A couple trailers and that's it. It's pretty bare on features.

My Opinion:

The Good
14 fun Tom and Jerry cartoons. All the cartoons look pretty good on this transfer. This has a few of my favorites on it so it gets a special nod from me on that.

The Bad
Nothing is particularly bad on this DVD. This DVD is nothing new as you can find these cartoons on the various Spotlight Collections and the Chuck Jones collection. So this is kind of a double-dip if you already have those aforementioned collections in your DVD library.

The Ugly
Like I said, it's bare bones: 14 cartoons and a couple of trailers. if you want something quick and easy to entertain the little ones, this would do the trick. Serious collectors/fans might shy away from this DVD.

Overall this is a nice, casual fan DVD. If you don't already have the spotlight collections and just want something quick to pop on the DVD player, Tom and Jerry's Fur Flying Adventures is just the right thing.

Also, when are we going to get some love for the Gene Deicht cartoons from the WB? I know some of them were horrendous, but there were a couple of gems in that era.
