Is it for you?

Who'll love it: Made for anyone who wants a laugh, families and animation lovers. If you loved The Ren & Stimpy Show, start here.
The mood: Light and funny, feel-good.
The pace: 5 seasons, but most episodes stand on their own, so you can dip in anywhere (about 30 minutes each).
What might put you off: Nothing much for most grown-ups.

Your favorite lazy, fat cat is at it again. Garfield, Odie, Jon and the rest of the gang are back for more funny misadventures. Whether he's scarfing down lasagna or tricking Nermal the kitten, Garfield is guaranteed to crack you up. But remember: He hates Mondays!
