Do the mashed potato
Do the candied yam,
Do the funky turkey,
’Cause it’s time to jam.
If you don’t want to dance,
Baby, that’s alright,
Do some non-stop shopping,
And work up an appetite,
Make your Thanksgiving one long meal,
’Cause the more you eat,
The more grateful,
You are gonna feel.🍗

The weakest of Garfield's three specials, but it's still tradition every year regardless.

So, are we just going to collectively ignore how Jon just holds his breath until Liz decides to come to his house for Thanksgiving? Because, let me tell you, that's a joke that would not slide nowadays.
If this special came out today, Liz would try to cancel him for being a "nice guy" who can't take a hint. #JonArbuckleIsOverParty
Other than that, the best way to describe GARFIELD'S THANKSGIVING is that it is batshit insane. It throw all these crazy scenarios at us, and I love it. Of course, most of my viewing consisted of me yelling at the screen whenever Jon did something stupid, but that made it all worth it for me.

I bet children watching this must find the lengthy “Orson Wells” bit absolutely hilarious. And that “Rosebud” punchline? C’est magnifique!

if there's one thing the writers knew, it was that kids would love several Orson Welles jokes

Jon didn’t deserve Liz, here she is being a strong independent wahman taking care of animals and then he holds his breath in order to get a date, then makes his gramma makes the dinner and in the end he gets the girl anyway and she smooches him on the face as if he deserved it what the fuck this is bullshit Jon is a sociopath Liz is too good for him I’m outraged >:((((
Also the Rosebud gag was pretty hilarious.
