Press Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
WARNER HOME VIDEO UNLEASHES NEW ADVENTURES OF THE ANIMATED CAT AND MOUSE DUO TOM AND JERRY ON DVD AUGUST 12, 2008 WITH THE RELEASE OF TOM AND JERRY TALES: VOL. 5
Single-Disc DVD Features Four Episodes from the Popular Kids’ WB Series
Tom and Jerry Tales: Vol. 5 presents viewers with 12 totally terrific cartoons loaded with fur-flying, fun-filled chases, mischief and general high-jinks, including encounters with space aliens in Invasion of the Body Slammers, and Big Foot in Sasquashed. In Monster Con, legendary monster hunter, Van Helsing, chases after Tom when he’s transformed into a werewolf. Jerry transforms into a skateboarder while Tom chases him down on a dirt bike in Xtreme Trouble. Endless Bummer features Tom, Jerry and the lovable Droopy entering a surfing competition. Tom and Jerry Tales originally premiered on Kids’ WB in September 2006 and features characters from the classic Tom and Jerry cartoons in newly created shorts, which audiences have not seen done in 30 years. Tom and Jerry Tales can be seen online at kidswb.com.
“Tom and Jerry are as popular with viewers now as they were when their theatrical shorts first appeared on the silver screen over sixty years ago and this is because we’ve been successfully able to adapt them into contemporary culture with such franchises as Tom and Jerry Tales,” commented Amit Desai, WHV Vice President of Family, Animation & Sports Marketing. He added, “We think both older and newer generations of fans will enjoy this DVD because it offers the traditional, wacky Tom and Jerry escapades we’ve all grown to love while putting the characters in a setting that most kids today can relate to.”

Our Review of Tom and Jerry Volume 5
As I have said many times before in my reviews, I love watching cartoons. Growing up, I do not remember calling them "toons" and definitely not an "animated series," but when it comes down to it, to me they will always just be cartoons to me. As I get older, I may not look forward to waking up early on Saturday morning or running home from school to watch my favorite cartoons (although there have been a few times over the last few years I made sure I was home on a Sunday evening to watch an episode of the Simpsons), when I am home relaxing, or watching TV with my kids, I do watch cartoons (although some of today's cartoons are good, they do not compare with the classics such as Bugs Bunny or Tom and Jerry).
This DVD contains 12 episodes of my favorite cat and mouse team-up. This was one of my favorite cartoons as a young kid and it has remained a favorite throughout my lifetime. Tom and Jerry Tales does update the pair to be a lot more modern, but their same cat and mouse antics are as fresh as ever. There are some pretty cool episodes with this DVD, especially one where Van Helsing is in pursuit of Tom. I also have to mention the cameo of other classic characters such as Droopy in one of the episodes.
This was another great collection of cartoons in this fifth volume of Tom and Jerry tales to be enjoyed by those that are young and young at heart alike.
