70 Sylvester


First  watched  :  Uncertain

Sylvester  was  Looney  Tunes' answer  to  Tom  and  Jerry ; he  was  originally  to  be  called  Thomas  but  the  suits  got  cold  feet  about  potential  legal  trouble. The  main  difference  between  Sylvester  and  Tom  was  that  the  former  could  vocalise  his  frustrations  and  his  antagonists  Tweety  Bird  and  Speedy  Gonzales  could  taunt  him. He  later  appeared  with  Porky  Pig  in  some  cartoons  where  he  was  more  of  a  Scooby  Doo  cowardly  characte  but  I'm  not  sure  I  saw  any  of  those.
