Tweety Bird, a delightful animated yellow canary, like his now famous co-star Sylvester had separate successful careers in animation.
Then they were brought together in Tweetie Pie (1947). Tweety made his first animation appearance in "A Tale of Two Kitties" (1942), with Babbit and Catstello, two cats animated after the famous comedy team of Abbott and Costello. The teaming of Tweety and Sylvester was such a success they were featured in 39 cartoons between 1947 and1964, acquiring two Academy Awards for "Tweetie Pie" and Birds Anonymous" (1957) and three Oscar Nominations. Granny, Tweety's owner was seen in many of Tweety's films, a sweet grandma who is as nice and sweet as can be, until Sylvester comes around to eat her little Tweety in which Tweety is heard to exclaim his famous line, "I tawt I taw a puddy tat. I did, I did see a puddy tat!"
