Tom and Jerry Lost Episode

I used to watch Tom and Jerry on Boomerang and Cartoon Network. I also had a few direct-to-DVD movies featuring the cat-and-mouse duo. One unsuspecting Sunday in March of 2012, I recorded an episode of Tom and Jerry on [adult swim]. Weird, right? I wondered why it was during [adult swim]. Once I watched it, I realized why. The episode aired around 2am, and was rated TV-MA-V. It came after Infomercials and before Superjail. The episode was called "Bloodshed", was released in 1947 and was written and directed by "Banna Harbera". The episode started with Tom drinking some milk. It then cut to Jerry, who spotted Tom. He ran towards Tom, only to be snapped in half by a mousetrap. Gore spewed everywhere. Tom didn't notice, and continued drinking milk. Spike then came out, and saw the bloody corpse of Jerry. He then said, "Did you touch him?" Tom looked at the corpse, and shook his head. Spike said "Lying, aren't we? Well, this has been a long time coming." He then punched Tom in the throat, with blood coming out of Tom's mouth. Spike ripped Tom into two pieces with his bare hands, and ate his insides. Suddenly, Mammy Two-Shoes came out, and battered Spike with her rolling pin. She then turned him into a dog pizza, and ate him alive, dog insides coming out of the pizza. The episode ended right there. I contacted Turner, and they said

"Hello,

We apologize for airing that episode. The episode was intended to be a parody of Tom and Jerry, and the "Banna Harbera" in the episode was actually the grandfather of Melissa McCarthy. We decided to air the episode because our contract says we needed to air all the episodes once on the channel, which strangely included this one. We will air the same cartoon at 5am in February of 2013 on Boomerang for the same reason.

Turner"

So they needed to air all episodes of the show, including episodes like "His Mouse Friday", which might irk some controversies. I decided to keep this episode for historical purpose.
