Tweety Pie is my favourite Looney Tunes character. He is a cute yellow bird who is always being stalked by Sylvester, a cat who is desperate to eat him.
Tweety and Sylvester were first paired up in 1947, and the first short with both of them in it won Warner Bros its first Academy Award for Best Short Subject (Cartoons).
Tweety is a good-natured and happy little bird, until he is faced with danger, and then he can become downright nasty! He can't speak properly due to having no lips and teeth, and his catchphrase is 'I tot I taw a puddy tat. I did, I did tee a puddy tat!'
Tweety is often accompanied by Granny and her bulldog Hector, who protect him from Sylvester and other adversaries.
During the 1990s Tweety starred in the Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries, where Granny ran a detective agency with the help of Tweety, Sylvester and Hector. He was in the film Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and in 2003 a younger version of him appeared in Baby Looney Tunes. He was also in Tiny Toon Adventures as a mentor to the character Sweetie Pie.
