Show Synopsis:
Journey into the heart of Singapore with Tom and Jerry as they leave through the labyrinth of towering estates and skyscrapers and bask in the vibrant green of the urban jungle.

We asked ourselves what if Tom and Jerry were born in Asia? We then envisioned them playing and creating mayhem in and around Asia. The decision to localize Tom and Jerry in Asia was because of their universal appeal, timeless humor, non-verbal communication style, and their success in the Asia Pacific markets.

In reimagining Tom and Jerry for Asia, we were inspired by the characters from our childhood as well as cultures across the Asia Pacific region. Tom and Jerry were redesigned to give them a cute aura; by making them rounder and with bigger eyes. We also incorporated elements from Asian cultures, like backgrounds and props, to add a unique flavour while staying true to the universal appeal of the original concept.

Episode Synopsis:
Jerry has his eyes set on Tom’s catch of the day and is determined to stand in the way. Tom is also bent on getting a taste of the sea one way or the other! Will they sink or swim?
