Tom and Jerry Tales is an American animated television series that stars the iconic duo Tom and Jerry as they engage in various misadventures across different settings and environments. Season 2 episode 6 includes three individual cartoon episodes titled Xtreme Trouble, A Life Less Guarded, and Sasquashed.

In Xtreme Trouble, Tom and Jerry are presented as professional skateboarders participating in a competition. The episode primarily focuses on Tom's desire to win the competition, even if it means cheating. Jerry, on the other hand, tries to convince Tom to play fair. The episode is set in a skate arena that has various obstacles, ramps, and jumps. The animation is heavily focused on the skateboarding action, with dynamic camera angles and fast-paced edits. The episode also features several supporting characters that add to the humor of the situation.

A Life Less Guarded introduces a new character, a wealthy and paranoid woman who hires Tom as a personal bodyguard. The episode revolves around Tom's attempts to protect his employer from perceived threats while dealing with her overprotective nature. Jerry appears in the episode as a house mouse who continually outwits Tom. The humor in the episode stems from the contrasting personalities of the main characters, and the irony of Tom's inability to protect his employer from Jerry's antics.

Sasquashed is set in a forest and finds Tom and Jerry encountering a Sasquatch (Bigfoot). The episode starts with Jerry following a trail of comically oversized footprints. Eventually, he meets a large and friendly Sasquatch who befriends Jerry. Meanwhile, Tom is hunting the Sasquatch with a gun, but upon meeting the creature, he too befriends it. The episode follows the trio's adventures as they explore the forest and try to avoid being discovered by other humans. The humor in the episode comes from the contrast between the large, gentle Sasquatch and the diminutive Tom and Jerry, as well as the situational comedy that arises from their attempts to stay hidden.

Each episode provides a unique setting and situation for Tom and Jerry to get into trouble. The animation is colorful and engaging, and the characters are as lovable and memorable as ever.
