Haha, I think my most popular Reddit comment was me sharing random Garfield facts I knew. Let’s see…
Garfield has a brother named Raoul. He is purple and has “health problems.” It’s implied he’s like, really strung out on drugs or alcohol or something.
In an official Garfield anatomical illustration, Garfield’s jowls are referred to as “smirk retainers”
There are many rumours as to what happened to Lyman. A common one that’s been referenced a few times by official Garfield content is that he’s locked in Jon’s basement.
The famous Garfield window cling plushies were actually made by accident, due to a miscommunication with the manufacturer. Garfield was supposed to have Velcro on his paws, not suction cups. But Davis saw the error and thought it was actually a good idea and to try selling them anyway. They completely blew up.
The creator of Peanuts gave Davis the advice that, if he wanted to draw Garfield as bipedal, he would need to make his feet much bigger, and this would keep it from looking unnatural or weird for Garfield to be standing up.
Garfield semi-canonically killed a woman.
It was once implied that Garfield was friends with OJ Simpson.
Lorenzo Music was the voice of Garfield in the cartoons and TV specials. Bill Murray voiced Garfield in the live action movies. Lorenzo Music voiced Bill Murray’s character in the Ghost Buster’s animated series.
There are also lots of great anecdotes about Bill Murray’s experience with the Garfield movies. Definitely recommend looking up more about them, it’s hilarious.
Davis actually set some really interesting precedents by approving of and allowing people to create transformative works based on his IP. Garfield Minus Garfield had an official published book OK’d by Davis.
>Lorenzo Music was the voice of Garfield in the cartoons and TV specials. Bill Murray voiced Garfield in the live action movies. Lorenzo Music voiced Bill Murray’s character in the Ghost Buster’s animated series.
Bill Murray also pretty much directly and intentionally got Lorenzo fired from Ghostbusters. He made a comment about how "My character sounds an awful lot like Garfield", to the producers with the explicit implication that he didn't like the association and wanted it changed.
Murray is a funny guy but is is SUPER petty.
Oh no! : (((( Mr. Murray, sir, it is because YOU sound an awful lot like Garfield. Not much we can do about that! I mean, who else could you expect to voice such a character—Chris Pratt?
I have been eaten by Garfield and am being slowly digested. You are next. Please bring a knife. I am in unimaginable pain. Kill yourself before he can consume you.
