I have always been a huge Tom and Jerry fan. Texas Tom was one of my favourites from them as a child and as a young adult it still is. Texas Tom is part of Tom and Jerry's best overall era(which was right up to 1956 for me) and the beautifully coloured and detailed animation reflects that perfectly. Another high point is the music, the orchestral music is very lively, and the songs are catchy with very clever lyrics. The gags are plentiful and are very inventive in how they're executed, especially the ones with the revolver and the turntable record, while the story makes a potential clichéd concept seem fresh instead and there is never a dull moment. Tom and Jerry are still likable and excel at just doing what they do best. Their chemistry is still inspired. In conclusion, an outstanding Tom and Jerry cartoon and one of their better ones in my opinion. 10/10 Bethany Cox

This isn't a particularly great Tom and Jerry cartoon, but considering it was made during the absolute best period of animation from MGM (1941-1956), it still is a very, very good cartoon. Tom and Jerry are out West and Tom is apparently a very capable Cowcat (he really can't be a "comboy", can he?). He spends much of his time tormenting Jerry with his rope tricks until a cute female cat shows up (the same one that periodically shows up in their cartoons). So, Tom wants to impress her but ends up being outwitted by Jerry--who then tries to woo the girl cat (that's kind of weird, huh?). Once again, the cartoon has excellent production values and I have no major complaints other than the fact this wasn't a particularly memorable cartoon--just an average Tom and Jerry toon.

This is one of the better Tom and Jerry cartoons to prominently feature music. For some reason, whenever music was a focus, the short was usually excellent (examples include, Solid Serenade, Johann Mouse, Pecos Pest and, obviously, The Cat Concerto). Here, there's a hilarious song at the outset, over the opening credits and a bit later, Tom does his best impersonation of a cross between Tex Ritter and Milli Vanilli. Jerry, for a good many reasons, does his best to destroy Tom's romantic intentions (hey, what are "friends" for?) and largely succeeds. At cartoon's end, we leave amid the strains of another musical interlude and a twisted variation on an old cliche of the western genre and a good time is had by all, except Tom, of course. Well worth tracking down and most highly recommended.

Dude Ranch is the place where 'Texas Tom' is set. Tom, busy fooling around with Jerry in his usual manner, suddenly notices a car drop off a very pretty cow-girl cat with whom Tom immediately falls for. Jerry, however, has other ideas...This cartoon is cool! It's dead funny, especially when Tom starts miming to a turntable record playing 'If You're Ever Down In Texas, Look Me Up', but I won't spoil that bit.Recommended!
