Storyline
Did you know
- GoofsIn the opening dream sequence, Jon invites Garfield to eat his way to the tree via a run of breakfast lasagnas. However, when he eats the second one, there is a brief moment when it seems as if someone used the wrong animation cels, as he stops eating that one for a split-second.
- Alternate versionsIn 1991, the TV special aired on CBS with new scenes, including Grandma playing the piano. This is why the copyright date on television airings, videos, and the "Garfield: Holiday Celebrations" DVD read as "1991".

Featured review
Is it just me or do the Garfield TV specials seem to have a real emotional touch to them that gives the whole series higher integrity than the average children's animation. If only the movie were this good.
It's Xmas time once again and Jon takes Garfield and Odie back home to the farm for a good, old-fashioned country Xmas. Originally against the idea, Garfield quickly becomes accustomed when he remembers how much he likes Grandma. John and brother Doc-Boy behave like kids again and can barely contain their excitement at the forthcoming prezzies (who can?) and what on earth is Odie up to in the barn?
The Garfield Christmas Special is a warm, sentimental and meaningful cartoon with great songs (once again) and the kind of everlasting charm most would kill for. Highly recommended!
