I’ll gladly go to bat for Garfield and Friends. Funny, clever and lightyears ahead of the “barely disguised toy commercial” and “All your parents’ favorites from the 60's, but now they’re kids!” field that dominated the TV cartoon landscape when it originally premiered.

Like, just…don’t be a dick, man. Is that so hard? Goddammit. 

Yeah, well, uhhhhhh...I hate YOU!!!!

Nah, studios need everything to have lore now, because then they can extrapolate that lore into sequels and spinoffs that no one wanted.

It’s certainly nothing new to have add-ons, but the idea of charging for every little thing and taking features that were advertised as being part of the ticketed experience and removing them to an entirely separate experience/facility to this extreme level is new.

We have our safety regulations so backwards. We regulate personal safety but care little about mass safety. i.e. you can’t drive that, YOU could be killed in an accident? Versus - Of course you can tow a 40 foot trailer with your 12 foot tall truck with no prior experience because YOU will be okay if you crash.

This is very dumb. The smallest state should absolutely embrace the smallest trucks.  It’s called branding, you dummies!

Garfield and Friends was pretty solid as cartoons go. 

Garfield Minus Garfield is a good version.

This is what my wife said when I bought the KITT from Knight Rider car GPS voice. I would divorce you as well if I could.

Bill Murray did not though .

so you’re saying just a four-minute ovation at cannes 

That was just co-written by Joel. Ethen was clearly focusing on The Ladykillers.

Is she funny or something?

It’s as Scarlett as the nose on plain’s face.

Her?

Step up your game, and do it en route to the Hubble.

Sarah Sherman really came into a comfortable place this season. And I’ll second that Troast had a strong season for a rookie, beginning to fill Cecily Strong’s shoes.

I like the broader cast and don’t miss the days of one or two top performers like Kristen Wiig and Will Ferrell in every sketch.
