| No one loves the cold months better than acerbic fat cat Garfield, who thrives on a bounty of junk food and traditional meals in the delightful collection of musical-comedy TV specials Garfield Holiday Celebrations. "Garfield's Halloween Adventure" finds the portly hero and airhead-sidekick Odie the dog scrounging through owner Jon's attic to find perfect costumes, then encountering ghosts and ghoulies that seem a tad authentic. "Garfield's Thanksgiving" is a screwball special in which Jon harasses veterinarian Liz into being his Turkey Day guest. Trouble is, Jon is clueless about how to cook a big bird; fortunately, starving Garfield has the good sense to call in Jon's spirited grandmother for a culinary rescue. Grandma shows up, too, in "A Garfield Christmas," about a family get-together that covers all the nice holiday stuff and, of course, lots of bickering, pouting, and jealousy. As long as Garfield gets his Yuletide lasagna, however, all is right with the world. --Tom Keogh Editorial Descriptions are usually submitted by the manufacturers, publishers and authors.

Author: Guest It had been at least 15 years since I had seen any of these holiday Garfield cartoons, but I had not forgotten how much I loved them. I recommend this DVD for any fellow Garfield fans out there no matter how old or young you are.

Author: Guest Classic holiday cartoons from when you were a kid. I cannot say that I have seen any of these cartoons on TV for a very, very long time. You used to be able to watch them every time the holidays came around. If you are a cartoon fanatic, this is worth the buy for your collection.

Author: Guest These three Garfield specials have been part of my childhood and now can be enjoyed even as an adult. A lot of the other reviews already gush over my favorite parts, so I won't bore you with posting any the same. I will however point out that the Halloween special has been edited and is not the full version shown on television.
Once Garfield and Odie return home after their scary adventure they are about to walk up the sidewalk to their house when they notice that the ghost pirates have followed them home. Scared, they both race up a tree with their candy as the ghosts circle the base of the tree waiting for them to come down. While up on a branch Garfield asks Odie why they are still after them but then notices that there is a gold coin in one of the Halloween sacks. Garfield then takes it and drops it down to the ghosts. They smile upon seeing the coin and vanish, after which Garfield and Odie are safely able to go into the house.
I have a feeling that this scene may have been taken out of the DVD release so as to not scare little kids into thinking that ghosts can follow them home. Still, I kind of feel bad the scene was taken out as it was a very memorable scene. But if you can live with the edited version, I strongly suggest you buy this set as they are just great.

Author: Guest I've been searching everywhere for Garfield's Halloween for a really long time. And what a better way to have all three cartoons packed on one CD. I've grown up with these cartoons and I want to make them apart of my kids' lives as well. All I can say it's about time they finally released these fab cartoons once again.
