Hanna-Barbera’s Tom & Jerry/Grape Ape Show originally ran Saturday mornings on ABC from September, 1975 to September, 1976. Grape Ape was a hot new property and a large batch of Tom & Jerry cartoons were also produced for the series. No full-animation theatrical shorts for the cat and mouse this time around. These cartoons were made strictly for television – a first for the venerable duo.
Have a happy Funshine Friday!
