Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMeticulous rendering of all the background details, common in cartoons of this era, including a popular Raggedy Ann like doll under the Christmas tree.
- GoofsWhen Sylvester uses the toy crane, he cranks it in the same direction to both lower the grappling claw and raise it. He should have cranked it in the opposite direction to raise it.
- Alternate versionsCurrent Cartoon Network version cuts out the entire scene in which Sylvester, dressed as an Indian, tries to catch Tweety, who's dressed as a cowboy. Sylvester pulls off the cork of Tweety's gun and gets blasted in the face. He manages to catch Tweety but gets stopped by Granny, who's also dressed like an Indian.

Featured review
They'll use certain settings for anything, won't they?
OK, since "Gift Wrapped" is set around Christmas, we can safely assume that Granny and Tweety are being good, while Sylvester and the dog - presumably named Hector - are being naughty. The main humor here is seeing how Sylvester uses the presents to go after Tweety...and when the dog appears unexpectedly (come to think of it, I could occasionally guess when he was going to appear). Everyone likes to use Christmas as the setting for something unusual (or would all this count as usual?); "Gremlins" did a really neat job with that.
I figure that the cartoon mainly functions as a place holder in between the really great cartoons (1952 also saw "Operation: Rabbit"). So this is an OK, not great addition to the pantheon of Sylvester/Tweety cartoons. Passable.
