I remember watching these cartoons when the show began sometime in 1988, I was in high school then I love the show as much now as I did then. I love the humor of garfield and how he can turn anyones day from what seems gloomy to laughing out loud. He kicks Odie off the table, he is afraid of Mondays, he's constantly sleeping and eating lasagna, and giving John a hard time. So much fun involved in watching these cartoons. I actually decided to buy this for myself because you couldn't hardly find this cartoon on anywhere. I missed watching the humorous garfield and he was my most favorite cartoon character. This is the only volume season I have. I want to buy all the seasons of garfield. This one and season 2 are my favorites. Those are the seasons I remember watching. I bought it for my enjoyment of a hilarious cartoon cat and great memories. To me there was not a thing I disliked about Garfield and Friends. In fact I also liked U.s. Acres with Roy rooster, Wade Duck, etc...Roy Rooster was always the prankster and jokester. Wade Duck was always afraid of everything. These were my 2 favorite characters in this cartoon because they were the funniest to me. So this is my review of this DVD of Garfield and Friends. I really liked these cartoons very much and I'm sure all the seasons 1-5 were good and funny. :):)Read full review
It was very exciting when they finally realized all of the Garfield & Friends episodes on 5 volumes of dvd sets. It's been off the air for quite some time, and was just recently taken off the only outlet still airing - Boomerang (an extension of Cartoon Network for Satellite/Digital Cable outlets), and a lot of people (including myself) didn't even get Boomerang anyway. Well it all works out now that everything is on DVD. I have to say this is the best one, with the first episodes that were made. The humor is a lot more raw and it sets a good foundation for the rest of the show. In fact, they did so well in these first episodes that a lot of the jokes are recycled later on in the series. This is THE ORIGINAL Garfield & Friends eps, and by far the best. I still recommend purchasing the entire series though (Volumes 1-5).Read full review
Garfield and Friends first season Vol 1. rocks! I admire the original artwork more than the computer generated series. For more reasons it's got alot of comedy in it. I'm also glad they show the Garfield Quickies as they originaly showed them on Saturday mornings. This show is a must have for all Garfield fans. It's everything I've hoped it to be. And I'm definately going for Vol 2. as well and maybe the other following seasons. This DVD brings back alot of memories. This Garfield cartoon is the real thing. Stick with the Original Garfield and Friends cartoon instead of The Garfield Show.
I remember watching Garfield and Friends back when I was younger. I watched it on CBS back in 1989 and very quickly became one of my all-time favorite cartoon shows to watch. I am unsure at this point as to exactly how many episodes there actually was in the whole cartoon lineup, but I do know that as of right now there are 5 volumes out with each volume containing 24 episodes, with the exception of Volume 5, which has 25 episodes in its set. One thing that I do like about the way FOX put out the series is that they put the series out in chronological order with the airing.
