How it feels

This animated series follows the lazy orange cat Garfield, his dog Odie, and their owner Jon Arbuckle through everyday adventures. It is based on the classic comic strip and includes both familiar and new characters. The show is full of jokes and simple situations that highlight Garfield's love for food and dislike of exercise.

What happens

The Garfield Show (French: Garfield & Cie, lit. 'Garfield & Co.') is an animated television series produced by French animation production company Dargaud Media and Paws, Inc. It is based on the American Garfield comic strip created by Jim Davis. The animated series focuses on a new series of adventures for the characters of Garfield, Odie, and their owner Jon Arbuckle, alongside staple characters from the strip and a number of unique additions for the program. Both Davis and producer Mark Evanier, who previously wrote episodes for the 1988 original cartoon animated series Garfield and Friends, co-wrote stories for the program, with the cast including Frank Welker, Wally Wingert, Julie Payne, Jason Marsden, and Gregg Berger. Welker and Berger had previously voiced various characters in Garfield and Friends. The animated series premiered on 22 December 2008 in France as Garfield & Cie, in early 2009 in Japan as Gāfīrudo to shī, and on 2 November 2009 in the United States. It ran for five seasons, with its last episodes airing in the US on October 24, 2016; Evanier stated shortly afterward that it was on hiatus. On August 6, 2019, an untitled Nickelodeon series based on the Garfield comic strip was announced, seemingly ending any chances of The Garfield Show coming back. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
