Itchy and Scratchy are a super-violent cartoon cat and mouse duo in the style of ''Tom and Jerry'' featured on the ''[[Krusty the Clown]] Show''.
 
 
 
==Studio==
 
The show is produced by Itchy & Scratchy International. The company was founded by Roger Meyers Sr, a controversial WWII filmmaker who made a career out of violent cartoons. Roger Meyers Jr has since taken over the company since the death of his father.
 
 
 
==Spin-Offs==
 
A short-lived spin-off of the original cartoon series was titled the "Itchy & Scratchy & Friends Hour", which featured the original characters Uncle Ant, Disgruntled Goat, and Ku Klux Klam. While the spin-off was cancelled, merchandise featuring these characters is still available. [[Itchy & Scratchy International|Itchy & Scratchy International's]] other characters include Flatulent Fox and Manic Mailman, but it is unclear whether these characters appeared in the Itchy & Scratchy & Friends Hour.
 
 
 
==Poochie Era==
 
During a dip in the perenially popular show's ratings, a new dog character was added, named Poochie. [[Homer Simpson]] provided the voice for Poochie, who only co-starred with the cat and mouse for two episodes before his poorly-devised character was retired from the show.
 
 
 
==Parody==
 
Briefly, during the popularity of the Krusty Show's competitor [[The Gabbo Show]], the rights to air new episodes and the back catalog of Itchy and Scratchy went to the latter, forcing Krusty to replace it with a bizarre Eastern Europe cat and mouse cartoon "Worker and Parasite".
 
 
 
==Original Plans==
 
During the early days of The Simpsons, Itchy and Scratchy were originally intended to only briefly parody Tom and Jerry, but their cartoon shorts proved very popular and became a regular part of the show.
