OK so I am definitely like Garfield falling asleep in front of WBOR, probably a late-night horror movie or the weather forecast or an infomercial that came on while I was too tired to turn off the television waking up to the dreaded Binkie The Clown exhorting people to get up and exercise. Like Garfield I will only take the opportunity of having awoken to be happy to turn off Binkie The Clown and go back to sleep.
Jon is the kind of cat-parent who gives his cat for breakfast:
a) a cinnamon roll, b) a croissant, c) bacon, d) an apple, e) a coffee service all of it on a tray all at once. This is when he is… -

Ever since I was a kid, I always had a fondness for Garfield, the lazy cynical orange cat that popped into comic strips five years AFTER the other popular orange cat Heathcliff (let's settle the beef, both were pretty good in their prime, but the curmudgeon nature of Garfield can be more relatable than Heathcliff's unpredictable free-thinker antics). Having read and owned plenty of the collections, watched all the specials and episodes of Garfield and Friends multiple times, and owning other related books of incredibly varied quality bearing the fat cat's name (my prized possession of course being the book that straight-up gives you insults to tell to other people that bug you), you could say I was a bit…

It's got action! It's got comedy! It's got drama! It's got romance! It's got suspense! The Saw franchise, the Pirates of the Caribbean movies, and every Eli Roth movie are complete copies of Garfield's Halloween Adventure.

I watch this every year when carving pumpkins. One of my all time favorite Halloween specials.

i definitely thought jon would never even let them out the front door to go trick or treating

Better than The Great Pumpkin and scarier than mostly anything else geared towards kids in the 80s. The final 5-7 minutes turns into a Carpenter movie and it's absolute insanity.
