  • This is some funny shit!!

  • This brought back many memories

  • happy christmas-tori

  • One of my favorite Specials. I haven't seen it in years. Thank you for uploading it.

    Merry Christmas.

  • ahhh sense i found this on youtube i watch it every year best special ever

  • Doc Boys' Bunny suit has to be an homage to "A Christmas Story..."

  • Dad: "Well, what do you boys wanna do first? You wanna do chores? You wanna eat breakfast? Or do you wanna open presents?"

    Jon and Doc Boy: "PRESENTS!"

    LOL Gotta love those lines!

  • i love this show, I haven't seen it in years

  • they showed it once and twice on ABC family last year and this year now that is classic.

  • my fav christmas special

  • This Garfield Christmas special brings back good childhood memories

  • wow reminds me of my childhood when Christmas meant so much more than stress. (i work retail) it actually brought a couple tears to my eye.

  • all Doc Boy got for Christmas was a toy airplane? lol. I love this special especially the moments with Garfield and Grandma. I really wish they would air this one again. Thank goodness I have all 3 holiday specials on dvd.

  • ya, rudolph and sanata claus is coming to town still on each yr and they were made ages ago.

    why not keep garfiled on too??

    sometimes tyv in canada where i live plays it at xmas

  • might just be b/c i was born in early 80's but it doesn't seem to be a holiday without a garfield (or peanuts) special

  • Copyright says 1991, but it's actually from 1987.

  • Wow this brings back memories. Too bad they don't show this on TV anymore :(

  • IMDB says that it'll be on ABC Family on the 13th!  Yay!

  • They don't show this anymore?! Too bad. this was one of my favs!

  • Ok this has never made sense. Any kid worth his comic would always be the ones up first

  • Have you read the comic version of this Christmas special? It has allot of extra scenes and lines that aren't in the TV special. Dad comments that the boys slept in and they say that someone switched off their alarm clock. Dad then answers with a grin "I know" LOL!

  • The Garfield and Odie moment is too sweet. =)

  • Thank you for sharing this! I looked forward to it each year around Christmas time... I still love it. It's too bad it's never shown anymore.

  • yes thank you i think its sad its not on tv anymore

  • Thank you so much for uploading this.

  • Best Christmas special ever!

  • 2:09 D-I-S-T-U-R-B-I-G-N

    but funny 2:56

  • "a little overeatin never did you any harm" hahaah

  • This video is 22 years old, wow, I used to watch it every year when I was a kid.

    Nowadays Christmas specials are so commercialized that they miss the whole "spirit of christmas" thing completely

  • well it says 1991 in the end

  • maybe it was recopyrighted in 1991 or something? idk imdb says '87

  • Comment removed

  • u speak the truth m8, due to watching these i see how much the new day cartoons lack christmas spirit

  • @tandown1000 i agree, nowadays, cartoons teach children that christmas is about presents, and they forget all about the purpose of it =[ =[

  • i agree

  • this is cute! thats why i love garfield so much!

  • lol. and it sums up christmas families perfectly

  • Although I do not celebrate christmas. I still enjoy watching this classic.

  • "Christmas: it's not the giving, it's not the getting, it's the loving. There, I said it... now get outta here."

    lol Classic Garfield. That should be on a Christmas sweater somewhere.

    Thanks for bringing back some good holiday memories. 5*s

  • I love this it's funny omg I'm on my Iphone it's rocks I don't have any videos and only cuz my parents won't let me put them on it's sucks

  • I have got good news for garfield fans there is a brand new series comming out the fall and I want to say as rummer of 78totol and it will 2 15min epsiodes. And more on the  time and the airdate later.

  • no matter how sad or lonely you are, you come back and watch this episode and it cheers you right up

  • Whoa, when the hoedown music starts, the mom swings her dress a wee bit too high!

  • The lady who played Grandma was perfect for the part.

  • The person who played Grandma is the voice of the SeaWitch her self Pat Carrol!!!!

  • OMG. Cute Garfield hug Odie. I love Garfield. Not you!

  • ive never seen garfiled and odie hug (tears)

  • that letter sounded a little pervie

  • i love watching old shows when i'm older because now i finally get some of those adult jokes.

  • great episode it j makes me think that i still being 7 yrs old when im alrdy 20

    *sigh*

  • ur rock garfield

  • i love odie!

  • 2-57

  • haha^^ this brings back memories whenever they air this on tv..it makes me think of cozy homes in Christmas eve..

  • That's touching....LAV IT!

  • I wish Odie would make me one of those.

  • OMG, Odie's genius! :D And Garfield hugging Odie is just as cute and fun as Homer showing affection to Bart. :D <3

  • My only grandparent left is my maternal grandmother, so I know how granny feels.

  • Odie made a really great gift!

  • man..this brings back so many memories..i remember that everytime this passed on tv i would yell "mommy,daddy,big brother its christmas garfield!!" ahah, and we would all watch this togheter and i would make them sing the songs with me xD..*sigh* good times, good times..*smiles tenderly*

  • garfeild is soooo funny sometimes

  • Wow is it just me or are the christmas episodes kinda sentimental

  • If this first aired in 1987 then why at the end of the credits it says 1991? Where are the oringial credits?

  • I dunno, dude... just going on what IMDB says.

    Turns out the internet is in imperfect place.

  • for the video release, or licence for a new distributor i guess.

    it could even be regional depending on where the tape was from.

  • When the Christmas special aired on ABC Family the credits (crunched) said 1991 so it also aired on tv like that. I thimk that mst3kanita has the 1987 credits but they are not posted yet. I asked about them and are waiting for a reply.

  • Aww!!! Memories!!  Mom had taped this and we watched it over and over again!!

  • I also liked 2:51

  • it was beautifual at 1:04 but i was most touched at 2:34 !!!

  • The story that Grandma tells gets me all teary eyed. Thanks for putting this up.

  • Merry Christman All

  • Aww, that's so sweet when Garfield and Odie hug. :)

    What a great Christmas Special this is!

  • i wanna do 0:17 !!!

  • great memories!

  • This is one of my favorite Christmas specials. It brings out every emotion at different parts of it.

  • merry christmas everybody!!!

  • PRESENTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL  XD

  • this is worth watching, and would be great to watch on chrismas.

  • 2 questions:

    1. How did dad's hat get into that flat little box?

    2. What did mom get?

  • how cute is this! "PRESENTS!!!!!!"

  • aaw, this is too sweet!

  • Too bad Lorenzo Music passed away. It is shame, He is Garfield's voice. Nobody can replace him. Nobody.

  • I think Bill Murray did a good job.

  • uh Bill Murray was not the voice in the cartoons, he was in the movies , but Lozenzo Music did the voice in the cartoons

  • Ok, I admit (which I dont usually do) the ending was quite touching (maybe because it´s Christmas soon and i´m very sensitive man anyways =D)

  • Rip Lou Rawls

    Rip Lorenzo Music

    Rip Grandma's Husband

    And Screw CBS for not showing this classic on TV anymore.

  • Yeah, to hell with CBS not airing this classic on TV anymore.

  • I saw it on ABC Family last week.

  • Perfect, without me knowing it. At least, I got to see it on youtube.

  • Hey, it caught me by surprise, too!

  • Well, I DID see it on the ABC Family channel last week.

  • This is such a great Christmas special! God Bless you for posting this!

  • LoL

  • Am I the only one who misses the 80's?

    Classics like this make me miss that decade more and more.

  • But I just realized this one was from the early 90's.

  • 80's or early 90's...either way, such a great time to grow up. It was a better world. I love all these specials :)

  • Well it was made in 1987. But they showed it in the 90s as well.  Yep, cartoons were SO much better back then.

  • 1987.

  • Thank you so much for posting this. ^_^ I've been thinking about it a lot lately but I never see it on tv. I understand it better now that I'm older but it really takes me back. thanks!

  • This was my favourite Christmas special when I was little. I still remember the words to all the songs!

  • i love how this christmas special runs through without any tension. No one yells at anyone, no one runs away, nobody suffers through hard times. And it still manages to be funny and heartwarming at the same time.

  • SO TRUE!

    i love it,it makes me feel so christmasy

  • Odie is so sweet to Garfield, even though Garfield is always so mean to him.

  • "Christmas: it's not the giving, it's not the getting, it's the loving."

    I reckon that line rings truer now than it ever has.

  • This Christmas special pretty much answers the question as to why Jon never gets laid.

  • love me some garfield i miss all the old cartoons

  • I love this cartoon!

  • Lol! I love doc boys pjs!

  • thanks for the upload

  • this makes me cry...cause i can't celebrate christmas with my grandma anymore.

  • im sorry. what happened? did your grandma die?

  • one of my most fond Christmas memories is watching this along with Charlie Brown Xmas and How the Grench Stole Xmas. Thanks so much for uploading this. I'm all teary eyed now..... think i'll call my grandma. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!

  • I love that ending tune where they sing "Let's have a good old fashioned Christmas...". I don't know about you, but that tune makes me dance to the beat. LOL

  • Thanks so much for uploading this i haven't see it in years it's one of my faves ever!

  • Odie was just excited to show Garfield what he made for him for a christmas gift... Garfield is a sweet cat... Finding the letters and the message at the end....

  • out of all the shows and specials thats not on tv anymore i half to say i miss this one out of them all

  • its supposed to be on ABC Family on December 12th @ 7

  • that was amazing

  • thank you for uploading this. I haven't seen this in years.

  • Garfield Rules

    Garfield Is cool Dude

  • *-*

  • i love when grandma get the old letters

  • I saw this every year around Christmas. I assume that it was on CBS and that it came on right after Wheel of Fortune. Christmas is a great time of year to be with the family, but at the same time, you wish that it would be over and done with. But, Christmas can be a hassle, because come January, people are going to start worrying about dealing with their credit card bills.

  • hey Leave Garfield alone

  • "Now and then.. you're something special"

    Lol
