He also appears as a "baby" version of himself in the television series Baby Looney Tunes. He's also in many Six Flags theme parks. In the episode " Eligible Bachelors ", Sylvester asks about the canary's gender, the answer to which Tweety whispers into Sylvester's ear, leaving the feline surprised. Tweety appeared in New Looney Tunes.
Tweety recently appeared as a recurring character in Looney Tunes Cartoons , where he is voiced by Eric Bauza and has been reverted to the more violent and aggressive personality that Bob Clampett originally gave him. However, like his earlier appearances, his violent nature is often toned down. He will also appear in the preschool series Bugs Bunny Builders. Looney Tunes Wiki Explore. Looney Tunes Cartoons.

Studying free-flowing conversation can provide insight into some easily-overlooked, yet pervasive behaviors, such as how conversants subtlely or not-so-subtlely negotiate when to speak in different conversational settings.
But a standardized video stimulus like Canary Row can ease comparison of gestures between individual storytellers. Compared to open-ended prompts, participants may more reliably gesture at certain moments in a story, such as a common plot point, action, or character emotion—for example, people tended to gesture when describing Sylvester and Tweety looking at each other through binoculars.
A standard stimulus also makes comparison easier between groups and studies. The original plan was to eventually show the cartoon to children, and researchers have recorded retellings of Canary Row by narrators as young as two-and-a-half years old. The comparisons have been carried through new studies across decades.
A Popeye cartoon was another strong contender, he says, but the structure was more complex than anticipated. From an entire Saturday morning lineup, Canary Row won out by process of elimination. By examining these videotapes closely—at key points, frame by frame—McNeill has found that the gestures we spontaneously make in conversation are full of meaning… McNeill contends, and his tapes show, that gestures and speech jointly form a single mode of expression stemming from the same underlying mental process.
Together they are windows on the mind. Hand and Mind presented a view of gesture that was contrary to conventional wisdom. With Hand and Mind , McNeill argued that gesture shares basic cognitive faculties that underpin spoken language abilities. Over the years, researchers have recut, remixed, or otherwise reused shorter clips of the seven-minute cartoon to study specific gestures. Two scenes in particular that seem to reliably encourage gesture have become popular excerpts.
In one, Sylvester swings on a rope between buildings. In the other, Sylvester swallows a bowling ball, then rolls down a hill. English speakers tend to describe the action with one tumbling diagonal hand motion. Spanish speakers, on the other hand, might gesture first for rolling, and then for downwards motion. This is consistent with the way that manner and path of motion are treated in each language.
Canary Row narrations have been recorded by patients with various language pathologies. Goldin-Meadow recently recorded amputees retelling Canary Row , although she has not yet analyzed the footage. Sign language researchers, many also interested in gesture, have also adopted Canary Row for certain applications. In one such study, Emmorey and colleagues counted the gestures produced by English-speaking second language learners.
American Sign Language students, on the other hand, produced a greater variety and number of gestures, in some cases even mixing ASL into their English narrations. This branch of the study investigates the development of story-telling in a second language.
They recount things. Canary Row is probably the most common story in gesture and sign language research, but it is not the only piece of popular entertainment that researchers have appropriated for similar purposes. Since then, this habit was also used in certain idents of the UK Boomerang channel.
Clampett began work on a short that would pit Tweety against a then-unnamed, lisping black and white cat created by Friz Freleng in However, Clampett left the studio before going into full production on the short, and Freleng took on the project.
Freleng toned Tweety down and gave him a cuter appearance, including large blue eyes and yellow feathers. Clampett mentions in Bugs Bunny Superstar that the feathers were added to satisfy censors who objected to the naked bird. Sylvester and Tweety proved to be one of the most notable pairings in animation history. Most of their cartoons followed a standard formula:.
In the lyrics Sylvester sings "I'd like to get that Sweetie Pie when he leaves his cage", implying that Tweety's name is actually Sweetie Pie, altered in its pronunciation by Tweetie's lisp. Sylvester, who has his own speech issues involving the letters S and P, slobbers the "S" in "Sweetie Pie", just as he would the "S" sounds in his own name.
From until the original Warner Bros. Tweety has the starring role and carries the story in the direct-to-video feature length animated film " Tweety's High-Flying Adventure "he has a girlfriend called aooga, he is not married,and doesn't have any children. In , a younger version of him premiered on Baby Looney Tunes , thus coming full circle from his earliest appearances.
Tweety appeared in an early s public service announcement , warning parents of the dangers of scalding-temperature bath water. Tweety appeared in several television specials and feature-film compilations , along with Sylvester , in the s and s.
In several sequences, Tweety was speaking and laughing in character like Peter Lorre. This is also notable for being a rare instance where Tweety is playing a villain character. In a Frosted Cheerios commercial, Tweety along with Sylvester made a rare special appearance. In the game Taz: Wanted , Tweety assists Taz in destroying "Wanted" posters and gives him hints throughout the game. In the game, he refers to Taz as "Puddy-Taz" and expresses a dislike for him, thinking that he shouldn't be working with amateurs.
At the end of the game, Tweety reveals himself to be the mastermind behind Yosemite Sam 's evil plan, and fights Taz using a large robot, but is defeated.
