Garfield and Friends was an American animated television series based on Jim Davis's Garfield comic strip, airing on CBS from 1988 to 1994 alongside the U.S. Acres segments. Its bright opening theme introduced the lazy orange cat, Jon and Odie each week and quickly became tied to the character in popular culture. Years later, short clips of the theme circulated on soundboards and in online edits, where its instant recognition makes it a shorthand for lazy humour, cartoon nostalgia and Garfield himself.
