On TV they were first renamed Dick and Larry, then put entirely on the shelf. Over the years the original Tom and Jerry drifted into obscurity. The last cartoon to star the original Tom and Jerry would be 1933вЂ™s THE PHANTOM ROCKET. Under Stallings, the Tom and Jerry series seemed to lose much of its earlier charm. In 1933, Van Beuren fired Foster and promoted Stallings to his position. In A SWISS TRICK, eating too much swiss cheese causes our heroes to grow holes in their bodies. In PIANO TOONERS, Jerry flushes a humanized вЂњsour noteвЂќ down the toilet. Old houses hid evil dancing skeletons seas concealed fish rabbis dressed in spy-drag black. Inanimate objects came to life two singers could share a single mouth. Van Beuren was second only to Fleischer in depicting surreal, impossible feats on screen Tom, Jerry, and their surroundings did it all. As the series progressed, though, the films became increasingly bawdy, boozy and bizarre. The first Tom and Jerry short was 1931вЂ™s WOT A NIGHT, similar in style to the earlier cat and dog cartoons. By mid-1932, though, they were streamlined to incorporate an increasingly rubbery graphical style. The turning point came only when Foster was joined by New York artists George Stallings and George Rufle - who brought with them the idea of turning the cat and dog into humans.ДЄt first, Tom and Jerry - the pairвЂ™s new name - were drawn in a literal style that directly recalled Mutt and Jeff. A better Foster decision was to develop a Mutt and Jeff-like cat and dog pair, but success still eluded Van Beuren. TerryвЂ™s directorial replacement, John Foster, first singled out a pair of mice, but their resemblance to DisneyвЂ™s Mickey was too close for comfort. Van Beuren, whoвЂ™d lost Paul Terry and other creative staffers in 1929, needed breakthrough cartoon characters to put his studio on the map.

Van BeurenвЂ™s New York studio had another pair of stars named Tom and Jerry.
