Although not quite as good as the original, The Garfield Show isn't that bad, like other reviews say. Those of you who grew up with Garfield and Friends, however, might not enjoy it, so I recommend it to newer fans or those who have never watched the older series. Also, people need to calm down about the animation. So what if it's not the best? Did you expect Avatar when you first watched this? You shouldn't because if you're familiar with television CGI, you should know it's not up-to-par with movie CGI because it's on a lower budget. Anyways, that aside, Garfield is and never was a good role model, due to his overeating and laziness, so kids should definitely not model themselves after him. Garfield even tries to steal food at times. He's also rude and constantly kicks Odie. He seems to take joy in insulting others (Jon, Nermal, etc.) and his main goal every morning is torturing the mailman. Everytime Jon tries to put him on a diet or make him lose weight, Garfield always finds a way to avoid it. The show is pretty tame and kid-friendly overall. I definitely recommend it.
