Spike & Tyke were spun-off from MGM's award winning Tom & Jerry series, but only got two shorts where the father & son bulldogs could really shine.
The last of these was "Scat Cats", released in the summer of 1957, though the copyright says 1956. After the bulldogs' owners leave for the evening, their pet cat, Butch, calls his friends over for a party, and, well........
No one's really sure who did the vocal effects for Tyke, though one source suggests co-producer-director-creator Bill Hanna did the honors, while Daws Butler did everything else. Must've seen this a dozen times on the cable back in the day.
Rating: A.
