. . . Tweety and Hector Haters after documenting once and for all that Sylvester has successfully ingested McDonald's Beta McNugget via an X-ray about 3 minutes, 43 seconds into this Looney Tune from the Fifties, GREEDY FOR TWEETY. Just as all of these woman-hating rental van misogynistic sidewalk killers up in Toronto or nude Waffle House military assault rifle shooters down in Tennessee seem to possess "deaf ears" when their dads tell them that "there are other fish in the sea," Warner Bros. is urging America with GREEDY FOR TWEETY that it is pointless to get hung up on the short, expendable life of just ONE "Tweety Bird," because there are billions more of them where the first one originated (that is, the factory poultry farms soon to ramp up production for the 18 trillion McNuggets sold as of April 24, 2018). So when Granny says "Khe Sera Sera" (or, "whatever will be, will be" for those not fluent in Farsi) at the close of GREEDY FOR TWEETY, what she's really doing is telling the kids of America that it will soon be okay for them to "be like Sylvester," and become serial consumers of truck loads of Tweety Birds. After all, there'll always be plenty more where the first one hatched.

Fun Sylvester & Tweety short from director Friz Freleng. Sylvester's chasing Tweety while Hector the bulldog chases Sylvester and all three wind up running into traffic. They're sent to the hospital where Granny is their nurse. Being injured doesn't stop Sylvester and Hector from trying to inflict pain upon one another, though. My favorite scene is when a doped-up Sylvester is losing consciousness but keeps trying to force his eyes to stay open. Every time he opens them Hector is getting one step closer until the inevitable 'pow.' Great animation in this one with lovely colors and well-drawn characters and backgrounds. Lively music and wonderful voice work from the incomparable Mel Blanc and June Foray. Not one of the best Sylvester & Tweety shorts but a very enjoyable one with lots of laughs.

While most of the Tweety-Sylvester cartoons have Tweety brutally inflict pain on Sylvester or see the putty tat attacked by Hector the bulldog, "Greedy for Tweety" throws a wrench in the works by having all three get injured at once. When the trio runs into a busy street and each member ends up with a broken leg - does minuscule little Tweety have enough of a leg to actually get broken? - they get taken to the hospital with Granny as the nurse. Sure enough, Sylvester is still fixated on devouring Tweety (even if it means abusing Hector), while Hector is intent on protecting the little guy (even if it means abusing Sylvester).Many years ago, I saw this cartoon as part of the compilation film "Daffy Duck's Movie: Fantastic Island". But I'd forgotten some of the coolest scenes (namely the X-ray and the hammer-wielding mouse). As for the idea of Sylvester and Hector fanatically continuing their battle while Tweety sensibly tries to get some rest, maybe that's an allusion to the Cold War: the two superpowers sought to destroy each other while smaller, humbler countries tried to settle down. You know what they say: when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.OK, so I probably went a little far in trying to analyze this cartoon. The overall point is that "Greedy for Tweety" is truly a fine one. Friz Freleng always had some great ideas.

Tweety is chased by Sylvester and Sylvester is chased by Hector the bulldog. Instead of catching each other they are all hit by traffic and they end up in an animal hospital. The lady that takes care of them is not very fond of Sylvester and Hector and very fond of Tweety.This short has its moments and especially the ending is good, although it also is a little predictable. The Looney Tunes are almost never boring and this one will not disappoint you.
