Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks is one of the three segments of The Huckleberry Hound Show. This show was produced by Hanna-Barbera Productions between October 2, 1958, and October 13, 1961, and consist of 57 episodes.




Plot


The cartoon series stars two mice, the bow-tied Pixie (voiced by Don Messick) and the vested Dixie (voiced by Daws Butler), and Mr. Jinks the cat (also voiced by Butler who is always outfoxed by the mice, causing him to utter his trademark line "I hate you meeces to pieces!" The show's plot itself and its characters followed the same basic concept as Tom and Jerry, the film series Hanna-Barbera had developed for MGM; because Hanna-Barbera were constrained by the smaller budgets for television, Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks emphasized verbal humor to compensate for the more limited animation compared to the more physical comedy used by the mostly mute Tom and Jerry shorts.
