charleswatts1212 The one thing I always remember from this cartoon involves a banana, cigarette, and a soup can. It is quite possibly the best sight gag in all Warner brothers cartoons. My dad was a smoker and once we saw this cartoon together that became an inside joke between us. I agree that nick was not as funny as Mugsy but he served the purpose of the henchman in this instance. As a lifelong owner(servant to) cats I always sympathized with Sylvester and thought Tweety was a brat that got what he deserved (well almost got)for goading Sylvester. By the way has anyone noticed the similarity between these cartoons and the Home Alone films? (think Sylvester as Marve, Yosemite Sam as Harry and Keven as Tweety)?

Lee Eisenberg This time, gangster Rocky kidnaps Tweety. When the derelict Sylvester sees the famous canary in a cage, he decides to have a little snack. But getting past the gangsters won't be so easy."Catty Cornered" appears to be a midpoint for Rocky. In his early appearances, he was a tall caricature of Edward G. Robinson. Then, they made him smaller (or is vertically challenged the PC description?) and gave him more of a generic gangster look. Here he has a a competent assistant named Nick, but in later cartoons he had a dimwitted assistant named Mugsy.And that phrase "get the bird"? It's the reverse of "give the bird". Both phrases got used in the Looney Tunes cartoons.Anyway, an OK cartoon.

TheLittleSongbird I personally sort of like the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons. Catty Cornered I admit isn't a favourite, the pace here is rather dull, the story is predictable despite a decent twist and some of the jokes are disappointingly flat. That said, there is some funny dialogue and the ending I loved too. The animation as you would expect in any Looney Tunes cartoon is great, very vibrant and colourful, and the music has its fair share of energy. When it comes to the characters, the best is Sylvester who takes the laughs very well. Rocky is also entertaining, however Nick is a little bland and Tweety while decent enough is I agree serves his purpose as a plot device. I will say though, I cannot fault Mel Blanc's voice work at all, he is wonderful as he always is. All in all, decent enough but not among the best. 6.5/10 for particularly Sylvester and the animation. Bethany Cox

StSangue There doesn't seem to be any life in this one. The gags are predictable. The characters are flat. One might actually call it boring. Despite these criticisms though, I'll say that this, like most of Freleng's work of this era, is visually gorgeous. The backgrounds are stunning and the animation is flawless. Had this toon had a better story and more inspired gags it would have been something great.
