The original versions of the cartoons were reinstated when Turner Broadcasting acquired ownership of the Tom & Jerry property. These versions used rotoscoping techniques to replace Mammy on-screen with a similarly-stocky white woman (in most shorts) or a thin white woman (in Saturday Evening Puss) Randolph's voice on the soundtracks was replaced by an Irish-accented (or, in Puss, generic young adult) voice performed by white actress June Foray. In the 1960s, the MGM animation studio, by then under the supervision of Chuck Jones, created censored versions of the Tom & Jerry cartoons featuring Mammy for television. Mammy was originally voiced by well-known African-American character actress Lillian Randolph. Later, Hanna and Barbera seemed to suggest, through dialogue and occasional behavior, that the house was Mammy's own. William Hanna and Joseph Barbera initially portrayed Mammy as the maid of the house, with the real owners unknown to us.

The character went on to make many appearances through the entire series until 1952 and her last appearance in the short, Push-Button Kitty where she makes a failed attempt to replace Tom by a mechanical cat named "Mechano" to keep Jerry out of her house, but it malfunctions and Tom accidentally swallows the computer of Mechano and unintentionally begins wreaking her house when he accidentally turns into Mechano. She always referred to Tom as his given name Thomas and almost always used "is" in conjunction with a pronoun ("is you" and "I is"). Mammy first appeared in Puss Gets the Boot, the first Tom and Jerry cartoon (except Tom was called "Jasper").
