[edit] Character in Tiny Toon Adventures
Sweetie Pie is a fictional anthropomorphic pink canary who appears in the 1990s series Tiny Toon Adventures. Sweetie is voiced by Candi Milo.
She is based upon the Tweety character.
Sweetie's personality tended toward behaving in an amiable manner, but was prone to a mischievous streak when dealing with her main enemy and longtime pursuer, Furrball the cat.
Sweetie is voiced similarly to comedian Judy Tenuta---speaking in a liquid trill followed by a throaty screech (when excited).
Like the other characters in the series, Sweetie attended Acme Looniversity. Her mentor and favorite teacher was Tweety. Sweetie's pink coloring, devious grin, and somewhat mean-spirited personality seem to be a throwback to Tweety's early appearances.
In one short, Sweetie is seen to be owned by Elmyra Duff, who also owns Furrball, setting up the familiar scenario seen in earlier Sylvester and Tweety cartoons. Sweetie constantly outsmarts the predatory Furrball by making him look bad in front of his usually sweet-tempered owner, to the point of his eviction from the apartment.
In episode "Go Sweetie Hyde", she accidentally transforms into a giant, grotesque bird-like monster and wants to chase and eat Furrball. In her monster form, she is voiced by Rob Paulsen and has a British accent.
Occasionally, Sweetie is shown to be running after the Bookworm, in which case she is constantly outsmarted, or simply has bad luck.
