Select cartoons from this show are often mixed in with other ''Tom and Jerry'' series that play on Creator/CartoonNetwork and Boomerang.

''The Tom and Jerry Show'' is just what it sounds like: a TV show based on MGM's classic ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' cartoons, made by HannaBarbera, the company whose owners created the franchise.

The show, which originally aired on Creator/{{ABC}}, was first aired together with ''TheGreatGrapeApe''. It starred Tom and Jerry, now made friends, (or at least {{Friendly Rival|ry}}s), as they competed in sports, solved mysteries, ran from villains or did whatever else made {{hilarity ensue|s}}.

Needless to say, fans were not pleased (though it still has its followers) and the show only ran two seasons (only one of which was new episodes) before being sent to reruns. Often mixed in with other ''Tom and Jerry'' series (such as on Creator/CartoonNetwork and Boomerang).

Another show with the title was made in 2014 and aired on ''Cartoon Network'' coming on the heels of 2006's ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerryTales''. Unlike previous examples, this show was made with AdobeFlash but otherwise follows the usual formula of the series.
