Itchy is the cartoon mouse from Itchy & Scratchy. He is a serial killer whose favorite victim is Scratchy. He almost always succeeds in killing Scratchy. It seems that there is only one episode where Scratchy defeats him.

History[]

Old Itchy

Itchy in his first appearance

Itchy first appeared in "Itchy the Lucky Mouse in Manhattan Madness", in which only Itchy appears, without Scratchy, and Itchy kills an Irish man and Teddy Roosevelt. This was the very first of many episodes where he would appear.[1]

His ears resemble Mickey Mouse's, his name is like Oswald the Lucky Rabbit's and he plays the role of Jerry from Tom and Jerry. In a parody of the view of Jerry as a villain, Itchy is depicted as a serial killer torturing and killing the innocent Scratchy, contrasting Jerry's mutual slapstick relationship with Tom (in most episodes Tom is pranked by Jerry only because he attacked Jerry in the first place).

Itchy & Scratchy Land is an Itchy and Scratchy theme park. It has parades with robots resembling Itchy and Scratchy which are intended to only attack each other.. While on vacation, the Simpsons were attacked by a group of robots when they went berserk until the family realized that flash photography can damage them by scrambling their circuits.[2] It is implied that flash photography is prohibited on the park for this reason.[3] [4]

Itchy and Scratchy also appear in The Simpsons Movie, in a short film that the Simpsons are watching in the movie theater before the actual movie begins. He kills Scratchy by filling a bunch of rockets in his mouth and then explodes him to pieces.[5]

Along with Scratchy, he may be a resident of Springfield as seen in "Hello Gutter, Hello Fadder," as they appear together as guests on The Springfield Squares.[6]

"Burning Down the Mouse," seen in "Homer Goes to College," has Scratchy kill Itchy using explosives, grenades and a nuke, though whether or not it succeeded isn't explicitly clear as Benjamin unplugs the television just before the dynamite goes off, with the short only airing once altogether.[7][8]

Itchy, along with Scratchy have also appeared in The Simpsons Ride where they host a safety video that shows the ride rules that the riders must follow.[9]
