One of the great joys in life is sharing favorite childhood movies, books, and shows with the younger generation.

On September 17, 1988, the first episode of the wildly popular TV show and comic strip ‘Garfield’ premiered, starring the lazy, smart-alecky title character and his owner Jon Arbuckle. along with a host of other characters.

Nermal the cute baby gray tabby cat played the role of Garfield’s antagonist on the show, while Odie the dog played the role of the yellow-furred, brown eared beagle that became the title character’s best friend, and at times the victim of some pretty mean-spirited pranks.

The series creator, Robert “Jim” Davis, was born in 1945, and new comics are still being created and posted by Davis on the website GoComics.com to this very day.

A new Garfield comic strip was published on August 24, 2021, and shows the grumpy orange cat “brushing up on his mouse” language skills while viewing a demonstration.

Make no mistake about it: Garfield is still a major player in the world of comic strips and cartoons, as evidenced by a post that went viral on the Garfield Facebook page recently.

For the sake of this post, readers are tasked with finding Garfield’s lovable and mischievous canine companion amidst a sea of other characters.
