 1994 on Fox Kids, this newly produced 65-Episode Cartoon, with Three Shorts to each episode, was much closer to the tried and true formula of the famous cat and mouse duo than, say, The Tom and Jerry Show, though the slapstick was still toned down compared to the original shorts. There were also shorts starring classic Tom and Jerry co-stars Spike and Tyke, and Tex Avery's Droopy character (along with his son Dripple), the latter of which spun off into its own series, Droopy, Master Detective.Additionally, different original characters were brought into the show, such as Slowpoke Antonio and Bernie the Swallow, and even receiving their own separate segments.Now has a character sheet that is currently under construction. | |

| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_15b2cab3 | comment |
Tempting Fate: Done three times in "High Speed Hounds" (and fell for all three times): "If I cheated, let a piano fall on me!" "What I meant to say was, may a safe fall on me!" "What I really meant was, if I cheated, may a house fall on me!" | |

Artistic License – Biology | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_18aff462 | comment |
Artistic License – Biology: In "Double 'O' Droopy". Although it is true that oysters do produce pearls when irritated, they only do so when a foreign substance enters the shell, not when someone tries to annoy them. In other words, they only make pearls when they are irritated physically, not emotionally. | |

Painted Tunnel, Real Train: Spoofed in a Droopy short with a car race, where the villain McWolf takes advantage of this trope by having Droopy drive into a sign and shoving said sign off a cliff (the wolf earlier crashed into a painted tunnel). | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: In the episode "Yo Ho Ho... Bub", when Miss Vavoom is introduced, her walk animation resembles that of Red in the ending of the Tex Avery cartoon "The Shooting of Dan McGoo". "Droopo: First Bloodhound" has McWolf escape from a high-security prison just like in Dumb-Hounded, complete with the searchlight finding him and scaring him, but unlike the original short in which he walks up the wall, he lifts the wall upward and escapes underneath it. | |

Heart Beats out of Chest: In "The Vermin," Jerry invokes this after the titular band's female member uses her feminine wiles to convince him to join the band. In "Battered Up", McWolf experiences this when he sees Miss Vavoom for the first time. Even his heart beats for him. | |

Evolving Credits | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_3297cfbb | comment |
Evolving Credits: The first and second seasons had the show's logo appear thematically over a city and shows clips of Tom, Jerry and their co-stars doing about their lives, ending with the same logo. The Season 3 and 4 opening changes this radically to have Tom chase Jerry around a construction site, passing their co-stars as the show's logo is being built, and it ends with the full cast rising on a girder and the same logo being displayed over the city. | |

Butt-Monkey | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_47fea76b | comment |
Butt-Monkey: Tom quite frequently receives more of a beating than any other characters in any given cartoon, and usually with less justification. McWolf in "Scrapheap Symphony". He's not doing anything villainous, being just the orchestra conductor. Still the cast ends up ignoring, mocking or hurting him anyway. | |

Cheaters Never Prosper | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_72d30083 | comment |
Cheaters Never Prosper: Played straight many times in the Droopy and Dripple shorts, but there are a few exceptions: Double subverted in "High Speed Hounds", in which McWolf actually gets first place, but still pays for it. Subverted in "Fallen Archers". Despite McWolf and his son using cheating methods to try to win, no one actually wins at the end; Dripple and Stinky Jr. just go fishing while the two fathersnote Droopy and McWolf watch them and laugh. | |

Animation Bump: The episodes animated by Fil-Cartoons compared to the ones by Wang. The animation in general compared to the previous Tom and Jerry Incarnations and other Hanna-Barbera cartoons.

A Day in the Limelight | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_9c8701b5 | comment |
A Day in the Limelight: As the show progressed, much of the secondary cast of characters began starring in their own independent shorts starting in the second season: The Urfo (who may or may not be the same character who appears in the first season, but redesigned and capable of speaking) co-stars "The Little Thinker" with his new owner, a little boy named Buzz. Wild Mouse (now also redesigned) gets "Wild Mouse II" and "Hunter Pierre". His appearances with Tom also count, as Jerry is absent in most of these shorts. Slowpoke Antonio has "Just Rambling Along" and "Rootin' Tootin' Slowpoke". Swampy Fox (in his only appearance on the show) and The Gator Brothers (from "Wild Mouse II") are the stars of "Cajun Gumbo". Bernie the Swallow, and by extension Kyle and Clyde, stars in "Swallow The Swallow" and "Grab That Bird." Kyle The Cat also has the short "Pound Hound" in season three. The Mouse Scouts (without Jerry) are the central focus of "Roughing It", the final segment of the third season. Blast-Off Buzzard and Crazy Legs Snake from CB Bears, now able to speak, are the highlights of "Destructive Construction" and "Abusement Park". Calaboose Cal had "The Mouth Is Quicker Than The Eye" and "Termite Terminator" both from the fourth season, with the latter being the last short that stars a character other than Tom & Jerry, Droopy & Dripple or Spike & Tyke in the lead role . | |

Karma Houdini | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: "Stunt Cat" had a movie director firing a stuck-up actor and replacing him with Tom. The actor teams up with Jerry to sabotage Tom and get him fired. They succeed and the actor gets his job back, even though Tom did nothing wrong. The babysitter in "Tom the Babysitter" who never receives any of punishment for constantly talking to her friend on the phone instead of doing her job. Spike spends the entirety of "Chumpy Chums" bullying Tom and Jerry (who, keep in mind, are children) into behaving the way he wants them to, and receives no punishment for it (unless you count being forced to kiss Tom so that Tyke doesn't realize that he's a hypocrite who doesn't practise what he preaches). | |

Smooch of Victory: Miss Vavoom kisses Droopy or Dripple in this fashion very often in their shorts. | |

The Pen Is Mightier | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_c58daf16 | comment |
The Pen Is Mightier: In "Droopio and Juliet", McWolf once effortlessly parried Droopy's sword attacks with a quill pen, boasting, "The pen is mightier than the sword!" Droopy nonchalantly countered by chucking a water balloon at him. | |

"Wanted!" Poster | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_cd336741 | comment |
"Wanted!" Poster: Played for laughs in "Foreign Legion Frenzy". Instead of the usual "Dead or Alive", it's "Alive or Otherwise"note again another nod to Northwest Hounded Police, with "Alive" written in big, red letters. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Basically Tom and Jerry with pulled punches. Well, it was The '90s, after all. Lampshaded in one instance where it looks like McWolf is shooting at Droopy and Dripple only to reveal he's physically tossing bullets at them, bemoaning how stupid it looks when he's not allowed to use a gun. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In "Gator, Baiter", a wrestling gator is fed up of being humiliated by other wrestlers that can break the rules, so he decides to leave. Jerry helps him return to his swamp while avoiding his ex-manager and opponent AND in return protecting Jerry from Tom. | |

Whole-Plot Reference | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_e303d198 | comment |
Whole-Plot Reference: The episode "Muscle Beach Droopy" is an almost beat-by-beat retelling of the old Pink Panther episode "Come On In! The Water's Pink", in which the titular character uses a bunch of balloon tricks to impress girls on the beach, at the expense of a bodybuilder. Really, the only major difference is that Droopy's episode has dialogue. | |

Monster of the Week | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_e9604359 | comment |
Monster of the Week: Aside from McWolf, the only recurring villain of the Droopy and Dripple shorts, there are a lot of one-short villains that don't ever make an appearance in later episodes ever again. (One exception is the Yolker, who appeared again in Droopy, Master Detective, but as a human in a chicken costume instead.) | |

Bound and Gagged | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_eb28ab57 | comment |
Bound and Gagged: Dripple is on trial in "Droopy Law" with Miss Vavoom as his public defender and McWolf as the injured party. Vavoom has a tape proving that Dripple is innocent. However, before she can play it, McWolf grabs her, runs out of the courtroom (with fighting noises being heard afterwards), and comes back without her, coming up with an excuse for her absence before playing his tape. Soon after, Vavoom returns in the courtroom, tied up, gagged, and blindfolded, hopping until she arrives next to Dripple, who unties her before she plays her tape. | |

Distracted by the Sexy | |
| Tom & Jerry Kids / int_f10d3363 | comment |
Distracted by the Sexy: Happens several times in the Droopy and Dripple shorts. In "Return of the Chubby Man" Droopy is so distracted by Miss Vavoom's legs he fails to see the jade poodle even when she swings it right in front of his eyes. In "Order in the Volleyball Court", Droopy had to drag Dripple away when he was all but hypnotised by some volleyball cheerleaders. | |

Twin Switch: In "Dakota Droopy & the Great Train Robbery" McWolf keeps on throwing Droopy and Dripple off a train but more of them keep showing up. It turns out Droopy's all identical family was aboard the train. As a nod to Northwest Hounded Police, "Super Droop and Dripple Boy Meet the Yolker", "Foreign Legion Frenzy", and "Dirty Droopy" also end up showing an army of Droopy clones. | |

Butt Sticker: Frequently: "Two Stepping Tom" when the elephant singer is hanging on a beam he falls on Tom. "Circus Antics" after Tundo the elephant introduces his family to Jerry, he asks where Tom is. And it is revealed that he's stuck to his butt. "Swallow the Swallow" after Bernie the Swallow tossed Clyde off of his birdhouse, Clyde falls and lands on Kyle. | |
