Heckel and Jeckle decide it is too much trouble and time-consuming, not to mention wear-and-tear on their wings, to fly south for the winter, so they will pose as orphans and find some kindly old grandmother to take care of them when the snow flies. They do. But the kindly old grandmother turns out to be a disguised-wolf who has an appetite for magpie soup. This is not at all what they had in mind.

In this Cinemascope Terrytoon, Spoofy is a zany little fox that comes to life on the animator's drawing board and subdues a western gunslinger with trick props and gadgets.

Papa Bear wants to spend his paycheck on something foolish, but the Cubs think he should purchase some interest-paying defense bonds. Disregarding their advice, he buys a mechanical robot to do all the housework. But robots have a high-maintenance cost, and this one has an attitude as it multiplies itself when Papa Bear tries to destroy it.

A young couple's marriage is jeopardized by the husband's descent into alcoholism.

The war is over, and a lot of land is up for settlers to grab. Hector Heathcote and his talking dog Winston have just been kicked out of the boarding house, and they have to join the land rush, too, in order to find a place to stay. Homesteaders Hector and Winston try to prevent their greedy, land-grabbing neighbor Benedict from taking over their property.

Three bunny rabbits are having fun play with a jovial snowman who has come to life. But along comes a villainous bear who wants to put the snowman on a hot stove. But also along comes the Friendly North Wind, as opposed to the Unfiendly North Wind, who rescues the snowman and reunites him with the bunnies.

This one has lots of what Terrytoons are notorious for: cycles! And cycles of the commonest kind: ants harvesting and a baby factory! It also has a voluptuous Queen Ant and a sweetly delivered punchline which may make it worth your trouble. Withheld from television release; presumably because it leaves too many "birds-and-bees" questions unanswered for tiny tots (and their beleaguered parents).

A very tough gang of alley cats are running a black-market operation in a big city, filled with little mice and gangster cats, and are making the streets mean indeed. And they have a hit-order out on Mighty Mouse.

A Terrytoons cartoon released 2 April 1937.

A CinemaScope Terrytoon released in May 1961

Re-enactment of the famous May 31, 1889 Johnstown, Pennsylvania flood where the dam broke and flooded out an entire town! In this version, the town is occupied by mice and dogs. But Mighty Mouse comes to the rescue after drinking a bottle of "Atomic Energy." He reverses the flood waters and puts everything back where it was. And in this cartoon, he uses magic lightning bolts coming off his hands like Merlin the Magician!

The big bad cats are the villains/Indians, and the little mice are the settlers going west in their little covered wagons, and the Indians are on a rampage about it. Things look dark indeed for the settlers when the likes of Buffalo Bill, General Custer and Daniel Boone are unable to defeat the attacking cats but...wait...up in the sky...here comes the singing, flying mouse...Mighty Mouse. Not recommended for Revisionists.

A Terrytoons cartoon released 10 January 1947. Amidst the rolling hills of a pastoral landscape, a faithful sheepdog diligently watches over his flock of lambs, ensuring their safety and well-being. However, trouble brews when the mischievous black sheep of the family decides to stir up chaos with his playful antics.

All of the mice gather around a giant TV to watch a fairy tale about Goldilocks and the Three Bears. The Wolf and his buddies are laying in wait for Goldilocks. The Wolf tries his best to get Goldie, including trying to serenade her by imitating Frank Sinatra. There is a call for Mighty Mouse! A hand animates Mighty, and he flies to the rescue. The Wolf has to call in his motorcycle gang of wolves to help him... but to no avail.

A singing, jitterbugging Goldilocks goes through her paces with the grizzly trio, but when a bear hunter gets into the house, she joins with them to fight and eventually tie him up.

Farmer Al Falfa and his dog try to have a private picnic, but Heckle & Jeckle decide to freeload. The usual hijinks ensue as the farmer and his dog try to get rid of the magpies. Eventually, the farmer gives them a stick of dynamite disguised as a hot dog. As they try to roast it, the farmer drives away in his car to avoid the explosion, but Heckle & Jeckle throw the dynamite into their car.
