The Reason You Bought a DVD Player

Here for your purchasing pleasure is an Amazon link to pre-order the forthcoming DVD set of Garfield and Friends, a cartoon show I wrote back in my younger days. (I never quite understood that phrase, "younger days." What you did yesterday was done on a "younger day"…but let's not spoil a shameless plug with logic.) This set, which will be out near the end of July, includes 24 half-hour episodes of the most enjoyable experience I ever had in television. I'd like to think it shows. The set includes but one measly extra — the trailer for the live-action/CGI movie — but why do you need extras when you have twelve hours of jokes about eating lasagna, kicking puppies off the table, sleeping and mailing cute kittens to Abu Dhabi? A second volume of 24 more shows is tentatively set for release in time for Christmas and I'll probably harangue you about ordering it, too.
