Having successfully avoided Tom and Jerry through my childhood, I'm now consuming it at a rate that feels like 90 minutes per day. My impressions:
- The music is superb, and under-appreciated
- I'm surprised that my children enjoy this. They generally dislike violence on TV...even in Disney films. The probably get that the violence here is stylized
- I'm surprised the violence, stylized or otherwise, hasn't worried the censors or the morality police
- I find it a lot easier to identify with the predator (Tom) than the prey. That might be part of the reason I don't enjoy the violence

What is worrying is that you identify with Tom rather than with Jerry...
