I find Tom & Jerry torture to watch, but I could watch "Catch that Pigeon" but I found Dick Dastardly torture as well.
Same. This was mostly when I was young, 7-10 years old, though, I would feel utterly bored, maybe tortured, with several cartoons, Tom And Jerry was one of the rather pointless shows, and only ocassionally had some fun ideas in the process of getting back at the other animal.
Catch that pigeon was abit of a nightmare though, the evil crew was stupid as hell and it made me cringe abit.
