I clearly remember one sequence from Tom & Jerry I watched while waiting for a plane in London (I guess because of the violence it must be one of the originals?):

* The neighbor’s bulldog is chained up.

* Tom figures out how long the chain extends and draws a line on the ground there.

* Tom taunts the bulldog and the bulldog runs to the end of his chain.

* Tom uses the dog’s blurred biting and scratching motions to carve a bat out of a 2x4.

* Tom beats him over the head with the bat.

* Then Jerry secretly erases the line and redraws it closer to the dog.

* Tom taunts the dog again and this time the dog jumps right into his lap.

* Tom literally leaps out of his skin, which the dog holds like a coat and hands back to him.

If anyone knows the name of this episode I would be much obliged since it may be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen on television.
