The reason behind End of a Comic Era-Tom & Jerry!
CONTROVERSY: It was the 103rd episode of Tom & Jerry in the late forties. But, the theme of the episode made it controversial as it depicts a lot of depression, violence, suicide and negativity. It was even the last episode that was shot in the MGM studios.
END: Joseph Barbera and William Hanna the creators of the show wanted the last episode to be the showstopper of this continuous rivalry of cat and mouse.
