Page "Tom and Jerry" Paragraph 2

Beginning in 1960, in addition to the original 114 Hanna-Barbera cartoons, MGM had new shorts produced by Rembrandt Films, led by Gene Deitch in Eastern Europe.

Production of Tom and Jerry shorts returned to Hollywood under Chuck Jones's Sib-Tower 12 Productions in 1963 ; this series lasted until 1967, making it a total of 161 shorts.

The cat and mouse stars later resurfaced in television cartoons produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions and Filmation Studios during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s ; a feature film, Tom and Jerry: The Movie, in 1992 ( released domestically in 1993 ); and in 2001, their first made-for TV short, Tom and Jerry: The Mansion Cat for Boomerang.

The most recent Tom and Jerry theatrical short The Karate Guard ( 2005 ), was written and co-directed by Barbera.
