Garfield

Garfield is one of the main characters from many Garfield comic strips.

Why He Rocks

 * 1) He is an amazing cat and one of the most memorable cartoon cats in history, and along with many cartoon characters or cats, he is very iconic. In fact, a lot more iconic than Heathcliff himself.
 * 2) He even had his first tv show show in the '80s!
 * 3) * Speaking of which, all of his one-liners he provides as opening gags after the title screen appears are memorable, charming, witty, and hilarious.
 * 4) His imagination and antics from his own show were underrated.
 * 5) He is very hilarious and has spawned many hilarious memes over time.
 * 6) Also, his deadpan sarcasm is hilarious.
 * 7) All of his designs are great, just put aside those CGI trash piles, that is, his live-action Garfield movie duology, and The Garfield Show designs alright?
 * 8) He is obviously smarter than how you'd perceive him with his everyday laziness, especially for a cat.
 * 9) He may seem rude and mean-spirited to his friends, but he still cares about them deep down.
 * 10) Speaking of which, his friend-hate relationship with Odie is even more underrated since even though he kicks him off the table a lot, he still considers Odie as his best friend.
 * 11) On top of that, his jealousy and rivalry with Nermal never got old and the way he tries to get back at him is just satisfying.

Bad Qualities

 * 1) His cash-in, spin-off appearances in the 21st century are boring and inferior, especially when it was all going downhill for him, so fans instead started to disregard his sellout, flanderized appearances in the Garfield movies or spin-offs.
 * 2) He may be considered very unlikable in some of his appearances, especially all 5 of the Garfield movie adaptations, and The Garfield Show, although most of the time, he finds a way to redeem himself.
 * 3) He can lack some common sense at times, but he is still smart enough to solve his own problems with Odie and do many other things.
 * 4) His hate for Mondays and jokes about his laziness have been done to death.
 * 5) * Also, jokes about his fat appearance and eating addictions are also done to death, if not more.
 * 6) * It makes little to no sense for him to hate Mondays since he as a cat, doesn't have a job.
 * 7) His backstory on how he lost so much weight from his first debut with being originally obese was unexplained, and how/why he is able to eat anything other than cat food without any side effects does sound weird and senseless.
 * 8) * It's not really explained how he's able to stand on 2 legs like a normal person, as with a lot of his human-like actions.
 * 9) As much as he loves eating, he can come off as gluttonous & unhealthy at times. This is slightly understandable as he came from an Italian restaurant as described in his origins.
