‘Tom and Jerry Show’ Premieres April 9 on Cartoon Network

"The Tom and Jerry Show" will premiere Wednesday, April 9th, at 5:30pm (ET/PT) on Cartoon Network. It's being pitched as "a fresh take on the iconic frenemies that preserves the look, core characters and sensibilities of the original theatrical shorts." Unlike the original 6-7 minute theatrical shorts, which were produced during the 1940s-'50s, the new episodes will be 11-minutes each.

“Walt”: The Disney Biopic That Never Was

IN THE EARLY 1980S, CARDON WALKER JR. AND I produced the "Disney Family Album" series for The Disney Channel. It was one of the very first series funded by the Channel, and the first to get any kind of critical acclaim thanks to our nomination for a Cable Ace Award for Best Documentary Series. But we had an even bigger ambition, and that was to land the Great White Whale of Disney myths, the life story of Walt himself.
