From the article:

The key difference is that, regardless of who personified good or evil (with Katnip being the latter on almost all occasions), Herman always came out on top against Katnip, while Jerry won his fair share of comic battles against Tom.

With Jerry being the mouse and Tom being the cat, doesn't this mean that the situation is the exact same in both cartoons? JIP | Talk 20:35, 23 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The "Henry" and "Chicken Pie" cartoon description sounds incoherent and possibly illiterate. I'd try to correct it but I haven't seen any of the cartoons described. --Saxophobia 01:01, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Has anyone ever seen the "Chicken Pie" cartoons? I grew up watching the Harveytoons titles and I don't recall this series. Nor can I find any reference to this series outside of this particular article. I suspect this might be a very weird hoax -- especially with the insistence of mild epithets in cartoons (which would've been impossible for films made in the 1940s and 1950s).Ecoleetage 20:42, 15 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There is at least one cartoon to feature Herman with the rooster, which I saw on Bulgarian TV (taken from US public domain tapes). However, this film was not nearly as looney as the text of this article describes it. It was mearly based on the idea that the rooster used Herman to scare his wife (the hen), so he doesn't have to do all the work for her. In the end, the cat is put in the game by the hen, who wants to get rid of the mouse (she's awfully scared of Herman). So yes, this text is probably a hoax. But the rooster-and-hen cartoon is not. --Mégara (Мегъра) - D. G. Mavrov 10:48, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Pramount page at Cartoon Research lists a Herman and Henry logo, however, the text has a big mistake: MPAA ratings did not exist prior to 1967 and PG was created in the early 1970s! Maybe some of us must see some of these films to see if there is anything wrong? --Mégara (Мегъра) - D. G. Mavrov 17:56, 15 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
