Pixie and Dixie are anthropomorphic mice and the main characters in the Pixie and Dixie and Mr. Jinks animated television shorts, which came as part of The Huckleberry Hound Show television series. Their voices were originated by Don Messick and Daws Butler, respectively.

In Max's reboot series Jellystone!, Dixie is a girl.

Character descriptions

Pixie and Dixie each have grey fur, can stand upright, and act identical, but with a couple of distinct physical features. Pixie wears a blue bowtie and has a couple strand of hairs poking out, while Dixie wears a red vest and has a clump of hair on his head. In the Jellystone! reboot, Pixie has hair closer to Dixie's, while Dixie's hair is curly and now wears a dress due to being a girl.

In the crossover comic Deathstroke/Yogi Bear Special, they are ordinary mice.

Biography

Crossover Era

Laff-A-Lympics

In the Laff-A-Lympics television series, they are members of the Yogi Yahooeys, while not being primary characters in the show itself, they do compete in a few competitions.

Jellystone!

In "Must Be Jelly," Pixie asks Cindy Bear if she could surgically combine the two so they could be taller before Cindy turns them into jelly. In "Baby Shenanigans," it is revealed that they own a candy store called Pixie and Dixie's.

Harvey Birdman

While they only cameos in the series, they play an important role in the Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law video game, as they are the ones who made the potato remote in case 3.

Development

Pixie and Dixie—along with Mr. Jinks—were created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera as part of The Huckleberry Hound Show. They were both modeled after Jerry and Tom, respectively; though the former is just one mouse instead of two. Despite the similarities between these cartoons and those of Tom and Jerry, they were less violent due to the budgetary restraints Hanna-Barbera had at the time. Likewise, more emphasis was put on making the cartoons rich in witty dialogue—as opposed to visual gags like in their previous work.

Behind the scenes

• They were originally planned for the Disney film, Who Framed Roger Rabbit, but were cut for unknown reasons.
• Pixie and Dixie can be distinguished from each other with Pixie wearing a blue bow tie and Dixie wearing a red vest and having extra hair on his head.
• In the short "Cousin Tex," Tex is implied to be both their cousin, which means they are likely related in some way.
• In the Casper's First Christmas film, Pixie and Dixie (or at least Doppelgängers) made some appearances in Hairy Scary's house, in which, Pixie was female while Dixie was kept as male.

In popular culture

• In the Beast Wars: Transformers episode "Beast Wars (Part 1)," Rattrap says Cheetor's new beast mode looks tacky, which instigates an angry response that he'll cut meeces to pieces, something that Mr. Jinks said to Pixie and Dixie frequently.
