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.
