[theme music starts]

[sigh] What's with all the re-runs and reality series?

It's a sad reality that TV isn't what it used to be.

[Odie barks]

[Jon shouts] Garfield? Odie?

Don't watch too much TV!

[laughs]

It's bad for your eyes, you know?

I'll blast you, you fiend! [snickers]

[Eddie Gourmand] Now pay attention, please.

Make sure you use light whipping cream,

or else your cookie dough will be too thick.

[Chuck] If the arguments in your house are getting out of hand,

maybe you're just what we've been looking for.

[Rob] Learning is so much fun with Rob the giant chicken.

Now sing along with me... A,B,C...

[host] You're all talk and no answer, Michael.

I'm afraid you are the weakest brain. Goodbye.

[audience howls]

You'd think out of 758 channels, there'd be at least one decent show.

Channel 145...

Virtualodeon. Sounds like a lame sci-fi movie.

Oh well, what the heck?

-[menacing music plays] -Good evening, I am Professor Bonkers,

and I want to welcome you to the beta-testing of Virtualodeon.

A ground-breaking invention of mine

that will change the face of broadcasting television forever.

[Garfield yawns]

Thanks to this state-of-the-art holographic enhancer

that's way too advanced for you to even comprehend,

Virtualodeon will bring the characters of your favorite TV show

right into your very own living room.

And you probably need a pair of those silly 3D glasses.

-Absolutely not! -[Garfield gasps]

That's the beauty of it. Virtualodeon requires no 3D glasses.

Let's get cracking, shall we?

Who hasn't dreamed of exploring the ocean depths without even getting wet?

[Garfield groans] Me.

-[water rippling] -[Odie gasps excitedly]

[Garfield gasps in surprise]

[Odie barks]

[laughs] Hurry, Odie. Get me some tartar sauce.

[Odie screams]

Don't worry, Odie. It's just an optical trick.

It's not really--

[gasps] It's real! It's really real.

[shark roars]

[Professor Bonkers laughing] Did you enjoy it? Good!

That was only the beginning.

Now, has any one of you ever wanted to be on a quiz show?

[host] What's the capital of Bhutan?

Who invented penicillin? How old is Cher?

[Garfield mumbles nervously]

I'm afraid you are the weakest brain. Goodbye.

Virtual pie tastes really nice.

And now...

for our younger audience, how about a little fairy tale?

[Jack] Are you sure this bean is really magic?

[merchant] Sure, kid. Trust me, you won't be disappointed.

I've been had. That's just an ordinary bean.

I have a bad feeling about this, Odie.

[dramatic music playing]

[snickers] Did you really think you could defeat me, wretched fool?

[laughing] I love fairy tales.

And now...

Can't you see I'm in the middle of a TV show?

I'm sorry, sir, there appears to be a slight problem with this program.

The beanstalk is... no longer quite so virtual.

And the network just got a call from a lady

asking if the shark could please let go of her husband.

Oh, dear. [clears throat] Due to some unforeseen problems...

I'm sorry to inform you that this program will be terminated in ten seconds.

Ten, nine...

It seems pretty solid, doesn't it, Odie?

In the meantime, let me remind you that the network is not liable

for any damages this program may have caused.

[plant bubbles]

[groans] I need some coffee-- [grunts]

What's going on here? What's... [gasps]

This has Garfield written all over it.

Garfield! Where are you? Bad, bad cat!

[Garfield] I think I'm inside the TV.

Garfield, I know you're hiding here somewhere.

[Garfield] Help!

No sign of him down here.

[model] George Frika's shampoo will leave your hair soft, silky, and manageable.

-[Garfield meows] -And it will also make it clean.

[Jon] Stupid commercials.

[Garfield meows]

Garfield is so going to be grounded.

No lasagna for a week. No... a year!

-[host] All talk and no answer... -[Garfield meows]

-[Odie barking] -Odie, what's wrong?

Quit barking at the TV. It's just a dumb program with Garfield in it.

[gasping] Garfield? But that's impossible.

[Garfield meows]

What are you doing in there?

[groans] You want me to get the TV program?

Okay, let's see...

Channel 145, Virtualodeon.

Something must've gone terribly wrong and Garfield got sucked into the TV.

I'll call the network. They'll know what to do.

Just hold on tight, Garfield. Okay?

"B" as in "boy" and "banana." "M" as in "morning" and "mustard."

[Garfield] And "Z"... as in "zip it, birdie!"

You've got to help. My cat was sucked into the TV because of your program.

[Professor groans] A most deplorable loss.

[shouting] And you've got to help me get him back.

[sighs] I'll be there as soon as I can.

Meanwhile, try to keep your cat on a safe program...

preferably something uplifting.

He's on some educational show, he's learning the alphabet

with Rob, the giant yellow chicken.

[Agent 008] You won't get away with this, Dr. Mo.

-[Dr. Mo laughs menacingly] -[Garfield groans]

[Dr. Mo] Farewell, Agent 008. [snickers]

[Garfield screams]

[metallic banging]

-[Jon screams] Garfield! -Someone switch to another channel. Hurry!

[Jon and Odie groan]

[Garfield and Agent 008 scream]

[Jon and Odie sigh]

-[sci-fi heroine] It's here! -[tense music plays]

It's here.

[Garfield screams]

Oh, no! I've sent Garfield into a horror movie.

[monster grunts]

[gasps in terror] Help!

Why won't it work?

Oh, no. The batteries must've fallen out when I dropped it.

Odie, help me find the batteries.

[monster grunting]

Hurry!

Oh, no! We're going to be drooled over.

[grunts] If this isn't an emergency, I don't know what is.

-[alarm rings] -[alien groans]

[mechanical clanking]

[Garfield and Agent 008 scream]

-This is pretty bad. -[Jon] Don't worry, Garfield!

I found new batteries.

[Eddie Gourmand] Now, make sure you put loads of this yummy cheese

between each lasagna layer.

[Jon sighs]

Oh hello, kitty cat.

-[doorbell rings] -That must be Professor Bonkers.

-Odie, don't touch the remote, okay? -[Odie barks]

Now that the lasagna's ready,

we can go to work on our lovely Caesar salad.

[groans] Yummy!

[munching]

[laughs]

That savage beast just ate my main course.

[Jon groans] Garfield!

[Garfield screams]

[Eddie Gourmand] Take this! And this! You ravenous monster!

Guys, he's nastier than the alien.

There. This should definitely be safe.

[romantic heroine] Kiss me.

[groans in disgust] Way too much lip gloss.

Thanks to this turbo holo-extractor, I'll pull your cat out in no time.

Now stay still for a minute, cat.

-[Garfield] Not an option right now. -[heroine] Kiss me!

[Garfield screams]

-[Garfield] I... -Thank heavens, Garfield. You're back!

-Yeah. Seems like I made it in one piece. -[heroine] Where you think you're going?

You're not going anywhere until you give me a proper kiss.

[Garfield screams]

[panting]

[Professor] It seems that my extractor has accidentally left the gate open.

[Rob] Sing along with me, or I'll lay an egg right here, right now.

[heroine] Kiss me!

[sci-fi heroine] It's here!

[Jon and Professor Bonkers scream]

-[alien growling] -[Odie barking]

[everyone screaming]

No-one touches my lasagna until I say so!

[everyone screaming]

-[romantic heroine] Kiss me! -[Garfield panting]

Kiss me.

Kiss me!

[screeches]

Oh, my!

[screams]

[electricity buzzes]

Kiss me.

[TV characters buzzing]

[angrily] Switch that TV back on!

[snickers]

The world is not ready for my genius.

[sci-fi heroine] It's here!

Now, sing along with me. or I'll lay an egg right here, right now.

Don't you think that's enough TV for one day?

[romantic heroine] Kiss me!
