BA_Harrison Scaredy cat George pays his cousin Tom a visit, despite being terrified of mice. When Jerry encounters George, he mistakes him for Tom, and is surprised when the cat runs away instead of chasing him. Jerry takes every opportunity to scare George, but when Tom realises the mouse's mistake, he and George use the situation to have some fun of their own.While it's funny at first to see Jerry scaring George, the gag wears thin fast and genuine laughs are few and far between. Thankfully, the cartoon closes in fine style with Tom and George teaming together to scare the hell out of Jerry, the cats posing as an eight-legged, two-headed cat monster.5.5 out of 10, rounded up to 6 for IMDb.

nickwells85 In this tom and Jerry cartoon, Tom's cousin George, who is afraid of mice, comes for a visit. Since, George and Tom look alike, Jerry thinks that Tom is now scared to death of him until Tom and George decide that it's time for a revenge. Another thing you should notice is that George sounds like Ranger Woodlore from the Humphrey cartoons. That's because he is voiced by actor Bill Thompson who also voiced Mr. Smee in Peter pan and the white Rabbit in Alice in Wonderland. Ever since seeing that Cousin George is scared to death of mice, I have often wondered if he has met Jerry's cousin Muscles or Uncle Pesos. If you are a Tom and Jerry fan like me, I would definitely recommend this cartoon, it is a classic!

ccthemovieman-1 It was great to hear Bill Thompson again. Thompson voiced my favorite character in the classic cartoon era: "Droopy." He had a unique voice and hilarious inflections in the characters he voiced in cartoons and in radio for many years. In this Tom and Jerry cartoon, he plays Tom's ultra-meek cousin "George," who is scared-to-death of mice. He comes to visit Tom and the latter tries to hide Jerry from him, so he won't freak out.However, even though mostly it's Jerry who scares the poor cat, Tom gets in on the act early with some meanness himself. However, that quickly changes to where Tom begins to use his timid twin cousin to advantage.....to confuse and totally spook Jerry. That last part - the final third - is very, very good with a great, satisfying ending!

themadstork This isn't one of the best Tom and Jerry cartoons, but the concept is nice and they carry it out pretty well. The one downside is that the animation isn't nearly as good here as it was when Quimby was in charge. Much better than those wretched things with the babysitter and the baby though; with the exception of Deitch those are the low point of the series.
