(We are shown the Channel Awesome logo and a brand-new opening sequence for 2019. It starts off as usual, with the Nostalgia Critic himself shooting the screen, but when he blows the gun, smiling, the screen zooms in, and we're shown a red-colored space where clips of several episodes made from February to December 2018 are floating. After showing the dancing Pennywise and Devil Boner, the small light floats to the separate credit for Doug Walker appearing when the camera moves to the left. After showing the Devil and Black Willy Wonka, the credit for Malcolm Ray appears. The appearance of Aunt Despair and Hyper Fangirl marks the showing of Tamara Chambers' credit. Next, we're shown Jim drinking from a cup that reads "Really?", before going to the credit "With Jim Jarosz and Rob Walker" and the appearance of Santa Christ. The credit "Written by Doug Walker and Rob Walker" is followed. The camera zooms out of the last clip from The Nutcracker 3D review, showing all the studio team together on the couch. The show's title appears as the space fades to black, and the final credit to the intro's designer, Fard Muhammad, is shown below. We go to NC in his room)

NC: Hello, I'm the Nostalgia Critic. I remember it so you don't have to. We mention Tom and Jerry a lot on this show.

(Footage of various Tom and Jerry cartoons are shown)

NC (vo): It's one of the funniest cartoons ever made, they had brilliant comedic timing, and they've been ravished more times than a dog owner's leg. (Posters of Tom and Jerry: The Movie, Tom and Jerry Meet Sherlock Holmes, and Tom and Jerry: Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory are shown)

NC: We've also mentioned The Wizard of Oz a lot.

(Footage of the 1939 film, as well as several NC skits parodying scenes of that film, is shown)

NC (vo): It's one of the great movies, and for a film that's over 80 years old still being referenced and enjoyed by all ages, it's truly the definition of the word "timeless".

NC: I also love (images of...) Chip and Dale and Jurassic Park, but just because two things are popular doesn't mean they belong together! (An image that combines Chip and Dale and Jurassic Park together is shown, with the title "Jurassic Munk") Okay, that one kind of does, but this one doesn't! (The DVD cover for this about-to-be-reviewed movie is shown)

(The title of Tom and Jerry and the Wizard of Oz is shown, before showing various clips)

NC (vo): Before meeting Willy Wonka, Robin Hood, and Jonny Quest...

(Brief footage of Tom and Jerry: Spy Quest is shown, showing Tom and Jerry interacting with Jonny Quest)

Jonny Quest: All right, Questketeers! To the Quest Jet!

NC: (face-palmed and snickering) What...?

(Back to footage of this film)

NC (vo): ...Tom and Jerry had one of their most popular crossovers with The Wizard of Oz, so much so that it even spawned a sequel... (The DVD cover for Tom and Jerry: Back to Oz is shown) ...which, I'm sorry to say, has no headless Mombi.

(Several disturbing clips and images from Return to Oz are shown, overlapping with the clips of Tom and Jerry being scared)

NC (vo; imitating Mombi III): Tom and Jerry! TOM AND JERRY!

(Back to showing more clips from this movie)

NC (vo): These totally unnecessary spin-offs have gotten so much attention that people started making their own random crossovers. (Fan-made images "Tom and Jerry Meet Alien", "Tom and Jerry: The Shining" and even an edited cover for Grand Theft Auto are shown) They're almost taking on a life of their own. But this one was arguably the most popular, showing there is, for whatever reason, an audience for this. So I guess it only makes sense to take a look and see if the attention was warranted at all. Is there anything of redeemable value to this, or is it the worst Wizard of Oz adaptation since...90% of the other ones? (Images of The Wonderful Land of Oz, Emerald City, The Wiz, Tin Man, The Muppets: Wizard of Oz, and the Wicked Witch of the West, as shown in Once Upon a Time and Oz the Great and Powerful, are shown)

NC: Well, let's see the crossover that launched a million crossovers. This is Tom and Jerry and the Wizard of Oz.
