Bad Ol ' Putty Tat is a 1949 Merrie Melodies animated cartoon released by Warner Bros. starring Tweety and directed by Friz Freleng . Tweety must evade the titular puddy tat , Sylvester the Cat , who is once again in hot pursuit of Tweety , just so that he can eat him for his own personal snack . It provides an anomaly in the Sylvester & Tweety pairings : In this one , Tweety provides almost all the dialogue , and then mainly to the audience . Tweety 's voice is performed by Mel Blanc , who also screams out Sylvester 's pain in mid-film . The story was written by Tedd Pierce ; he and fellow Warner Bros. cartoon writer Michael Maltese appear in caricature form as a pair of badminton players .
Tweety is a yellow canary in the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of animated cartoons . The name Tweety is a play on words , as it originally meant sweetie , along with tweet being an English onomatopoeia for the sounds of birds . His characteristics are based on Red Skelton 's famous Mean Widdle Kid . Tweety appeared in 46 cartoons during the golden age .
Sylvester is a fictional character , a three-time Academy Award-winning anthropomorphic Tuxedo cat in the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons . Most of his appearances have him often chasing Tweety , Speedy Gonzales , or Hippety Hopper . Sylvester appeared in 103 cartoons in the golden age of American animation , only behind Bugs Bunny , Porky Pig , and Daffy Duck . Three of his cartoons won Academy Awards , the most for any starring Looney Tunes character : they are Tweetie Pie , Speedy Gonzales , and Birds Anonymous .
Isadore Friz Freleng ( August 21 , 1906 - May 26 , 1995 ) , often credited as I. Freleng , was an American animator , cartoonist , director , producer , and composer known for his work at Warner Bros. Cartoons on the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons . He introduced and/or developed several of the studio 's biggest stars , including Bugs Bunny , Porky Pig , Tweety , Sylvester the Cat , Yosemite Sam ( to whom he was said to bear more than a passing resemblance ) , and Speedy Gonzales . The senior director at Warners ' Termite Terrace studio , Freleng directed more cartoons than any other director in the studio ( a total of 266 ) , and is also the most honored of the Warner directors , having won five Academy Awards and three Emmy Awards [ disputed - discuss ] . After Warners closed down the animation studio in 1963 , Freleng and business partner David H. DePatie founded DePatie-Freleng Enterprises , which produced cartoons ( including The Pink Panther Show ) , feature film title sequences , and Saturday-morning cartoons through the early 1980s . The nickname Friz came from his friend , Hugh Harman , who initially nicknamed him Congressman Frizby after a fictional senator who appeared in satirical pieces in the Los Angeles Examiner . Over time , this shortened to Friz .
All a Bir-r-r-d is a Warner Bros. Looney Tunes cartoon released in 1950 , featuring Tweety , Sylvester and an unnamed bulldog , who would later become known as Hector the Bulldog . It was written by Tedd Pierce and directed by Isadore Friz Freleng . The title is an adaptation of the familiar train conductor 's call , All aboard ! The instrumental theme used to underscore the motion of the train is On the 5:15 .
Hector the Bulldog is an animated cartoon character in the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons . Hector is a muscle-bound bulldog with gray fur ( except in A Street Cat Named Sylvester and Greedy for Tweety , where his fur is yellowish ) and walks pigeon-toed . His face bears a perpetual scowl between two immense jowls . He usually wears a black collar with silver studs .
Room and Bird is a 1951 Merrie Melodies animated short featuring Sylvester and Tweety .
Emma Webster , better known as Granny , is a Warner Bros. Cartoons character created by Friz Freleng , best known from Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies animated shorts of the 1950s and 1960s . She is the owner of Tweety ( and more often than not , Sylvester and Hector ) . Her voice was first provided by Bea Benaderet from 1950 through 1955 , then by June Foray for almost 60 years .
Tweet Tweet Tweety is a 1951 Looney Tunes ( reissued as a 1960 Blue Ribbon Merrie Melodies ) animated short featuring Sylvester and Tweety .
Gift Wrapped is a 1952 Warner Bros. Looney Tunes animated cartoon directed by Friz Freleng ( credited as I. Freleng ) , originally released on February 16 , 1952 . Later reissued by Warner Bros. under the Blue Ribbon Merrie Melodies series in 1960 , Gift Wrapped is available on DVD as a part of Looney Tunes Golden Collection : Volume 2 and Looney Tunes Platinum Collection : Volume 2 .
Ai n't She Tweet is a Looney Tunes ( reissued as a Blue Ribbon Merrie Melodies in 1961 ) cartoon animated short starring Tweety and Sylvester . Released June 21 , 1952 , the cartoon is directed by Friz Freleng . The title is a play on the song Ai n't She Sweet .
A Bird in a Guilty Cage is a 1952 Looney Tunes animated short featuring Sylvester and Tweety . The title is a pun on the song A Bird in a Gilded Cage .
Snow Business is a Looney Tunes cartoon released in 1953 directed by Friz Freleng starring Sylvester and Tweety . :0:32 This episode 's title is a pun on Show Business .
Tweetie Pie is a 1947 Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by Friz Freleng . Tweetie Pie was the first pairing of Sylvester and Tweety and won the Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film , breaking Tom and Jerry 's streak of four consecutive wins on the category .
Kitty Kornered is a 1946 Looney Tunes cartoon , directed by Robert Clampett , produced by Edward Selzer and released by Warner Bros. Pictures . Considered among Clampett 's best and wackiest films , Kitty Kornered was Clampett 's final cartoon featuring longtime favorite Porky Pig ( although he made a cameo in Clampett 's next cartoon The Great Piggy Bank Robbery as a streetcar driver ) , and marks the only appearance of the ( then unnamed ) Sylvester the cat in a Clampett-directed cartoon and only one of two times Sylvester spoke in a Porky Pig cartoon . It was also the first appearance of Sylvester in the Looney Tunes series . Also , this is the only cartoon where Sylvester has yellow eyes and a black nose . This is the first Looney Tunes cartoon to have the red and blue rings as well as the written out That 's all Folks ! at the closing rings . The Merrie Melodies music is heard at the end though . Porky and Sylvester would later be paired in a trio of shorts directed by Chuck Jones : Scaredy Cat , Claws for Alarm , and Jumpin ' Jupiter . Both also appeared ( with Daffy Duck ) in The Scarlet Pumpernickel as the villain roles ( the only time Sylvester spoke in a Chuck Jones-directed cartoon ) .
Porky Pig is an animated character in the Warner Bros. Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies series of cartoons . He was the first character created by the studio to draw audiences based on his star power , and the animators created many critically acclaimed shorts featuring the character . Even after he was supplanted by later characters , Porky continued to be popular with moviegoers and , more importantly , the Warners directors , who recast him in numerous everyman and sidekick roles . He is known for his signature line at the end of many shorts , Th-th-th-that 's all folks ! This slogan ( without stuttering ) had also been used by both Bosko and Buddy and even Beans at the end of Looney Tunes cartoons . In contrast , the Merrie Melodies series used the slogan : So Long , Folks ! until the mid 1930s when it was replaced with the same one used on the Looney Tunes series ( when Bugs Bunny was the closing character , he would break the pattern by simply saying , in his Brooklynese accent , And Dat 's De End ! ) . He is the oldest continuing Looney Tunes character . Porky 's most distinctive trait is a severe stutter , for which he sometimes compensates by replacing his words ; for example , What 's going on ? might become What 's guh-guh-guh-guh - .what 's happening ? Porky 's age varied widely in the series ; originally conceived as an innocent seven-year-old piglet ( explicitly mentioned as such in Porky 's Preview ) , Porky was more frequently cast as an adult , often being cast as the competent straight man in the series in later years . In the ending of many Looney Tunes cartoons , Porky Pig bursts through a bass drum head , and his attempt to close the show with The End becomes Th-Th-The , Th-Th-The , Th-Th .
Robert Emerson Clampett ( May 8 , 1913 - May 2 , 1984 ) was an American animator , producer , director , and puppeteer best known for his work on the Looney Tunes animated series from Warner Bros. , and the television shows Time for Beany and Beany and Cecil . Clampett was born and raised not far from Hollywood , and early on expressed an interest in animation and puppetry . After leaving high school a few months shy of graduating in 1931 , Clampett joined the team at Harman-Ising Productions and began working on the studio 's newest short subjects , titled Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies . Clampett was promoted to a directorial position in 1937 and during his fifteen years at the studio , directed 84 cartoons later deemed classic and designed some of the studio 's most famous characters , including Porky Pig , Daffy Duck , and Tweety . Among Clampett 's most acclaimed films are Porky in Wackyland ( 1938 ) and The Great Piggy Bank Robbery ( 1946 ) . Clampett left Warner Bros. Cartoons in 1946 and turned his attention to television , creating the puppet show Time for Beany in 1949 . A later animated version of the series , titled Beany and Cecil , was initially broadcast on ABC in 1962 and was rerun until 1967 . The series is considered the first fully creator-driven television series , and carried the byline a Bob Clampett Cartoon . In his later years , Clampett toured college campuses and animation festivals as a lecturer on the history of animation . His Warner cartoons have seen renewed praise in decades since for their surrealistic qualities , energetic and outrageous animation , and irreverent humor . Animation historian Jerry Beck lauded Clampett for putting the word 'looney ' in Looney Tunes .
Baby Bottleneck is a Warner Bros. Looney Tunes ( reissued as a Blue Ribbon ) theatrical cartoon short released in 1946 and directed by Bob Clampett and written by Warren Foster . It features Porky Pig and Daffy Duck .
Daffy Duck is an animated cartoon character produced by Warner Bros. Styled as an anthropomorphic black duck , the character has appeared in cartoon series such as Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies , in which he usually has been depicted as a foil for Bugs Bunny . Daffy was one of the first of the new screwball characters that emerged in the late 1930s to replace traditional everyman characters who were more popular earlier during the decade , such as Mickey Mouse and Popeye . Daffy starred in 130 shorts in the golden age , making him the third-most frequent character in the Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies cartoons , behind Bugs Bunny 's 167 appearances and Porky Pig 's 162 appearances . Virtually every Warner Bros. cartoon director put his own spin on the Daffy Duck character . Directors such as Bob Clampett , Robert McKimson , and Chuck Jones are notable examples of the character . Daffy was number 14 on TV Guide 's list of top 50 greatest cartoon characters .
Old Glory is a 1939 Merrie Melodies animated cartoon directed by Chuck Jones , produced by Leon Schlesinger Productions , and released to theatres by Warner Bros.

Cartoons on the Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts . He wrote , produced , and/or directed many classic animated cartoon shorts starring Bugs Bunny , Daffy Duck , Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner , Pepé Le Pew , Porky Pig , Michigan J. Frog , the Three Bears , and a slew of other Warner characters . After his career at Warner Bros. ended in 1962 , Jones started Sib Tower 12 Productions , and began producing cartoons for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer , including a new series of Tom and Jerry shorts and the television adaptation of Dr. Seuss ' How the Grinch Stole Christmas ! . He later started his own studio , Chuck Jones Enterprises , which created several one-shot specials , and periodically worked on Looney Tunes related works . Jones was nominated for eight Academy Awards , winning three times . He won for the cartoons For Scent-imental Reasons , So Much for So Little , and The Dot and the Line . Robin Williams presented Jones with an Honorary Academy Award in 1996 for his iconic work in the animation industry . Film historian Leonard Maltin has praised Jones ' work at Warner Bros. , MGM and Chuck Jones Enterprises . He also said that the feud that there may have been between Jones and colleague Bob Clampett was mainly because they were so different from each other . In Jerry Beck 's The 50 Greatest Cartoons , ten of the entries were directed by Jones , with four out of the five top cartoons ( including first place ) being Jones shorts .
The Great Piggy Bank Robbery is a Warner Bros. Pictures Looney Tunes theatrical cartoon short , produced in early 1945 , and released in 1946 .
