Being someone who has always loved Sylvester, never minded Tweety and enjoys the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons more than some others, Tweet and Lovely was not disappointing at all. It may not be one of the best of the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons but it is by all means a very enjoyable one.
When it comes to the story, one shouldn't expect an awful lot from it. Tweet and Lovely is very standard Sylvester and Tweety, meaning that if you're familiar already with the formula of most of the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons there will not be very much to surprise you. It is also not very hard to work out the outcome of every gag and while the dog is a good foil with a certainly intimidating presence we have seen his kind of character before a number of times and there is very little different here.
However, Tweet and Lovely is very well-animated, with vibrant colours, simple but detailed backgrounds and some as ever clever crafty character animation for Sylvester. Milt Franklyn's music score is outstanding as it always is. As with a vast majority of the Looney Tunes cartoons most of their energy and heart lies in the music, here it is always lively in rhythm, lush in orchestral sound and clever in how it matches with the action. While the humour and material are far from original, though far from tired either, they are still very funny. The gags benefit from crisp timing, solid animation and with having Sylvester as the main character, while the dialogue is hilarious and witty. Sylvester's priceless final line stands out in particular but Tweety's line regarding gravity in the vanishing cream gag(the funniest of most original) is also one of his better ones. Tweety doesn't have an awful lot to do but at least he has some funny material, some of the funniest of his later pairings with Sylvester. Sylvester steals the show, his comic timing as ever is nigh-on perfect but it's also easy to root for him. If you love Mel Blanc's voice work, you won't be disappointed here, his ability to bring manic energy and individuality to more than one character in a cartoon still shines remarkably.
Overall, standard but colourful and enjoyable. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Sylvester tries to get at Tweety but Spike the bulldog is guarding him. So Sylvester tries to come up with ways of getting around Spike, including a robot dog, smoke bombs, invisible paint, and a pogo stick. It's a funny short, although not one of the best Sylvester & Tweety pairings. The gags are a little more Wile E. Coyote-esque than you might normally expect from Sylvester. Tweety gets all the best lines. The animation is nice with well-drawn characters and backgrounds. The colors are a little muddy in places, though. Lively music from Milt Franklyn. Great voice work from the incomparable Mel Blanc. Sylvester and Tweety shorts aren't everybody's cup of tea but, if you do like them, you'll probably find something to enjoy about this one.
This 1959 "Looney Tunes" short called "Tweet and Lovely" is one that was typical of the bird and cat chase still it was entertaining and memorable. Tweety Bird is away high in the sky in his hide away home still Sylvester Cat has plans to get him only in the area is a guard dog Spike that blocks and stops Sylvester. The music, animation, and clever things are good as the cat even goes into the inventor's lab to try and develop things to capture the bird! Overall well done cartoon with good timing and again anything with Tweety and Sylvester is a memorable watch.
From his position on his shrink's couch, Sylvester spies a small yellow bird in a home on a pole. When his primitive attempts to climb the pole are thwarted by guard dog Spike, he goes back to the lab and begins concocting ways of getting the bird without having to come into contact with Spike.
I'm not a big fan of Tweety Pie, although I am a big fan of Sylvester the cat. Here Tweety is put to the wings (sorry!) as the focus is on Sylvester. His various gadgets are enjoyable even if they aren't frighteningly new ideas to the world of cartoons. He carries the film as Tweety has little to do (although does have some good lines) and Spike merely serves as a monosyllabic foil to stop Sylvester.
Overall this is nothing new to those who have seen more than 2 Tweety Pie cartoons, but that doesn't mean that it isn't funny and delivered well with a good as always performance by Sylvester.
