[theme song starts]

[worm squeaking]

-[bird gasps] -[horn honking]

[sighs] Smell that country air, boys. Wasn't it a great idea to spend a week

-with my brother on the farm? -No.

-Isn't it good to get away from the TV? -No.

And won't it be great to get up at dawn, work in the fields and do chores?

No, no and no.

-And in that order. -[Odie barks happily]

[sighs] Seven days of no TV, no pizza delivery

and Jon calling his brother a name he doesn't like.

"Don't call me Doc Boy! Don't call me Doc Boy!"

Don't call me Doc Boy! Don't call me Doc Boy!

Doc Boy, Doc Boy, Doc Boy!

Told ya.

You'll like working here on the farm, Jon. It's a very efficient operation.

[Doc] That's my farmhand, Ralph.

How's it going, Ralph?

Fine, Mr. Arbuckle! I'm just about to go commence to milking the cows.

Later on, Ralph will collect the eggs that my chickens have laid today.

They are all very productive.

-[chickens chirping] -Sure looks that way, Doc Boy.

Don't call me Doc Boy.

[clears his throat] And later, he or I will milk the cows.

I sell the milk, the eggs, the crops at the local farmers' market.

It's going to be fun to work here... Doc Boy.

-Don't call me Doc Boy. -[Jon laughs]

[Odie panting]

Mmm. [muttering]

[gulps]

-[barks] -You are way too happy to be here, Odie.

I'm gonna start the milking, Mr. Arbuckle, but I wanted to ask you about something.

We got this ad here...

it says: "High definition cable TV, 250 channels

of movie, sports, music,

programs like Super Millionaire, Name That Fish and--"

Forget about it! We've decided not to have TV on this farm!

No TV? That's inhumane.

[gasps] There are some good things on TV.

Maybe, but we took a vote.

I let all the animals vote and we all decided.

-No TV on this farm. -[Odie barking]

Do you want TV here, ladies?

[all] Moo.

Well what do a bunch of cows know?

Just thought I'd ask.

It's settled. No TV on this farm.

[Doc] Come on, Jon.

You can go with me into town to pick up the supplies.

Fine with me, Doc Boy.

Garfield, you and Odie can do the chores while we're gone.

I made up a short list.

"Chores"? Is that anything like work?

[Doc] Oh, and before I forget, Jon...

Don't call me Doc Boy!

[Jon] Doc Boy, Doc Boy, Doc Boy!

[sighs] We have an awful lot of things to do, Ode.

-We'd better get to work. -[barks]

First off, there's raking the leaves.

[country music playing]

Then we got to wash the windows in the barn.

-Then we have to pile up the firewood. -[Odie whimpering]

-Missed a spot. -Huh? [sighs]

[Odie wheezing and straining]

Gee... all my favorite shows are on and I'm missing them.

[muttering]

I know, I know. They voted.

Well then, we'll just have to demand a recount.

-Huh? -You know, "chads"!

[Ralph] This here's how you get milk.

Wouldn't it be easier to go down to the supermarket?

They have a whole refrigerator of this stuff.

How's about if you give it a try, cat?

[honk]

Well this is a strange way to get milk...

Excuse the claws, ma'am.

-[moos] -[screams]

-[sighs] -[laughing]

You think that's funny, do you?

[shouting and slurping]

[sighs]

[guzzling]

Sorry. I'm just bored because there's no TV to watch on this farm.

TV? What's so great about TV?

What's so great?

You can see the world without having to actually get up and do something.

Look at all these great channels, like the all-hopscotch network.

And over here is special programming for cows.

"A cooking show with recipes for the most delicious cud you ever chewed."

Oh, tell me more...

Oh, everything on TV is so great.

Do you really think we'll get TV out here soon?

I'm working on it.

Next up, we have to convince the chickens, then the horses.

[whistling music playing]

[dramatic music playing]

[clucking]

[adventure music playing]

[sigh]

-[rock music playing] -Meow.

[drums beating]

[Garfield chanting]

[laughing]

[neighing]

[roaring]

Good afternoon, I'm Walter Turkeybaster with the news for puppy dogs.

[neighing]

[Garfield laughing]

We must be getting close to your farm, Doc Boy.

We are. And don't call me Doc Boy.

[Jon] Doc Boy, Doc Boy, Doc Boy!

Hey, that truck's from the cable TV company.

I thought you weren't going to order it.

[Doc] That's what I thought, too.

All hooked up, sir.

I didn't order cable TV!

Your farmhand did.

He called, I rushed straight out here. Got here before the pizza delivery guy.

"Pizza"?

Buon Giorno!

I came all the way from the city,

many miles to bring you Vito's fine pies,

as ordered, Doc Boy!

[Doc] I've got to get to the bottom of this.

Don't you call me Doc Boy, either.

[TV] ...so the secret of good, chewable cud

is to start with a top-grade grass and weeds.

Avoid, you know, burs or stickers at all costs.

What are you all doing? You should be giving milk.

[cows hush]

My cows aren't giving milk.

But it's okay, my chickens have been laying lots of eggs lately.

How's the egg production going?

[hush]

My chickens aren't laying eggs. [gasps]

At least my horses aren't lying around, watching TV and eating pizza.

How much do you wanna bet?

[neighing]

-What are you doing? -[hush]

-[groans] -No one's doing any work!

I have to find out who's responsible for this!

I have a feeling I know.

[presenter] And now, Mrs. Edna Flurp, for one million dollars,

can you name that fish?

Looks like Herbert to me.

You know, this living on a farm isn't so bad... now. [gasps]

My cows are watching TV and eating pizza!

My chickens are watching TV and eating pizza!

Even my horses are watching TV and eating pizza!

And do you know what they said to me?

[hush]

I'm ruined! My farm will be out of business.

I'm sorry, Doc.

I poured my life into this farm and...

Doc?

You called me Doc.

Yeah, I guess I did.

Here comes the mushy part.

Do you know how long it's been since you've called me Doc

-instead of Doc Boy? -A while.

[sighs]

[all sigh]

I'm sorry, Mrs. Flurp.

The name of the fish you couldn't identify was Herbert.

[laughs] Told ya.

Now, we're dialing a phone number selected completely at random

to see if some lucky viewer at home can name this fish!

It's a freshwater silver-crusted mango trout.

Huh. I know my fish.

[presenter] If the person we call is watching

and can name this fish,

he or she will win 100,000 dollars.

[Odie muttering]

Don't get your hopes up.

The odds are like a zillion to one against them calling here.

-[phone ringing] -[Garfield] Then again...

Hello?

[presenter] Sir! Are you watching Name That Fish?

No, I don't watch TV.

Oh, yes, I guess I'm watching.

Super! Then for 100,000 dollars, can you name that fish?

[bells chime]

Sure. Freshwater silver-crusted mango trout.

Why?

[presenter] That is correct! That is absolutely correct!

You win 100,000 dollars!

[Jon] Doc! Are you okay?

I'm right sorry about ruining your farm the way I did, sir.

Who needs farming? I'm rich! I'm rich!

I'm sort of rich.

I'm rich enough!

Follow that man, Odie. He's rich! He's rich!

He's sorta rich.

[upbeat music playing]

[chirping]

[cow moos on TV]

[chirping]

The big screen TV, all the pizza,

paid vacations for your animals.

Your prize money will eventually run out.

So, when it runs out, I'll go back to farming.

By that time, everything will be in reruns anyway.

-[Odie panting] -[Garfield gulps]

Good pizza they have out here. [slurps]

[muttering]

Okay.

[glugging]
