The Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries is a fun American cartoon TV show. It was made by Warner Bros. Animation. The show was on Kids' WB from 1995 to 2002. It had 52 episodes in total. The very last episode was first shown on Cartoon Network in 2002.

In 2021, a new show called Tweety Mysteries was announced. It will be like this show but will mix live-action with animation.

About the Show

This cartoon follows famous Looney Tunes characters. You'll see Sylvester (the cat), Tweety (the bird), their owner Granny, and her bulldog Hector. They travel all over the world solving mysteries.

While Granny and the gang solve crimes, Sylvester is always trying to catch and eat Tweety. But Hector, the bulldog, is Tweety's bodyguard. He makes sure Sylvester doesn't succeed!

The first season of the show was made to remember Friz Freleng. He was a famous animator who created the original Sylvester and Tweety cartoons. He passed away just before the show started.

At first, each episode had one big mystery. Later, starting with the second season, each episode had two shorter mysteries.

Other Looney Tunes Friends

Many other characters from the Looney Tunes world also appear in the show. They pop up in small roles to help or sometimes cause trouble. Some of these characters include:

The final episode of the series was special. In it, Sylvester finally dreams of eating Tweety. This episode was not shown on Kids' WB but aired on Cartoon Network in 2002.
