The Garfield Show - Season 1 (2009)

To Garfield's dismay, a fat cat claiming to be heroic secret agent X finds all other pets his captive audience and is served all treats, even Garfield's dinner. So his mouse friend is recruited to impersonate the fictitious foreign master spy who is supposedly out to kill agent X. Thus they find out he truth.

Garfield aways was friends with a resident mouse, but now it brought dozens of 'homeless relatives', who are willing to wait on the cat hand and foot but soon get discovered. So Jon demands their eviction or he'll hire an exterminator and pay for it with Garfied's lasagna budget. The cat can't physically pull that off, but thinks up an alternative.

King Nermal: To Garfield and Odie's horror, Jon has accepted to host sanctimoniously 'sweet' neighbor cat Nermal while his owner is away. When kicked out like Garfield usually does with Odie, the tomcat pretends to have badly hurt a paw. Commiserating, Jon now promises Nermal the royal treatment and gives him a bell to instruct his own pets. Garfield's plans to end their servile peril keep backfiring, even after Nermal's paw is exposed as healthy.

Jon pays vet Liz another visit just to be with her. However her new, speaking scales find the tomcat obese. Unless he looses 2 lbs. in two days, he'll be sent to a 'spa'. Initially Jon despairs as Garfield continues his glutton ways. However a nightmare about a gulag-like spa provides ample motivation.

[II- Turkey Trouble] Jon won a Turkey, but it's alive and he refuses to kill it. Garfield wants a turkey dinner, but finds the bird a formidable adversary. The butcher refuses to take the live bird back, after some Garfield tricks even without compensation.

The city has imposed a dog-license. Jon got a dog badge for Odie, but when Garfield kicks him out as so often, it gets loose from his collar. Garfield wouldn't care even if he knew the prancing pup was caught and locked in the pound, until unsuspecting Jon decides dinner won't be served until both pets are home. For his lasagna, Garfield goes to great and imaginative lengths to free his imposed table-companion.

Pet Matchers: Jon takes Garfield along to Jake's TV show which promises to test if pets and owners are ideally matched. His computer finds lazy glutton Garfield utterly unfit for Jon and splits them up. Garfield has a hellish time as knavish rascal Freddy's abused new playmate, while the frog assigned to Jon bores him and Odie. Jake has to admit his mistake, but the make up present 'ideal holiday' is no better.

Curse of the Were-Dog: A rare astronomic constellation renders the dumbest dogs 'lunatic' at night whenever the moon isn't covered. In Odie's case, that means turning into a giant canine werewolf, without his sweet puppy inhibitions. Garfield initially gets blamed for his shenanigans.

The Pet Show: Nerwal gets a hostile welcome when he comes challenge Garfield to enter the city's pet show, until he mentions the prize, a lasagna subscription. The jury refuses Garfield as candidate, so he claims the lion share of the prize as Odie's agent. Garfiels fools all other competitors, except Nerwal, who still puts up as good a fight as Garfield can cheat. The winner faces a reemerging problem.

Curse of the Cat People: When Odie plays with a necklace Liz bought on Egyptian holiday, it transports him and Garfield to a Pharaonic culture in another dimension, where a feline cult plots to regain power over humanity. Garfield enjoys being enthroned as Pharaoh for a thousand years, until he realizes that means a sarcophagus. He escapes and suggests a revolutionary alternative.

Underwater World: Jon takes his pets along fishing from a small boat at the coast. Dough balls prove terrible bait, but a young fish mistakes Odie's tongue for a worm and pulls him down to the sea bottom 'city' where an air bubble is provided. Garfield dives after Odie and saves the fish from a shark.

While John is shopping, an alien parks his sports-car-resembling spacecraft besides his car to get some supplies. Garfiels, who was waiting inside, chases a spider and thus accidentally enters and starts the ship. It takes him to frightening planets, like one ruled by cat-eating mice. luckily the alien has a retrieval control.

Fish Fry: Jon reluctantly accepts to mind Liz's aquarium fishes during her short trip. Garfield was warned not to touch them, but can't resist. Alas, the feline glutton painfully experiences they all are dangerous, leaving him hungry as well as electrocuted and otherwise abused.

Virtualodeon: While Garfield watches the experimental cable channel Virtualodeon, virtual reality physically materializes in the living room. Due to a studio glitch, Garfield gets sucked into the set, or rather into any program it plays. The professor running the experiment comes round to help Jon retrieve the tomcat.

It's a Cat's World: While Garfield watches a TV documentary, he's suddenly pulled into a wormhole and switches places with his counterpart in a parallel world, where humans are idle pets and felines carry all the responsibilities. Unwilling to work, Garfield finds the professor who created the wormhole, eager to return.

Extreme Housebreaking: Jon enters Garfield for Dr. Whipple TV show, where the worst behaved felines are shown one evening and cured to model-behavior after his therapy. Garfield battles trough the abusive procedure, finds out the previous cat, whom he knows, was bribed and pretends to be cured.

Caroling Capers: Hearing carolers are give edible treats, Garfield tries it alone, but his feline falsetto arouses anger rather then generosity. Nerma and Odie are successful, so Garfield tries 'directing' them, or a mice choir. Ultimately, he finds his improvised instrumental calling.

Garfield can't resist, while Jon is away, with the usual threat, to bully Odie. This time it's so bad that the terrified pup, believing to be hunted down by the law, seeks refuge with new neighbor boy Nathan. Hungry, Garfield gets jealous of the spoiled dog, but can't lure him back. Neither suspects Nathan's evil hidden Frankenstein agenda.

Up a Tree: Garfield discusses his top ten favourite things, the top one being watching Odie be tormented by squirrels.

Nice to Nermal: When Jon misplaces Pookie, Nermal gets hold of the cuddly bear and uses it to blackmail Garfield into 'being nice to me' for a whole day, which proves ever harder just to have it returned. When the torment becomes unbearable, humiliated Garfield resorts to a desperate move: an e-mail inviting Jon's horrible brat girl cousins, who will 'cuddle and nurse to death' cute Nermal. But after his cruel victory, Garfield pays a horrible price.

Super Me: Garfield impersonates the superhero Ultraman. Jealous of the generosity Nermal enjoys just for being cute, 'Ultraman' arranges to rescue the kitten and claims the lion share of edible rewards. But Nermal now expects super-efficient help against real danger, like two escaped fiends whom he finds robbing a bank.

The Amazing Flying Dog: Odie keeps dreaming of impressing a girl poodle by performing superhero rescues as the caped Amazing Flying Dog. Garfield keeps dragging him back into depressing reality, rendering Odie listless. Then Garfield needs help.

The chief dog catcher fires his incompetent staff and replaces them with a robot, the T-3000. It's ruthlessly efficient, but unreasonably targets almost all pets. Garfield and Odie team up with the fired dogcatchers to get them back instead of the horrible machine.
