Why it’s a Weeknight Watch

With soft box office and little lasting buzz, it's a mixed bag. Fine if it's on; don't plan your night around it.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for people who need a good giggle and adventure lovers. One the grown-ups won't mind watching too.
The mood
Light and funny, feel-good.
The pace
Paced for all ages, at 24 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).

The first TV special starring the rotund comic strip staple Garfield the Cat. Here, he and his dull-witted canine cohort Odie end up at the pound.
