Garfield and Friends
Garfield went from being a comic strip to a full-fledged cartoon in this series. If anyone had wondered about his gender, that question ended quickly the second you hear his deep voice. Sidekick Odie the Dog doesn’t speak for some reason, further lending to the narrative of cats being smart and dog’s being complete idiots. Or at least on this show, they play that theme up largely. Besides Garfield and family, this series also showed the adventures of the U.S. Acres characters in separate segments of the show. The show would evolve around shorts, Garfield and his adventures in the first and third segments, with a U.S. Acres segment in the middle.
